Abstract: To investigate the potential consequences on physical flows of the clinker-to-cement ratio
progressive decrease, as prescribed by the Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI), we developed
a circular multi-industry and multiregional material-product chain model. This paper presents
the modeling mathematical framework and its application to assess the disruptive effects of the
CSI strategy in Canada on domestic production and international trades, and the potential
benefits of developing glass powder as an alternative mineral addition.
