Zusammenfassung:The aim of this study is the use of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to evaluate the impact generated by cement manufactory situated in Sour EL Ghozlane, Algeria, which use the dry process to produce cement Portland. The LCA method is used for compiling and examining the inputs and outputs of energy, raw material and environmental impacts directly attributable to the manufacture and functioning of a product throughout its life. It is also used to determine element and energy contributing to each impact evaluated. Potentials impacts are evaluated using the SimaProV.7.1 software and IMPACT2000+ method in this study.
