AM0033 — Use of non-carbonated calcium sources in the raw mix for cement processing
About this methodology
Projects replace carbonate-containing raw materials in clinker production with non-carbonated calcium sources. The method measures reductions in process CO2 released when the raw materials are heated.

How methodology v3 reads projects of this type
What CarbonMeld reads
- shown
Leakage: the methodology sets rules for it (AM0033 v02 Leakage, p. 7). CarbonMeld reads it in the project's documents. CM-F-AM0033-LEAKAGE
A confirmed investment analysis A-INVEST
The documents show a project-level additionality test, the validation confirmed it, and it is an investment analysis (a numeric test of the project's finances with and without carbon revenue).
Set by the methodology or the programme, not assessed by our current method
- not assessed
No legal requirement for the activity: the methodology sets rules for it. Our current method does not assess it. CM-F-AM0033-REGULATORY-SURPLUS
- not assessed
Sustainability of the feedstock: the methodology sets rules for it in some cases (AM0033 v02 applicability, p. 1). Our current method does not assess it. CM-F-AM0033-FEEDSTOCK-SUSTAINABILITY
- not assessed
Social safeguards and consent of communities (FPIC): any such rules come from the programme, not the methodology. Our current method does not assess it. CM-F-AM0033-SAFEGUARDS-FPIC
Not applicable to this type — never a gap in our current method
The criterion does not apply to this methodology. Our current method never counts it as a gap.

Projects using AM0033
Browse 6 published projects using AM0033, listed alphabetically. There is no ranking for this methodology yet: it appears here automatically once 5 of its projects not in the pipeline or under validation are rated. Open a project to view its registry details and the analysis available for that project.
Which registries list projects under AM0033?
In CarbonMeld's data, AM0033 projects are on one registry: CDM (6 projects, 5 registered).
| Registry | Projects | Registered | Projects list |
|---|---|---|---|
| CDM (UNFCCC) | 6 | 5 | See the list |
Counts of project records in CarbonMeld's data, with or without a CarbonMeld analysis. «Registered» counts the records whose current registry status is «registered», as last read (15 November 2026); projects in a later status, such as awaiting verification approval, late to verify or completed, are not in that column.
