Abstract-. The goal of this paper is to provide a basis for the sustainable development of the cement and construction industry. Both of them involve environmental impacts as a result of the increased demand of their products and services. There is a concern about the adverse effects to sustainable development, and this have led to develop more efficient technologies in the cement industry, however there are still several problems and associated consequences. Considering the above, the approach used in this paper is the environmental evaluation of cement production from alternative raw materials, in this case zeolites.The methodology known as life cycle assessment (LCA) was used to quantify the environmental impacts. The study results showed that the environmental burden of the zeolite-based cement is higher than the ordinary Portland cement. Nevertheless, this outcome is due to the scale at which the study was conducted, therefore the environmental burden would be diminished if the production process is done on an industrial scale.
