The May 2015 issue of Global Cement Magazine contains all of the latest global cement news, as well as technical features on carbon capture and usage, new alternative fuels, the use of alternative fuels in Central Europe and a detailed review of a plant visit to Oman Cement Company in Muscat, Oman.

Elsewhere, to tie in with the location of the forthcoming 5th Global Cement Refractories and Maintenance Conference in Istanbul, Turkey, we turn our regular country focus feature to the bustling Turkish cement industry. The issue also has reviews of the recent IEEE-IAS/PCA Cement Conference in Toronto, Canada and the AFCM Conference in Hanoi, Vietnam.
