Due to the significant amount of cement used during the production process, concrete has a negative impact on the environment during its entire life cycle. The main constituents of Ferrock, a novel iron-based binding substance, are waste products. It is a carbon-negative substance with a compressive strength that is nearly five times greater than that of regular concrete. This study sought to compare the effectiveness of concrete incorporating Ferrock using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) technique. In the Kerala district of Palakkad, in the village of Pandaruthu, the LCA study was carried out. It was decided to conduct a manufacturing and transportation-focused cradle-to-gate life cycle analysis. The study's objective was to suggest Ferrock as a cement substitute that is superior in terms of durability and strength. This is done by doing a life cycle assessment (LCA) on ferrock and ferrock concrete, and comparing the resulting environment profiles with those of OPC and regular concrete, respectively. Thus, it was possible to determine the emissions and energy requirements of Ferrock concrete and regular concrete. The analysis was carried out using OpenLCA software, the Ecoinvent database, and the Ecoindicator-99 impact assessment method. Additionally, laboratory studies are used to evaluate the strength characteristics of concrete containing Ferrock and determine the ideal ratio.
