Faced with already perceptible climate changes, it is increasingly necessary to adopt practices that are more aligned with the concepts of sustainable development. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a method used globally to assess potential environmental impact indicators of the most diverse products and services throughout their life cycle. In civil construction, specifically, the removal of raw material, transportation, construction, use phase, demolition, recycling, reuse, etc. It is used to study the potential of new materials and construction methods, waste management and for environmental certification of buildings and products. The application of this tool enables the diagnosis of each step involved in the process to, consequently, support the decision-making of consumers, companies, and governments. In the recent years, some researchers have been using carbon capture as a method to decrease the CO2 balance for cement-based materials. This article aims to carry out a literature review about the method and its application to evaluate the benefits of carbon dioxide capture for cementitious materials. With this, it will be possible to observe gaps to be filled to improve the coverage at the national and international level. It was possible to perceive that the biggest gaps reside in the data for the inventory, the function unit applied and the lack of standards for this specific application.
