The Federal Republic of Germany is aiming for climate neutrality by 2045 – the Free State of Bavaria already by 2040. From then on, cement plants may no longer emit CO2. The exclusive use of renewable...
Just over a year ago, partners Holcim Germany, thyssenkrupp Uhde and the Technical University of Berlin announced their collaboration to research the use of the latest amine scrubbing technology to...
The market is showing an increasing demand for highly efficient industrial centrifugal fans with impellers optimised for efficiency. Increased efficiency reduces energy consumption and thus operating...
For decades, the process of designing the mixing proportions for concrete mixtures has been largely empirical and inefficient, due to the complexity of the various internal and external variables at...
Hoffmann Green’s purpose is to act on the climate and the environment in a different way and right now … by designing and producing decarbonated cement products that contain 0% clinker. Thanks to its...
Latest-generation digitalization solutions can boost a cement plant’s efficiency while contributing significantly to the decarbonization of industry. To that end, the chain of production should be...
Green cements are booming, because of the net-zero journey of the cement industry to become carbon-neutral by 2050. But what contribution can green cements provide to reduce CO2 emissions in the...
From 11-12 July 2023 the Green Cement Conference took place in Athens/Greece. About 120 industry experts from Europe, the Middle East, Africa and North America followed the invitation to gather under...
The European cement industry stands at the precipice of an exciting era – the journey towards carbon neutrality. As the industry diligently works towards achieving net zero by 2050, the Carbon...
The modern lime and cement industry places great emphasis on the utilization of alternative fuels as a means to address environmental concerns and optimize resources. Recognizing the potential...
Cement is still the most important building material in our industrial society and will remain indispensable for a long time to come. However, cement production accounts for anywhere from four to ...
Recent technological advances, new consumer demands, and environmental consciousness lead many industries to better application of available global resources for environmental sustainability. There...
Lime manufacturer Lhoist Germany wants to avoid around one million tons of CO2 in just a few years to support the production of green steel with climate-neutral lime. Together with the industrial...
Climate change and its consequences also confront the energy-intensive cement industry with major challenges. The main goal in the coming years is the stepwise decarbonization of production. The...
The performance of a vertical roller mill is defined by a required throughput at a required fineness paired with a low specific thermal and electric energy consumption. The combination of three...
With its Greenkey Solutions, Loesche takes a big step from a pure grinding expert to a technology supplier providing full-scope solutions for the transformation of cement plants into sustainable...
Refuse-derived fuels (RDF) from municipal waste equally offer enormous ecological and economic potential – especially when they contain biomass. Nevertheless, they are hardly used in many countries....
30% of the CO2 emissions are fuel related emissions. While the use of alternative fuels, such as refuse derived fuels is common practice in the cement industry, the use of alternative fuels in the...
Aiming at the technical bottleneck of energy efficiency improvement of the CUCC (Xuzhou) 10000 t/d production line, a solution of pollution reduction and carbon reduction of the pyro system was...
The main challenge of the steel industry for the next decade is the steel production transformation process, starting in Europe. The CO2 intensive blast furnace/basic oxygen furnace (BOF) route will...
The EU Innovation Fund, one of the world’s largest funding programmes for innovative low-carbon technologies, has selected Heidelberg Materials’ pioneering GeZero Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS)...
