Schwenk will install a WHR system in Allmendingen, Germany
Germany’s Schwenk Group will use Orcan Energy’s ORC technology at its Allmendingen plant for waste heat recovery (WHR). The previously unused waste heat from the clinker cooler shall be used to recover over 8.5 million kWh of energy and to avoid 13200 tons of CO2 annually. 5 modular ORC (Organic Rankine Cycle) units will be used to produce electricity as well as to dry fuels from alternative waste and to generate hot water. The ORC plant will be handed over on a turnkey basis. Implementation of the project has begun with planned completion in the first quarter 2025.
Denmark’s Aalborg Portland CCS-project selected by EU
Cementir through its subsidiary Aalborg Portland in Denmark and Air Liquide, have launched the ACCSION joint decarbonisation project. The CCS project has been selected by the European Commission to receive € 220m in project support under the EU Innovation Fund to capture 1.5 Mta of CO2 from the plant (photo). The CryocapTM technology by Air Liquide will be used to capture, purify and liquefy approximately 95% of the CO₂ emitted by the cement kilns. The captured CO₂ would be integrated into a new pipeline infrastructure to onshore CO₂ storage facilities, planned to be operational by the end of 2029.
Japan’s cement exports up +23.7% in 9M 2024
In the first 9 months in 2024, Japan's cement exports increased by +23.7% to 5.914 Mt, after 4.782 Mt in the same period last year and 7.721 Mt in the year before.
Ukraine’s cement exports up +33.0% in 9M 2024
In the first 9 months in 2024, Ukraine's cement exports increased by +33.0% to 1.326 Mt, after 0.997 Mt in the same period last year.
India’s Dalmia Bharat plans to expand in Madhya Pradesh
Dalmia Cement plans to set up a new cement plant in Madhya Pradesh, India, with a capacity of 4.0 Mta. The new plant will require a substantial investment of Rs 3,000 crore, making it the first unit in the country to run on 100% renewable energy. With double digit growth rates, Dalmia is one of the fastest growing cement companies in the country, planning a cement capacity of 75 Mta by FY 2027 (photo: flagship plant Ariyapur, Tamil Nadu). However, for the new plant in Madhya Pradesh no time schedule has been given yet.
Holcim in France selected by EU Fund for cleantech project
default Holcim has been selected for a grant from the EU Innovation Fund for its carbon capture and storage (CCS/CCUS) project in Martres-Tolosane (photo), France. This grant for the breakthrough CarboClearTech project in this cement plant brings the number of Holcim’s large-scale EU-supported CCUS projects to seven, advancing the European Green Deal. The EU Innovation Fund is one of the world's largest funding programs for innovative technologies. This year, the Fund selected 85 large-scale clean-tech projects out of 337 submitted to receive grants totaling EUR 4.8 billion, including three projects in Holcim’s sector.
