Alternative Fuels Special Issue 2021
The Alternative Fuels Special Issue from Global Cement is a 96 page report containing original, exclusive, case studies, markets, opinion and analysis articles on the use of alternative fuels by the cement and lime industries.
It includes articles on how to start with alternative fuels to how the sector's low-CO2 future will affect plant design. There are shredding, dosing and burner case-studies, plus a look at the effects of rising biogenic content, pelletised fuels and how our sector can help to eliminate some of the world's most persistent pollutants. There is also insight into what drives regional fuel trends, with comment from the Middle East, the US, Europe and China.
The final print issue will be distributed to delegates at the 15th Global CemFuels Conference on alternative fuels in the cement and lime industry, on 16 - 17 February 2022, as well as to selected readers worldwide.
