The June 2022 issue of Global Cement Magazine contains the third in CemBR's articles on the EU ETS, this time looking at the proposed Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM). Along these themes there's also an interview with WCA CEO Ian Riley on the topic of carbon capture, plus a look at the use of membranes for this application.
Technical articles take in lifting, weighing, predictive maintenance and condition monitoring. This issue's plant report comes from Cookstown Cement, a newly-independent operator since the start of 2022, while the county report is from the UK. There's also a review of the recent IEEE-IAS / PCA Cement Industry Technical Conference and a look at Myanmar's cement plants of the past.

In April 2022 the World Cement Association (WCA) announced that it was helping cement producers in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region to develop their decarbonisation journeys. Here, Global Cement speaks with Ian Riley, CEO of the WCA, about the state of carbon capture, utilisation and storage (CCUS) around the world.
Despite carbon capture’s relative infancy, it has a part to play in realising the global cement and concrete industry’s aim of net zero CO2 emissions by 2050. One interesting avenue for this technology is membrane carbon capture.
The condition monitoring system OPTIME, part of the OPTIME Ecosystem from Schaeffler Lifetime Solutions, was installed recently at Lehigh Cement’s Union Bridge plant in Maryland, USA, with an almost immediate return on their investment.
