Lafarge France installs new rotary kiln at Martres-Tolosane cement plant

France: LafargeHolcim subsidiary Lafarge France has installed a new rotary kiln at its Martres-Tolosane cement plant. The installation is part of a Euro120m project to build a new production line at the site. The work will also increase the plant’s alternative fuels (AF) substitution rate to 80% from 30%.

The company said, “Once completed the work will increase the productivity of the cement plant, while reducing its environmental impact. The plant will be equipped with the latest environmental technologies, thus increasing the share of energy recovery from waste and its use in the production of clinker. The work will reduce energy consumption, reduce the carbon dioxide (CO2) footprint by 25% - 30% per tonne of cement and create local circular economy loops with partners in the greater South-West.” The on-going upgrade to the plant is on schedule for completion in November 2021.
