Senegal: France-based Fives has detailed the equipment that it will supply for its construction of a new 6500t/day kiln line at SOCOCIM Industries’ Rufisque cement plant in Dakar Region. The company says that it will supply a preheater, in-line Preca calciner, kiln, TGT filter and Pillard Novaflam burner.
SOCOCIM Industries’ parent company Vicat’s chair and chief executive officer Guy Sidos said “Vicat Group renews its partnership with Fives Group through this major project of building a new line with a strong local dimension, employing local workers and contractors.” He added “This plant will eventually eliminate the use of fossil fuels, reduce our energy consumption and support Senegalese local development, making a higher quality product while doubling our production capacity.”
