Madhya Pradesh power stations struggling to dispose of fly ash

06 December 2018

India: Power stations owned by the Government of Madhya Pradesh are struggling to dispose of fly ash. The power companies were required to dispose of all fly ash in applications such as cement production or construction projects by the end of 2017, according to the Times of India newspaper. However, less than 20% of fly ash has been disposed of from the Shri Singaji Thermal Power Station (SSTPS) and only 20% fly ash has been disposed of at the Satpura Thermal Power Station (STPS).

An employee of a power plant quoted by the newspaper said that the power companies were able to dispose of fly ash where cement plants were nearby but that they found it a ‘great struggle’ elsewhere. A K Nanda, the managing director of the Madhya Pradesh Power Generation Company, said that the STPS had received no interest for an expression of interest since mid-2018. He added that the company was also approaching cement-based industries through social-media channels.

Global Carbon Budget forecasts CO2 emissions to grow by 2.7% in 2018

06 December 2018

Australia: Research by the Global Carbon Budget (GCB) forecasts that CO2 emissions will grow by 2.7% year-on-year to a 37.1 ± 2 Gt CO2 in 2018. This follows a rise of 1.6% to 36.2Gt after a three-year hiatus with stable global emissions. The 2018 forecast is based on preliminary data for the first 6 – 9 months indicate a renewed growth in fossil CO2 emissions based on national emission projections for China, the US, the European Union (EU) and India and projections of gross domestic product corrected for recent changes in the carbon intensity of the economy for the rest of the world.

In 2017 the GCB estimates that cement sector constituted 4% of global fossil CO2 emissions, a rise of 1.2% from 2016. Emissions are expected to grow by 4% in China in 2018, in part due to a 1% rise in cement production. In the EU emissions are projected to fall by 0.7% with stable cement sector emissions. In India emissions are forecast to increase by 6.3% with a 13.4% rise in cement sector emissions.

Fossil CO2 emissions are based on energy statistics and cement production data. The research makes its estimate of emissions from the cement industry using a method adapted from a paper published by Robbie M Andrew of Norway’s CICERO Center for International Climate Research in 2017.
