03 December 2024

Egypt: Assiut Cement, part of Cemex, is set to manage and operate a non-hazardous post-consumer material recycling plant in Tunal-Gabal, Mallawi, Minya, around 230km south of Cairo. According to Yago Castro Izaguirre, Cemex President in Egypt and UAE, the material treated by the plant will produce alternative fuels for the company’s cement plant in Assiut.

The plant will receive 320t/day of material from Mallawi and Deir Muwwas. As well as alternative fuels, the plant will also make organic fertilisers. Rejects will be disposed of in a new sanitary landfill that is currently under construction.
