Jovein Cement wins environmental award
28 January 2016Iran: Jovein Cement has won an award for most environmentally conscious cement manufacturer in Iran.
Reasons for winning the award included: the cement producer's efforts to extend the lifetime of its kiln refractory bricks by optimising the rate of production and thereby the energy consumption of natural gas; the recycling of refractory materials; investing in installing an online pollution analyser on the plant's main exhaust; using electro-filter technology to reduce the amount of cement dust and other general pollution released to the neighbouring community.
Future plans by Jovein Cement include the installation of a waste heat recovery system to recycle up to 30% of the heat generated by the plant. As an ancillary benefit the plant will also be able to heat water used at the site.
