How does cement industry fit into the circular economy?

methane to environment energy efficiency

Municipal Waste options – ecological comparison

Normal landfill 100% no Landfill gas to power 40% 35% Waste to Electricity (incineration) 0% >35% ash disposal Waste to Cement 0% >70% no ash disposal

Co-processing of RDF/SRF in cement kiln environmental friendly

  • Long residence time at

high temperature

  • Combustion rich in oxygen

and active lime

  • High clinker mass stream
  • Ashes of fuel in clinker

replacing raw material Complete destruction organics, no PCDD/DF formation Neutralisation of acid gases, SOx and hydrogen chloride Heavy metals stable embedded Zero waste solution

Best practice example: Poland

  • Cement Industry in Poland already in 2004 replaced 10% of coal by SRF/RDF
  • Landfill diversion only 2% and very low landfilling costs
  • Imports from Germany were the driving force for the early development

Cross border flows SRF@ are essential for market development !

slide-10
SLIDE 10

Best practice example: Poland – Future

  • Poland 2012: 8 mio ton to landfill
  • Capacity: cement plants 1,5 mio tons + 6 incinerators 2015: 1,2 mio tons
  • 2016 ban on landfill of MSW > 6 GJ/t

Classification SRF important for export out of Poland!

slide-11
SLIDE 11

Best practice Romania, EU-country with low landfill tax

Slide 11 AFR Core Group

landfill fee: <10 €/t landfill > 80%

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Opportunity Romania: low costs MBT

Unlike Czech, Poland or Hungary, import of RDF into Romania very difficult

Primary fuel prices Romania are high

Tipping fee for landfill of MSW only around 5 €/t

Low cost biodrying technology applied

AF-rate 2013 Lafarge Romania 44%

SLIDE 13

Low cost biodrying plant for MSW treatment

Manual covering Turning the waste Aeration of the waste

Dry waste (after 25 days):

17 % moisture > 14 GJ/ton

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Best practice Italy, EU-country with high landfill tax

Slide 14 AFR Core Group

landfill fee: >120 €/t landfill > 45%

Italy: not a single country is so suspicious to use waste

 Waste is traditionally a sector in Italy

where government is not in full control

 Permits are to be established locally to all

stakeholders are important for success

 Example of resistance to RDF:  Extensive education of officials and

public required

Final remarks

 To achieve full potention of SRF in cement

industry we need to act case by case:

– Eliminate public and (local) regulator resistance against MBT and SRF co-processing – Bring landfill tax upward for some countries – Work on low cost technologies, adapted to GDP- level of a country to accelarate SRF development

 We do need to keep exchanging our

problems and success stories

 Even with low coal prices use of SRF by

cement industry is feasible, as investment in burning and gascleaning already exist
