The cement industry is working towards a 2050 climate-neutral Europe

The EU has set out a plan to be climate-neutral by 2050, an economy with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. The transition to a climate-neutral society is both an urgent challenge and an opportunity to build a better future for all.

In March 2019 the European Commission requested an interim an interim CO₂ reduction by 2030, with a drop of -40% carbon emissions.

To help achieve this intermediate objective we have developed oxygen-based solutions proven to reduce emissions and contribute to carbon neutrality.

See here the typical production gains using Air Products' oxygen injection technology:

A flexible, efficient and cost-effective technology that can help improve your kiln operations

• oxygen enrichment can improve the combustion of alternative fuels, allowing kiln operators to increase the level of alternative fuel
• offers true flexibility and cost effectiveness to cement and lime producers
• applicable to all types of kilns
• low installation costs make it an attractive alternative to capital intensive equipment modifications

Numerous customers across the globe have already successfully implemented oxygen enrichment systems in kilns of various sizes with proven results. Oxygen enrichment has helped them reduce CO₂ footprint.

We can do complementary pre-trial benefit evaluation without any commitment from your side.
