Modern exhaust gas cleaning systems including CO₂ processing

The legal requirements to reduce emissions from cement plants challenge the cement industry to continuously improve its high level of environmental protection. With the entry into force of the revised European Industrial Emissions Directive and the Air Quality Directive, there is a strong focus on the further reduction of industrial emissions. In addition, emerging decarbonisation technologies require the adaptation or introduction of new technologies to clean exhaust gas streams from cement plants. Also, further emission reduction is an ongoing issue, particularly in relation to the legal framework that applies when alternative fuels/raw materials are used.
