Oman: Oman Cement has launched a project at its Misfah plant in Muscat Governorate that uses industrial waste as fuel to reduce reliance on natural gas. The company installed a shredding machine to prepare industrial waste as fuel and awarded a contract to supply and install a system to feed the material into Kiln 1. The project reportedly forms part of the producer’s strategy to increase efficiency, increase capacity and reduce fossil fuel use and aligns with Oman Vision 2040 and the company’s decarbonisation targets. In 2024, Oman Cement said it was investing in a waste-to-energy designed to utilise refuse derived as an alternative energy source.
