Spain: Cementos Portland Valderrivas has partnered with the University of Seville to build a non-hazardous waste processing plant to produce refuse-derived fuel (RDF) at its Alcalá de Guadaira cement plant in Seville. The producer hopes that, when commissioned, the installation will help to 'significantly' reduce the plant's energy costs and CO2 emissions by substituting its RDF for petcoke in cement production.
Along with a renewal to the Alcalá de Guadaira plant's mining lease, the total cost of the project is Euro6m.
