UAE: LafargeHolcim subsidiary Geocycle UAE has extended its reduction cell pot lining supply contract with Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) by 10 years. Emirates News Agency has reported that during the contract’s previous term EGA supplied Geocycle UAE with 160,000t of spent pot lining for use in production at LafargeHolcim cement plants. The partners already plan to transport a further 40,000t of pot lining from aluminium production in 2021 and 2022, both to Geocycle and directly as pre-processed material to LafargeHolcim’s Fajairah cement plant. EGA began spent pot lining processing at its new Al Taweelah pot lining crushing facility in 2020.

Geocycle UAE general manager Medhat Ismail said, "At Geocycle UAE and LafargeHolcim, our vision of enabling a circular economy starts with the preservation of natural resources by substituting fossil fuels and raw materials with waste or by-products. We aim to bring society a step closer to a zero-waste future. To achieve this goal, we need progressive partners such as EGA."
