FLSmidth focus on the environment at new Indian cement plant

From crusher to packing plant, the project is designed to optimise power and fuel efficiency. The purpose is not only to reduce operating costs, but also to achieve the smallest possible environmental footprint. To meet the high ambitions for the project, Dalamia Bharat selected FLSmidth to deliver the complete full flow sheet of the latest equipment and machinery including; electrical, instrumentation and automation equipment.

Dalmia Bharat has been one of the top performing companies in cement manufacturing since 1939. The company now controls an expandable capacity of 26.1 million tonnes of cement, which is among the highest capacities in the Indian cement industry.

Once completed in 2019, the new integrated cement plant will set new standards for Indian cement production both in terms productivity and its environmental impact.

“We have worked closely with Dalmia Bharat for the past many years. This is a company strongly committed to its environmental responsibility. We are very proud to have been chosen to partner in this project, which will increase the company’s overall output and lower their cost of operations, all with a minimal impact on the environment during the lifetime of the plant,” says Hari TR, Head of Cement at FLSmidth in India.
