Combustion systems vs. World tendency
The clock is ticking: oil, coal and gas will not last forever. Cimprogetti is prospecting new technologies to produce lime in suitable environment. We are currently operating kilns with non-traditional fuels such as sawdust and lean gas... the Cimprogetti’s answer to world demand for “greener plants”.
World Lime Production
In 2014, the leading lime producing countries were China, USA, India, Russia and Brazil. Although there is an increase in the use of lime in the mining and environmental industry worldwide, there is a decline in the metallurgical sector.
