FLSmidth on the way to deliver 86% fuel substitution for Bursa Çimento
Alternative fuel is the focal point of an engineering and procurement order, booked in 2019, from Turkish cement producer, Bursa Çimento. With a fully integrated clinker line from FLSmidth – ranging from crusher to the clinker cooler – Bursa Çimento is expecting to harvest significant sustainability and productivity gains.
Situated in north-western Turkey, work at Bursa’s local site is under way with production from the new line set to start at the end of 2022. The order includes, among other equipment, FLSmidth’s Hotdisc Combustion Device, which will help increase the substitution rate to 86%, the highest in Turkey.
Apart from the FLSmidth Hotdisc, the project includes MissionZero flagship products such as the OKTM Raw Mill, a Rotax-2 kiln, Pfister feeders and all new air pollution process filters.
