The role of Cement Industry in Waste Management Solving Problem

Lukavac Cement, the largest cement manufacturer in BiH and a pioneer in use of alternative fuels in the process of production reduces the use of fossil fuels and increases demands for better waste management in our country.

Using different kind of waste as alternative fuel in our production, we primarily save natural resources and the money for their production and our environment becomes free of waste. It is obvious that BiH has a problem with adequate waste disposal and therefore all our investments into modern devices and facilities, amounting around 20 million EUR in past 15 years, represent permanent solution for the benefit of the entire community. Utilization of waste as alternative fuel in cement industry is very complex task we have been working for several years now, following best world’s practices. Our aim is to constantly increase the share of use of alternative fuels in production, in order to utilize significant quantity of waste, thus contributing, as much as possible, to the protection of the environment”,
