Lucky Cement Limited has inaugurated its fifth Waste Heat Recovery Unit in Pezu district Lakki Marwat in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Under this project, two cement production lines with a daily output of 2,400 tons were used, which will offer installed power of 10 megawatts. The inauguration ceremony was attended by Muhammad Ali Tabba, CEO, Lucky Cement Limited, and other senior management of Lucky Cement, says a press release issued here on Monday.
Previously, Lucky Cement had four Waste Heat Recovery Plants, two in Pezu and two at the Karachi Plant. The fifth plant became operational in collaboration with Sinoma Energy Conservation Ltd, China. The design of WHR plants hinges around the idea of encapsulating all the wasted heat from the production system and using this heat to generate steam from boilers which eventually run the turbine engines, thus producing electricity.
Speaking on the occasion, Muhammad Ali Tabba, CEO Lucky Cement Limited, said, "We, being one of the leading cement manufacturers in Pakistan, have the responsibility to reduce energy consumption and improve the environment. With the launch of our fifth WHR plant, we aim to do just that."
Earlier this year, Lucky Cement received the 6th CSR Award for its Waste Management & Recycling policies at the 9th Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Summit, organised by National Forum for Environment and Health. The company also won another award for its stakeholder & employee engagement efforts at the 6th Corporate Social Responsibility Summit & Awards ceremony, organised by The Professionals Network.
