Co-processing Case Studies

Co-processing plays a key role in the cement industry’s net zero transition. By safely and efficiently using society’s non-recyclable waste as fuel in cement kilns, producers reduce reliance on fossil fuels, lower CO₂ emissions, and divert valuable materials from landfill.

These case studies show real-world examples from across the global cement and concrete industry, showcasing how co-processing is being implemented at scale, helping to reduce CO2 from fossil fuels, and helping to solve global waste.
