| Summary: | This set of technical papers was
commissioned by the Cement Sustainability Initiative (CSI)
members in India. CSI is a member-led program of the World
Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD). The
report represents the independent work of the CII - Godrej
Green Business Centre (CII, Godrej GBC), a center of
excellence of Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and the
National Council for Cement and Building Materials (NCB).
The author of each paper is shown after its title. It aims
to identify, describe and evaluate technologies, which may
contribute to increased energy efficiencies and reduced
greenhouse gas emissions from cement production in India
today and in the longer-term. The results have been reviewed
by CII, NCB, CSI member companies and stakeholders like the
International Energy Agency (IEA). All papers follow the
same format, outlining the current status of the technology,
the impact on energy consumption, anticipated benefits from
implementation, the CO? reduction potential, main parameters
influencing implementation, cost estimation, and the
conditions, barriers and constraints of implementation. For
the more futuristic technologies, where quantification is
difficult, a qualitative summary is provided instead,
indicating those technologies felt to be promising for
future implementation and emissions reductions potential. In
these papers, only the anticipated impact on energy
consumption and barriers to further development can be
shown. In every paper, a range of potential thermal and
electrical savings is provided; this range has been reached
through consultation with technical experts. Where INR costs
are indicated, approximate USD equivalent costs have also
been given, using exchange rate USD 1 = INR 50. |
