A second industrial byproducts processing line has been inaugurated at the Cemento Cruz Azul plant in Tepezalá, Aguascalientes. The new facility, which cost US$8.5m, will create 100 jobs and convert over 66,000t/yr of post-consumer materials into energy for the cement plant’s processes.
Víctor Manuel Velázquez Rangel, president of the board of directors of Cooperativa Cruz Azul, said “This is the result of joint work, teamwork and a shared vision with the State Government, which has always been concerned about the carbon footprint, sustainability and the environment. With this project we leave testimony of our great commitment and demonstrate that innovation and technology can go hand in hand with the preservation of the environment.”
