Just Transition Platform project fiche : low emissions intensity lime and cement (Leilac-1)

Leilac is a technology partner working towards a sustainable future for cement and lime production. Their goal is to develop a cost-effective solution to reduce carbon emissions and enable producers to take immediate action against climate change. The Low Emissions Intensity Lime And Cement (Leilac-1) project has successfully demonstrated the separation of unavoidable process emissions from cement and lime production, without using any additional chemicals or processes. Leilac's unique technology focuses on affordable abatement of unavoidable CO2 emissions through an indirectly heated calcination approach, which efficiently separates CO2 for use or storage. Their technology is designed to operate on various energy sources, including electricity and alternative fuels, making it a flexible and economical pathway to carbon-free cement and lime production.
