Sustainability and circularity – core for the future in the lime industry

Lime is crucial for a sustainable society.
Increasing agricultural production, supply of pure water and healthy living environment, enabling recycling of steel, copper and building debris, delivering safe buildings and last but not least acting as a CO2 sponge, lime is crucial in facing todays challenges of sustainability.
At the same time, the lime industry is considered hard to abate and as such the engineering efforts will be huge.

At Lhoist we are fully committed to make the difference and assure lime was, is and will be available to continue to play this increasingly crucial role.

In the presentation, Frederik Verhelst will expand on how Lhoist and the lime industry
1) is tackelling the avoidable CO2 in production – energy
2) assure future low carbon lime supply by carbon capture
3) Lhoist is already today working on circularity of its full value chain including CO2 by carbon utilisation
4) Lime will contribute to carbon neutrality
