Dust suppression for CSN
When CSN Cimentos added a second line to its Arcos cement works in Brazil, the company called on Redecam for its air pollution control needs. With over 100 filters to be installed, CSN required dust suppression technology that reduced maintenance and replacement costs, as well as improving health and safety and environmental protection practices across the plant.

When Companhia Siderúrgica Nacional (CSN) entered the cement industry by establishing its CSN Cimentos division, it made the strategic decision to increase clinker capacity instead of importing volumes from third parties. The company therefore added a second line with a capacity of 6500tpd at its Arcos plant located in Minas Gerais, Brazil. By installing state-of-the-art technology, CSN’s goal was to produce high-quality cement at a lower operating cost, while improving health and safety and environmental protection.
