Paraguay: INC’s kiln returns to normal service

Industria Nacional del Cemento (INC) announced that its kiln at the Vallemi works is back up and running since Tuesday after a six-day stop due to technical issues.

At present the company is carrying out a fuel switch that will see the plant operate with petcoke, forest waste and coal among others. The change in fuel will allow INC to save over US$22m. The cement producer said around 40 per cent of the work oj the project has been carried out to date.
