CIMAF Ghana invests in managing environmental impact

CIMAF Ghana Ltd has allocated 15 per cent (US$9.9m) of its US$66m investment in the country to manage the environmental impact of its production facilities, according to Ghana Web.

The company's 1.1Mta plant near the port of Tema was fitted with bag filters to control dust emissions and a gas analyser was installed to monitor the exhaust gas from the stacks, according to Mr Mohammed Bennis, country general manager, CIMAF.

"This huge plant does not emit dust into the environment. We have dust filters which sucks the escaping dust. We have covered all the stock farms and we recover and canalise all rainwater," said Mr Bennis.
