South Korea’s Ssangyong Cement Industrial Co inaugurated the largest waste heat power generator (WHPG) in a cement plant, according to the Maeil Business Newspaper.

The 43.5MWh WHPG has been installed in the company’s Donghae works in Gangwon Province. The KRW100bn (US$889.4m) is expected to save power costs equivalent to a third of the cement plant’s production costs as it is expected to produce around 280,000MWh of electricity. The WHPG consists of 11 boilers and turbines plus cooling towers, installed on six kilns.
