The new clinkerization unit is a state-of-the–;art plant that is highly automated and is equipped with the roller press technology for raw grinding that is more power efficient and consumes lesser water as compared to the VRM technology. Dust emissions are lower than those stipulated by regulation. The plant is capable of using a variety of alternative fuels.
