|
| | In recent years, the adoption of alternative fuels has become a key factor in the sustainable evolution of the lime industry. In particular, the use of biomass is emerging as an effective solution to reduce environmental impact while ensuring a more flexible and resilient energy supply. These fuels primarily offer the advantage of being environmentally sustainable, significantly contributing to the reduction of the industry‘s carbon footprint. Additionally, they allow producers to diversify energy sources, reducing dependence on traditional fossil fuels while ensuring greater operational flexibility and cost optimization. Biomasses could moreover represent a cost-effective option, especially in regions where it is readily available at competitive prices. Currently, the market offers a wide range of biomass sources, from virgin wood to agricultural waste and residues from the wood processing industry. Each type has specific physicochemical properties that must be carefully analyzed and assessed—not only to optimize combustion and calcination processes but also to ensure efficient handling, feeding, and dosing within lime plants.
