Job Description
As part of its energy management strategy, Lukhwells International Limited aims to advise national, regional and local Governments to improve energy efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, notably through partially substituting fossil fuels by waste-to-energy conversion. Inadequate waste management practices are associated with air, water and soil pollution, and negative impacts on ecosystems, affecting human, animal and plant heath. The use of waste in the cement industry contributes to adequate and appropriate waste management, improved resource efficiency and reduced GHG emissions, thus supporting international climate agreements and the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals such as inclusive and sustainable industrialisation (SDG 9), sustainable cities and communities (SDG
11), sustainable consumption and production (SDG 12), and climate action (SDG 13).
High temperatures in cement kilns enable the destruction of even the most novice substances, creating a win-win situation for the environment: less waste sent to landfills, less risk of fire, less fossil fuels, and less Co2 emissions in cement production.
Lukhwells International Limited is prospecting to submit a proposal for funding and will need the following services:
