Vietnam has huge potential for co-processing of waste in cement industryThe potential for co-processing waste, including non-recyclable plastic, as an alternative fuel in the cement industry in Vietnam is huge. Vietnam is a major cement producer with a capacity of more than 100 million tonnes of cement per year, said Associate Professor Luong Duc Long, deputy president of Vietnam National Cement Association. Data from the Vietnam Environment Administration shows that Vietnam has issued licenses for co-processing wastes for four cement manufacturers of Holcim Hon Chong Cement Factory; Thanh Cong Group Joint Stock Company; Nghi Son Cement Company; and VICEM Ha Tien Cement Joint Stock Company. Thai Ambassador Nikorndej Balankura affirmed that the space demonstrates Thailand's determination in establishing a long-term relationship with Vietnam in terms of education and human resources development, which are the foundation for the countries’ socio-economic development. Vietnam sees the US as one of its leading partners, he said, expressing his appreciation for US support for a strong, independent and prosperous Vietnam.
