JAKARTA - PT Semen Indonesia (Persero) Tbk through its business unit PT Solusi Bangun Indonesia Tbk (SBI) continues to encourage the implementation of energy efficiency and conservation in the company's production process.
GIS utilizes urban waste in a facility located in Tritih Lor, Jeruklegi District, Cilacap Regency, Central Java, as an alternative fuel (RDF) in the manufacture of cement at the SBI factory in Cilacap.
"Utilizing waste into alternative fuel is a solution for the maintenance and better management of the community environment", said SIG Corporate Secretary, Vita Mahreyni, in a statement quoted by Antara, Thursday, September 29.
Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) technology is a sustainable waste management effort that can convert waste into renewable alternative energy and can reduce CO2 emissions.
According to Vita, the municipal solid waste (MSW) facility in RDF is capable of managing 160 tons of domestic waste per day, which can produce 70 tons of RDF. Meanwhile, RDF will be able to replace the use of coal up to 5-6 percent.
For this effort, the company won the 2022 ASEAN Energy Awards (AEA) as the 2nd Runner Up, the Large Industries subcategory, and the Energy Management in Buildings and Industries category.
