Cement major ACC on Thursday said its cement capacity will now reach 30 million tonnes per annum on completion of its expansion programme.

"Our production capacities were enhanced as the company completed its ongoing expansion programme. In September 2010, we commissioned 12,500 tonnes per day capacity kiln at Wadi, which is the largest cement kiln in the world. A new clinkering line of 7000 tonnes per day was also added at Chanda. Both units were accompanied with new captive thermal power generating units," ACC's CEO and Managing Director, Kuldip Kaura said in its Corporate Sustainable Development report for the year 2010.

With these additions, ACC's cement capacity will reach 30 million tonnes per year, Kaura said.

The company''s sales volume stood at 21.29 million tonnes in FY 10.

We are geared up to serve country's economy that is growing at a rate of 8.5% GDP per annum, Kaura said.

On the environmental front, the abatement of greenhouse gases remains a prime goal. We continued to register a declining trend in specific gross CO2 emissions during the year through improvements in energy efficiency, clinker factor and the use of alternative fuels and raw materials (AFR), Kaura said. .
