Argentina: Loma Negra has completed the replacement of an electrostatic filter at its integrated Zapala cement plant in Neuquén with a new baghouse filter. The Gaceta Mercanil newspaper has reported that the company said that the new product has the benefit of being able to work without an electricity supply. Additionally, it is able to operate at higher inlet temperatures than the previous filter, reducing water consumption by approximately 50%. Work began in early 2019 and the total investment cost of the project was US$7m.
