GFI Works with Cement Manufacturers
GFI utilizes materials recycled from
othering manufacturing companies to provide recycled materials for
portland cement manufacturers. Using recycled materials for cement
manufacturing is a beneficial and safe way for waste generators to get
rid of their by-products, establishing a long term alternative to land
filling. GFI works with both generators and the cement manufacturers
providing knowledge to help both sides reduce their costs while
creating a closed-loop system for the waste stream.
GFI operates a diatomaceous earth mine that provides low-alkali, high
silica ore for use as a raw material in the production of portland
cement. Specially processed DE is used as a pozzolan ingredient in the
production of high-sulfate resistant, Type 1-P cement.
