Summary sheet
Installation and operation of a carbon burn-out facility for coal ashes to convert coal fly and bottom ashes into additives for portland cement. This is an innovative waste-management project to address the problem of ash disposal in Mauritius.
The key objective of this operation is to transform waste into a valuable input to another process, which would offer substantial environmental benefits avoiding the disposal/landfilling of ashes which cannot be sustained in the long term due to the decreasing availability of space.
The local environmental competent authority required the promoter to execute an environmental impact assessment (EIA). The position in respect of national legislation will be confirmed at appraisal.
The Bank will require the promoter to ensure that implementation of the project will be done in accordance with the Bank’s Guide to Procurement.
