To curb the burning of mazut, an eco-unfriendly fuel, in Larestan Cement Factory in Fars Province, the complex was connected to the national gas grid on Sunday, managing director of Iran Gas Engineering and Development Company said.
“The plan, which entailed laying a 35-km 8-inch pipeline, is expected to supply the plant with 20 million cubic meters of gas annually,” Reza Noshadi was also quoted as saying by Energy Today website.
Thanks to the pipeline, burning mazut in the plant will be cut by 25 million liters per annum, he added.
