After the flood - Cemex South Ferriby, UK

摘要

The Cemex South Ferriby plant has stood proudly on the Humber Estuary in North Lincolnshire, UK for nearly 80 years. Over the years, the river has been a vital lifeline for the plant to bring in raw materials and export cement. However, in December 2013 the plant was completely overwhelmed by a tidal surge, leaving it with major damage. Here, key plant staff describe the damage, the renovation and the plant's unusual semi-dry Lepol grate production process.
