VDZ's Education and Training Programme 2023/24 ranges from the teaching of technical basics to the imparting of special technical knowledge and education courses for managers. VDZ offers individual, tailor-made seminars on the topics of clinker and cement production, maintenance, quality assurance, environmental protection and concrete technology. Almost all seminars can also be designed and implemented as inhouse seminars according to individual customer requirements. In this new brochure you will also find two new seminar topics reflecting current developments in the cement and concrete industry.

In keeping with our time-honoured tradition, this year's edition of the "Environmental data of the German cement industry" again provides an in-depth insight into the use of raw materials, energy input and the various emissions produced by German cement manufacturers. This encompasses not only the dust and dust bound constituents, but also the inorganic and organic exhaust gas compounds. A further aspect of our environmental data is information on carbon dioxide emissions, the reduction of which is a particular focal point in connection with the decarbonisation of cement production.

Forschungsbericht zum IGF-Projekt 20514N, in dem die technisch-wissenschaftlichen Grundlagen einer Minderung der Quecksilberfrachten im Abgasweg von Zementdrehrohrofenanlagen durch eine sorbensunterstützte Staubausschleusung sowie Möglichkeiten der Optimierung untersucht werden sollten.

The "Environmental data of the German cement industry 2020" prove that cement manufacturers are facing up to the environmental challenges of our time and informing the public about them in a transparent way. The focus is on the topics of climate neutrality by 2050, saving primary raw materials, and air pollution control.

With its "Education and Training Programme 2021/22" VDZ supports the efforts of the industry to be successful in the long term through consistent qualification of the workforce. VDZ ensures efficient and practical learning by providing a wide range of vocational training courses and (online) seminars covering technical basics, special technical knowledge and education courses for managers.

VDZ's environmental data reflect that the German cement industry invests decisively in plant optimisation. This keeps them in a leading role worldwide in terms of environmental compatibility, alternative fuels and plant energy efficiency.
