Environment Sustainability Practices inBangladeshi Cement Industries
Cement industries are responsible for huge amount of air pollution, which is harmful forrelevant workers health. According to a new questionnaire-based study, Bangladesh's cementindustry has limited opportunities to follow green manufacturing practices. The aim of thispaper is to investigate the situation of group wise environmental sustainability practices inBangladesh, with the goal of assisting cement manufacturers in Bangladesh to improve theirenvironmental sustainability practices in their manufacturing processes.In this paper, wepresent a comparison of cement manufacturers across Bangladesh's three major divisions.Ithas been discovered that a large number of employees from three departments are unaware ofenvironmental concerns and sustainable industrial activities. Just 53 respondents are aware ofthe environmental concerns surrounding cement production, and their customers are theprimary sources of such knowledge. Furthermore, only 42% of respondents used the ISO14000 environmental quality control scheme, despite the fact that 53% of respondents usedsome kind of green manufacturing. Moreover, the causes for non-adoption as well as2environmental factors affecting sustainable industrial practices have been established. Thelack of financial resources, a lack of understanding and information about environmentalissues, a lack of demand from customers and stakeholders are all reasons why such practiceshave not beenadopted. In order to follow greenproduction methods, it is essential to useenvironmentally friendly cement ingredients, recycled-fiber packaging, biodegradablepackaging,and environmentally friendly waste management systems and technologies.
