The company Sai IGES Power Private Limited is involved in manufacturing of Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) blocks in Ahmednagar, Maharashtra India. The core of this technology is the composition of raw materials and its chemistry, with fly ash from thermal plants mixed with lime, cement, gypsum and plaster of paris which enable the blocks to acquire the mechanical properties required during the hydration and curing process without being sintered.

The prime objective of the project activity is to produce a high-quality walling material and wall insulating building material by adopting an efficient low energy intensive brick production process instead of a high energy intensive brick production process like Clay Brick Bull’s trench kilns (BTKs) and positively impact the energy consumption pattern both at the brick production level and at the building operation level.
