MASYC is an ISO 9001-2008 certified company specialising in bulk material handling system, conveyor equipment, crushers and screens, etc.

Screens – Linear Motion / Circular Motion
The linear as well as circular motion screens are single or multi deck structures with a substantial rigid design. The screen body consists of the two side plates with bolted transverse supports and screen mounts. The screen bar is based on an open design concept. For the linear motion screens, the drive is through direct force exciter with cardon shaft or through unbalanced motors. The angle of throw, which depends on the application, is usually 35-60 degree and is adjusted by counterweights. For the circular motion screens, drive is either direct or through cardon shaft and v-belts.

Baghouse Dust Collectors
For a sustainable and safer environment, ‘Masyc Baghouse Dust Collectors’ are used for various applications in the process plants such as cement, coal, chemicals, thermal power plant, paper and pulp, mining and minerals, steel, sugar and food industries, etc. These work on the principle of pulse jet technology. A powerful shockwave passes through the filter cartridge during cleaning. The dust is discharged from the filter surface and the downwards flowing air allows it to fall into the container.

Non Reversible Hammer Crusher
The Non Reversible Hammer Crushers are manufactured based on proven technology and in house strict quality control. Masyc Non Reversible Hammer Crusher is used for size reduction/crushing. Material is broken first by impact between hammer and material and then by a scrubbing action (attrition) of material against breaker plate. Size reduction starts by impact, when the hammer strikes the material as it enters the crushing zone. Shattered fragments are swept down into final crushing zone for further reduction at the pinch points between the hammers and the breaker plate. This crusher is available with adjustable cages.

Toothed Double Roll Crusher
Masyc Toothed Double Roll Crusher is used for size reduction / crushing and material is crushed by high pressure between two rolls. The crushing starts as soon as material enters the crusher and falls on the toothed segment. High pressure on the circulating crushing tooth segment reduces the material into considerable sizes. Material, while passing through both the toothed double rolls gets crushed into desired size. Toothed double roll crusher produces more uniform produced than any other type of crusher.

Reversible Hammer Crusher
The Reversible Hammer Crushers have the unique design feature such as welded casing, screwed liner with high carbon steel plates, hammer heads made of chrome alloy cast steel or manganese steel depending upon the application. Rotor shaft is made out of forged steel, hammer grinding path with wear resistant plates which are mechanically/hydraulically adjustable and dust proof spherical roller bearing.

India Sets Up First Carbon Capture Testbeds for Cement Industry

Five CCU testbeds launched to decarbonise cement production

Published

The Department of Science and Technology (DST) recently unveiled a pioneering national initiative: five Carbon Capture and Utilisation (CCU) testbeds in the cement sector, forming a first-of-its-kind research and innovation cluster to combat industrial carbon emissions.
This is a significant step towards India’s Climate Action for fostering National Determined Contributions (NDCs) targets and to achieve net zero decarbonisation pathways for Industry Transition., towards the Government’s goal to achieve a carbon-neutral economy by 2070.
Carbon Capture Utilisation (CCU) holds significant importance in hard-to-abate sectors like Cement, Steel, Power, Oil &Natural Gas, Chemicals & Fertilizers in reducing emissions by capturing carbon dioxide from industrial processes and converting it to value add products such as synthetic fuels, Urea, Soda, Ash, chemicals, food grade CO2 or concrete aggregates. CCU provides a feasible pathway for these tough to decarbonise industries to lower their carbon footprint and move towards achieving Net Zero Goals while continuing their operations efficiently. DST has taken major strides in fostering R&D in the CCUS domain.
Concrete is vital for India’s economy and the Cement industry being one of the main hard-to-abate sectors, is committed to align with the national decarbonisation commitments. New technologies to decarbonise emission intensity of the cement sector would play a key role in achieving of national net zero targets.
Recognizing the critical need for decarbonising the Cement sector, the Energy and Sustainable Technology (CEST) Division of Department launched a unique call for mobilising Academia-Industry Consortia proposals for deployment of Carbon Capture Utilisation (CCU) in Cement Sector. This Special call envisaged to develop and deploy innovative CCU Test bed in Cement Sector with thrust on Developing CO2 capture + CO2 Utilisation integrated unit in an Industrial set up through an innovative Public Private Partnership (PPP) funding model.
As a unique initiative and one of its first kind in India, DST has approved setting up of five CCU testbeds for translational R&D, to be set up in Academia-Industry collaboration under this significant initiative of DST in PPP mode, engaging with premier research laboratories as knowledge partners and top Cement companies as the industry partner.
On the occasion of National Technology Day celebrations, on May 11, 2025 the 5 CCU Cement Test beds were announced and grants had been handed over to the Test bed teams by the Chief Guest, Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Science and Technology; Earth Sciences and Minister of State for PMO, Department of Atomic Energy, Department of Space, Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions, Dr Jitendra Singh in the presence of Secretary DST Prof. Abhay Karandikar.
The five testbeds are not just academic experiments — they are collaborative industrial pilot projects bringing together India’s top research institutions and leading cement manufacturers under a unique Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model. Each testbed addresses a different facet of CCU, from cutting-edge catalysis to vacuum-based gas separation.
The outcomes of this innovative initiative will not only showcase the pathways of decarbonisation towards Net zero goals through CCU route in cement sector, but should also be a critical confidence building measure for potential stakeholders to uptake the deployed CCU technology for further scale up and commercialisation.
It is envisioned that through continuous research and innovation under these test beds in developing innovative catalysts, materials, electrolyser technology, reactors, and electronics, the cost of Green Cement via the deployed CCU technology in Cement Sector may considerably be made more sustainable.
Secretary DBT Dr Rajesh Gokhale, Dr Ajai Choudhary, Co-Founder HCL, Dr. Rajesh Pathak, Secretary, TDB, Dr Anita Gupta Head CEST, DST and Dr Neelima Alam, Associate Head, DST were also present at the programme organized at Dr Ambedkar International Centre, New Delhi.
