After lunch, Tajik engineer Firdavs Hasanov inspects a batching unit at the new Tajik Cement CJSC plant–a 35-hectare facility on Dushanbe's outskirts, powered by advanced Chinese tech and equipment. The old plant, where Firdavs worked for a decade, shut down due to being too outdated, costing too much and polluting the environment. Now, the new plant enables smart production monitoring, meeting Tajikistan's development and export needs while also revitalizing the nation's cement industry.
