GRR-Keystone operates a cement manufacturing facility on 850 acres in Bath, PA.  Since 1976, Keystone has blended high-BTU hazardous waste-derived liquid fuels as a supplement to coal in its cement manufacturing process.  Keystone was the first cement company in the United States to have an energy recovery program of this type.  GRR-Keystone’s two cement kilns beneficially use 17 million gallons of waste-derived fuel annually to replace approximately 50% of the coal requirement. 

In 2006, Keystone embarked on a $230 million modernization project.  Upon completion in 2010, the expanded facility will enable Keystone to better serve the growing needs of its customers while at the same time reducing plant emissions.

The current hazardous waste management units include four waste fuel storage tanks with a combined capacity of 93,000 gallons.  All tanks are above ground, nitrogen blanketed, and agitated.  GRR-Keystone also operates an on-site laboratory and offers off-site rail transfer facility services.
