# World’s first hydrogen trial in UK demonstrates pathway to net zero cement | Agg-Net

> Hanson UK, with the Mineral Products Association and government funding, ran a trial at its Ribblesdale cement kiln in Lancashire on a fully net-zero fuel mix. The mix combined hydrogen with meat and bone meal and glycerine. Full adoption could save about 180,000 tonnes of CO2 a year there.

## Why it matters

Using meat and bone meal as kiln fuel is a small new industrial outlet for rendered by-products. The effect on feed MBM supply and price is likely minimal at this stage.
