A New Learning Paradigm for the Lime Industry

ATENEO isn’t just a course — it’s an ecosystem. Based on over 30 years of real-world engineering and operational expertise from leading professionals across the lime industry, ATENEO is designed to deliver structured, modular, and on-demand knowledge across every stage of lime production.

From plant managers and process engineers to project designers and commercial teams, ATENEO is for anyone who wants to:

• Understand how lime is produced and where value is created,
• Navigate complex technologies like PFR, rotary or annular shaft kilns,
• Apply best practices in hydration, fuel switching, and stone preparation,
• Implement digital tools and CO₂ reduction strategies,
• Embrace VisionZero principles for a safer, smarter workplace.

ATENEO unites lime industry experts across functions, enabling access to practical knowledge that enhances production, supports digital transformation, and drives sustainability. It is the active core of the LIMEglobalbrain — a vibrant network of shared experiences and cross-sector collaboration.

Two Learning Paths: Core and Advanced

ATENEO is structured around two content tracks

Core Modules cover the full lime lifecycle — from quarry to kiln, from hydration to application — including topics like raw material quality, reactivity, calcination, and handling.

Advanced Modules reflect the 2025 roadmaps set by EULA and ILA: decarbonization, energy and fuel savings, digital plant control with MOSAICO and iDO, and the integration of safety culture through VisionZero.
