What is refuse derived fuel?

Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) is a fuel produced from municipal solid waste (MSW) through a mechanical and/or biological treatment process. The waste is sorted and separated into various components such as plastic, paper, metal, and organic waste. The organic waste is then processed to produce RDF. RDF is a renewable energy source and is commonly used as a substitute for fossil fuels in the cement, power, and other industries.

Advantages of RDF

Refuse derived fuel is a sustainable and renewable energy source that reduces reliance on fossil fuels and helps to promote sustainable development. RDF reduces landfill waste and provides a useful end-product from waste materials that would otherwise be sent to landfill. It is a cost-effective fuel source, particularly when compared to traditional fossil fuels. Also, it is a low-emission fuel that helps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality.

Applications

Cement industry: RDF is commonly used as a substitute for coal in cement kilns. This reduces the carbon footprint of cement production and helps to promote sustainable development.
Power generation: RDF can be used as a fuel source for power generation in boilers and turbines. This helps to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and promotes sustainable development.
Other industries: RDF can be used as a fuel source in various other industries such as pulp and paper, chemicals, and ceramics.
