Alternative Fuel from Waste
Alternative Fuel From Waste Municipal waste has always been seen by the public as the foul-smelling waste that nobody wants near home. In the last decades due to the cost increasing of raw materials for heating and electric energy production, it has begun to evaluate and use waste as an “alternative” energy source. But we should not forget that the greatest resource in the waste ...

Producing fuels from waste: giving plastic waste a new life
There is a valorization process very much in demand nowadays, and that is waste-to-fuel. Waste-to-fuel is the transformation of waste into fuel, by means of pyrolysis. Pyrolysis is a common technique, designed for the thermal processing of waste to generate a usable by-product. The pyrolysis equipment consists typically of an externally-heated rotary kiln operated in the absence of oxygen. ...

Fuel Processing for RDF, TDF and SRF
Since the beginning of the 21st century, more and more waste has been generated. In order to cope with the threat to the environment caused by the increase in waste, people have begun to use waste as fuel that can be burned in boilers for power generation or heating. We divide the fuel from waste into RDF, TDF, SRF according to different components and processing method of the waste. ...

Why airlines keep pushing biofuels: They have no choice
The number of global fliers is expected to more than double in the next two decades. In order to carry all those extra passengers, airlines are turning to a technology very few can make work on a large scale: converting trash into fuel. They have no other choice. As people in countries such as China, India and Indonesia get wealthier they are increasingly turning to air travel for vacation or ...

RDF Plant Cost
Alternative fuel RDF (refuse derived fuel) or solid secondary fuel is a fuel obtained from waste. RDF contains high-calorie waste components such as plastic, paper, cardboard, textiles, rubber, leather, wood, etc. RDF can be used as main or supplementary fuel in furnaces of cement plants, thermal power plants, metallurgical furnaces. The calculations performed showed the expediency of replacing ...

Tire Derived Fuel (TDF)
Tire-derived fuel (TDF) is a fuel derived from waste tires of all kinds. TDF is a major use for scrap or waste tires as fuel. This may include whole tires or tires processed into uniform, flowable pieces that satisfy the specifications of the end-user. Waste tires are used as fuel either shredded or whole depending on the type of combustion unit. Tire Derived Fuel (TDF) Markets TDF is the oldest ...

Leveraging microgrids in waste-to-energy applications
What do the waste-to-energy and real estate sectors have in common? In both, location is the key factor influencing the bottom line. Although waste-to-energy conversion technologies continue to improve their efficiency, energy will always be worth more when it is in the right location. With rising energy costs and increasing concern over electric power reliability and sustainability, the ...

Is it possible for alternative fuels to replace traditional fossil fuels as the mainstream?
If you were a coal-burning company, would you like to choose $60 alternative fuels per ton or $180 coal fuels per ton? Of course, such a direct comparison is not reasonable because alternative fuels differ from coal in terms of calorific value of combustion and disposal costs. Let us then calculate the actual economic benefits of alternative fuels compared to fossil fuels (as represented by coal) ...
