Refused Derived Fuel

ACARP Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) is a type of fuel produced from municipal solid waste (MSW). This RDF typically consists of combustible components like plastics, paper, cardboard, textiles, and wood. ACARP aims to convert waste that would otherwise be landfilled into a fuel that can be used to generate energy, reducing waste and providing an alternative to fossil fuels.

Application

Cement Kilns
ACARP RDF can be used as an alternative fuel in cement production.
Power Plants
ACARP RDF can be used in dedicated RDF power plants or co-fired with coal in existing power plants.
Industrial Boilers
ACARP RDF can be used to generate heat and power for industrial processes.

Benefits of ACARP RDF

Cost-Effective Fuel Source

ACARP RDF is less expensive compared to fossil fuels such as coal, oil, or natural gas. The industries that consume large amounts of energy, switching to ACARP RDF can result in substantial cost savings in fuel procurement, reducing overall operating expenses.


Environmental Benefits

Reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions is achieved. ACARP RDF would help reduce reliance on fossil fuels, thereby lowering the carbon footprint of industries. Combusting waste-derived fuel emits less CO2 compared to traditional fuels, especially when considering the alternative emissions from landfilling waste.


Regulatory Compliance

Using ACRP RDF helps industries comply with waste management and emissions regulations, as RDF is generally often classified as a renewable or alternative energy source.


Energy Efficiency

ACARP RDF has a calorific value that can be optimized to meet the energy needs of industrial processes. This makes it a viable and efficient energy source for boilers and kilns. ACARP RDF can be tailored to produce high and consistent calorific values, enabling it to be an effective alternative fuel for energy-intensive industries like cement production, paper mills, and power plants.


Customizable Fuel Properties

ACARP RDF can be tailored to specific requirements, such as moisture content, calorific value, and particle size. This flexibility allows industries to fine-tune the fuel properties to suit their specific kiln or boiler designs, optimizing fuel efficiency and performance.
