What is SRF
Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) is a type of fuel that is derived from the processing of non-hazardous waste.
It is a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative to traditional fossil fuels. The production of SRF typically involves the recovery of valuable materials from waste streams, such as non-recyclable plastics, paper, cardboard, textiles, and wood.
The process of producing Solid Recovered Fuel usually includes shredding and sorting of waste materials to remove contaminants and separate different types of waste. The remaining material is then processed into a homogeneous fuel with a specified particle size. This fuel can be used in various industrial processes, including cement kilns, power generation, and other applications where energy is required.
One of the advantages of SRF is that it helps divert waste from landfills, reducing the environmental impact of waste disposal. Additionally, using SRF as a fuel source can contribute to a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to burning traditional fossil fuels. It is important to note that the composition and characteristics of SRF can vary depending on the feedstock and processing methods used in its production.
