Municpal solid waste sorting plant to RDF (refuse derived fuel) Manufacturing plant

Refuse-derived fuel, known by the acronym RDF,
is the final product of a working process that,
starting from non-hazardous waste,
creates a product that can be used to generate clean and renewable energy.

Once converted into RDF, the materials become a low-cost energy source that can be reused in various sectors. 

Refuse-derived fuel is mainly composed of materials made from petroleum, such as plastics, rubber or other derivatives. 

The RDF production process is obtained through the use of specialised plants and follows various stages:

crushing,
material separation,
pressing,
magnetic separation,
selection 

and final shredding. 

It is a very complex procedure that involves the removal of the organic parts and non-combustible materials from waste (aggregates), so as to create a product that can be easily used as fuel. 

The fuel will then be transported to special facilities where the combustion process will convert the materials into heat and energy.
