RDF (Refuse-Derived Fuel) is considered cleaner than coal due to its: - Lower sulfur content - Lower ash content - Lower heavy metal content - Lower carbon emissions - More efficient combustion This makes RDF a more environmentally friendly alternative to coal, although it is still not entirely clean or renewable. Impressive though.

This is an interesting concept from an accounting and administrative perspective. While RDF offers potential cost savings through reduced coal use, a thorough cost-benefit analysis would be crucial. This would consider factors like transportation costs, plant modifications for RDF processing, and potential long-term maintenance needs.

The conversion of plastic and tire waste into an energy carrier (e.g. heating oil, diesel, grill coke, syngas) It is a social advantage if small villages are supplied with locally produced energy, thus creating local jobs for the local energy-using population from waste collected locally, small equipment for micro power plants can also be manufactured locally Our innovation in environmental protection is the use of microwave technology The pyrolysis of waste in vapor microwave plasma. The main advantage of steam plasma reactors is that there is no nitrogen in the microwave steam plasma, the plasma reactor, the gasifier and the plasma afterburner chamber, so there is no nitrogen oxides is 40 times more toxic CO, minimum carbon dioxid and odorless the flue gas. The hydrogen introduced into the reaction space with the microwave steam plasma slows down the reactions of gaseous sulphur, phosphorus and free chlorine formation to remove in the gas purification unit. When reacting with chlorine-containing substances, microwave steam plasma does not produce dioxin, which is one of the most toxic substances.

The decades-long decline in waste incineration has been partly reversed by well-designed waste-to-energy projects. Typically, wastes are decomposed at temperatures above 1450oF, generating hot flue gas.  Heat is recovered as high pressure steam, which is used to produce electricity. The downside is that incineration produces HAPS, including PM2.5 and PM10, carbon monoxide, acid gases, nitrogen oxides, PFAS, heavy metals and dioxins. Tri-Mer has a field-proven solution for controlling air emissions from incinerators. Its operating costs are low thanks to efficient neutralization of flue gases, minimal chemical consumption and low pressure drop. Whether an incinerator is municipal or corporate, Tri-Mer has solved the greatest obstacle to eliminating solid waste in a way that is efficient and cost-effective.   

https://lnkd.in/g9S3sR6p dear linked in family , please see the attached comments from the current mayor of waipa, obviously this woman doesn't understand the waste system how it works , and what would be good for the community , for 5 years we have been charged for value, while being treated poorly by both the WDC and the WRC, while we pay there elite planners for advice and work that was never completed, now we find out these councils actually recieve funding from landfills of 50% of the waste levy received by dumping any waste in the ground while it produces poisons, that needs further treatment it is called leachate, that if they find water ways are extremely damaging to the environment, also emissions are not captured they are flared to the sky, to have trusted these councils to do there job was an error by me, as they are conflicted with the value they recieve , by poisining the ground and your minds through poor media ,they cannot see that energy fpr waste is an important tool accross the globe in treatment of waste, please do not beleive political BS, by peolle paid within the waste system by waste minz fund , they also recive funding for there employment and politics by the waste levy also for landfills , we want to go forwards not backwards , we want to remediate landfills and create usable land, this is the way forward, choose your vote carefully do not vote for this person follow your waste and see what they do, and then receive recycling reports which are BS, the charge you for service also ... every tonnes in the ground local councils will receive $30 per tonne, with more landfills being consented this will mea recycling will be ignored as there is no value and it will be hidden from view so your children have to clean up the mess... fonterra burning coal 100 years or more no problem for the council, now wood chip no problem from this mayor , we allready incinerate peolle , pets, health waste, tyres,coal, wood chip, within NZ , and a new horse incinerator in tekauwhata non notified by your councils for the wealthy.all non notified! where are you the people! NZ I better than this.

With 35% to 40% of its overall CO₂ emissions stemming from combustion emissions, the #cementindustry has made significant strides to replace fossil fuels with alternative fuels sourced from various waste streams. The ambition in Europe is to achieve 95% alternative fuel use by 2050 (with 50% bio-waste) from the 53% today. Carbon8 is already in the market today, with a full-scale CCUS plant deployed in 2024 at a cement plant in France. This is designed to support the Cement industry's decarbonising roadmap. The industry is migrating from primary fossil fuels to alternative fuels, such as non-recyclable waste, to significantly lower carbon emissions and deliver greater economic and environmental value. Carbon8’s Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (#CCUS) technology is key to diverting the by-product of this adoption from going to #landfills. It transforms this into #lowcarbonmaterials used in #constructionproducts and captures more CO₂, all done at the point of source. Carbon8’s low-capex, low-opex mineralisation system is indispensable and appealing for the sector to meet its carbon neutrality ambitions. Carbon8…supporting the cement industry’s needs and ambitions today. #cement #cementindustry #cembureau #decarbonisation #carbonreduction #aggregates

Converting plastic and tire waste into energy carriers in an environmentally friendly way (e.g. heating oil, diesel, grill coke, synthesis gas) The microwave vapor plasma technology I developed is environmentally friendly: no nitrogen oxides, no sulfur dioxide, minimal carbon dioxide and odorless emissions What should we do with more and more garbage? The conversion of waste into an energy carrier has become relevant because the production of electricity from waste is slowly being replaced by solar and wind energy, because their operating costs are almost zero, the amortization of the equipment Waste-to-energy plant a great alternative to reduce the area for waste treatment and disposal, in addition to generating energy for all small cities in the region. A good alternative is to create an intermunicipal cooperative between small cities to share costs It is a social advantage if small villages are supplied with locally produced energy, thus creating local jobs for the local energy-using population from waste collected locally, small equipment for micro power plants can also be manufactured locally To date, I have been approached several times, but they expected 100% funding from me without investing their money. For example, in oil-rich countries like UAE or Nigeria, the government has to fund projects if they don't want their country to be covered in waste. Our innovation in environmental protection is the use of microwave technology The main advantage of microwave vapor plasma reactors is that there is no nitrogen in the microwave vapor plasma, so there is no nitrogen oxides, no sulfur dioxid minimum carbon dioxid and odorless emissions The hydrogen introduced into the reaction space with the microwave vapor plasma slows down the reactions of gaseous sulphur, phosphorus and free chlorine formation to remove in the gas purification unit.

One of the major focus areas for the cement industry to reduce emissions is to increase the use of alternative and new fuels replacing conventional fossil fuels.

As an alternative to landfill, wastes containing combustible material may be incinerated or combusted. Incineration is the oxidation of the combustible material in the waste to produce heat, water vapor, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and oxygen. #EnvironmentalManagement

The annual CO2 emissions have risen significantly, from around 9.4 gigatons in 1960 to approximately 37.41 gigatons in 2024—an increase of 298% and an average annual growth rate of 1.8%. What's crazy is that around 90% of these emissions are from fossil fuels. As part of our bioenergy assessment, my teammates and I produced 500 mL of biodiesel using waste cooking oil at Gembloux Agro-Bio Tech, Université de Liège—transforming waste into fuel! Fats and oils in waste cooking oil—often discarded both domestically and industrially—present a valuable opportunity. Through transesterification (a chemical process), these can be converted into a cleaner-burning, renewable energy source that can fuel vehicles, offering a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels. Why does this matter? Biodiesel offers the following key benefits: 🌱 Reduction in environmental pollution 🔋 Decreased reliance on non-renewable fossil fuels ♻ A sustainable solution to waste cooking oil management With even small amounts of waste cooking oil, biofuel can be produced and used in diesel engines—ranging from lawnmowers to city buses—once properly standardized. Scaling this up could mean greener cities and a more sustainable future! A huge thank you to our exceptional teaching staff— Prof. Aurore Richel, Quentin De Roover, Laurent Seutin—and my amazing teammates Atsbeha Gebremeskel, Uchechukwu Sunny, and Sahin Bayar. Together, we shared ideas, conducted experiments, and overcame challenges in this rewarding journey of innovation and learning.
