Forming characteristics of refuse derived fuel from high heating value waste and feasibility

For Energy efficiency of municipal waste,the paper advances a new concept of municipal solid waste sub-quality collection,processing,and treating waste with wastes,the high heating value waste was combined with other waste,which can be produce RDF(refuse derived fuel) to provide energy for industrial applications.Study on different moisture content,plastic content and additives(biomass) effect on RDF forming characteristics,and the RDF production process part of energy consumption analysis.The results showed that RDF heating value increased obviously with the increase of the plastic components,but the particles became loose easily,bulk density and particle size decreased,the plastic component ratio less than 50% is appropriate;with the increase of moisture content of calorific value declining trend,but to particle compression molding,bulk density and particle size decreased,when the moisture content control in 10%~14%,particles had good molding effect;RDF forming effect of sawdust as accessories to prepare was better than straw.
