Alternative Fuel Handling
For businesses that use or produce power saving energy costs is a top priority. This coupled with the ongoing reduction in available landfill sites has increased the attraction of Alternative Fuels (sometime know as Secondary Fuels).
Alternative Fuels come from a wide variety of sources such as; shredded plastic and production wastes, old tyres and grinding dusts, meat and bone meal (MBM) and processed domestic waste.
The diverse and often inconsistent nature of these materials makes the design of the feeding and conveying systems an especially difficult challenge.
Efficient Solutions
Redler’s systems are extremely economical and use proven concepts for handling difficult materials. This allied with products form across the Schenck Process Group allows Redler to offer a complete package for handling alternative fuel from single machine solutions through to turnkey systems.
Diverse Industries
Alternative Fuels are used across a broad range of industries to supplement or replace conventional sources of power generating raw material or as a disposal method for waste products.
These can be summarised as:
- Power Generation
- Wood Board
- Chemical
- Cement
- Steel
- Minerals
- Waste Water
