SRF has a similar production process to RDF, however, processing SRF (Solid recovered fuel) is more advanced and cost-demanding. Thus, leaving the material more sorted and shredded, which in turn leads to a higher and more consistent calorific value than RDF, ideal for use in incineration to reduce the amount of build-up and furnace down-time.
Similar to RDF, SRF can contribute to reducing reliance on fossil fuels, mitigating greenhouse gas emissions, and promoting a circular economy by maximizing the value extracted from waste materials.
In addition to the mentioned benefits regarding storage and transport, applying Orkel`s Telematics technology to the SRF baling process allows each customer to effortlessly scan each individual bale’s tag and view its content and place of origin. As a result, the high-density round bale is easy to label and sell independently, assuring that a WtE (waste-to-energy) facility can purchase the required amount of material to keep their operations running.
