Abstract:

As a result of the activities carried out by people to maintain their daily lives in different places such as homes, hospitals, hotels or workplaces, waste consisting of furniture, paint, batteries, food waste, sachets, bottles, fabrics, and fibers with the heterogeneous structure is called Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). Secondary fuels with higher heating value, which are generated by recycling of non-recyclable and reusable wastes in municipal solid wastes, are called as Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF). In this study, Refuse Derived Fuel1 (RDF1 : taken in December, winter season) and Refuse Derived Fuel2 (RDF2 : taken in June, summer season) samples obtained from different dates were used. The ultimate, proximate, calorific value, X-Ray fluorescence (XRF), Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis were performed for these samples. Combustion characterization from Refuse Derived Fuel samples was investigated in the applied analyzes. The results of the content analysis made were examined separately and compared with the Thermogravimetric analysis and Differential Thermal Analysis combustion graph curves. It was revealed that the Refuse Derived Fuel1 sample had a better combustion compared to the Refuse Derived Fuel2 sample, as the ash amount and content obtained as a result of the combustion also supported other data. In addition, the results of the analysis show how different the Refuse Derived Fuel samples taken from the same region in two different months are different from each other.

Abstract:

Legal regulations on waste disposal require waste producers to limit landfilling and to find different ways of waste management, the preferred methods being recycling of material and energy potential. Currently, in Poland, the only consumers of refuse-derived fuels (RDF) are cement plants. However, their ability to utilize alternative fuel is far from the estimated potential. One solution would be to redirect the excess fuel to power and heat production facilities. Unfortunately, these sectors are facing a number of problems related to the thermal treatment of waste, mainly formal nature. Co-combustion of waste in power plants raises a lot of concern among their employees and local communities. Especially significant is the harmfulness of usage of fuel from waste for the people’s lives or health, or the environment. The article compares the environmental footprints of the combustion process of: waste - based fuel (RDF) and lignite. The analysis was performed for a standard pulverized coal fired boiler. Comparative assessment was made by analyzing the total environmental impact of all combustion products of the two fuels. Final results have shown, that the environmental footprint of waste-based fuels can be similar or even smaller than traditional coal-based fuels

Abstract:

AbstractThe aim of this study is to prove technical feasibility of combined refuse derived fuel (RDF) torrefaction and oily wastewater treatment approach by using RDF derived biochar as a sorption media. Biochars prepared from refuse derived fuels in torrefaction, carbonization and pyrolysis modes were analysed as fuels and as hydrocarbon sorbents. Changes of elemental composition and properties of material during thermal treatment and subsequent washing process have been analysed. Experimental evaluation of sorption behaviour of toluene and diesel fuel on obtained biochar performed. Our results show that torrefaction/carbonization of RDF coupled with the subsequent washing of biochar is a method allowing to overcome absolute majority of the quality problems of waste derived fuels, including the most important one: high chlorine content. In spite the fact that optimal temperatures for upgrading waste derived fuels and to produce high quality sorbent does not coincide, technically it is possible to combine the washing of torrefied/carbonized waste derived fuels with the treatment of wastewaters that are polluted with oils or hydrocarbons.

Abstract:

Abstract The paper presents the concept of use of fuels produced from production waste (RDF). The usefulness of RDF processed into pellets used in the chemical and power industry was also analyzed. The paper presents the results of research on the quality and content of selected elements in RDF pellets. The values of individual indexes are within the ranges typical for fuels manufactured from plastics. The tested material’s humidity was identified as low, as well as the content of chlorine, sulfur and other elements. In the working condition, the calorific value of the tested sample was 25.260 MJ·kg−1 and was above the range of typical values for RDF (13-20 MJ·kg−1). The moisture content in the tested material was 1% and it was within the required range. In the laboratory tests, the content of chlorine and sulfur was also determined.

Abstract:

Today every nation faces serious problems of energy supply. Reasonable technologies to make use of coal (including co*ke) can not only help the mining-related economy which is showing a downward trend but also may fit in with the governmental energy policy. In this research, we aim to supply heating systems in factories, homes, and farms with a substitute fuel by developing co*ke/waste tire compound fuel with high efficiency for rational use of energy and for recycling of industrial products. A co*ke/waste boiler was used for this experiment, and different kinds of fuel were experimented including co*ke, waste tire, co*ke/waste A and co*ke/waste B. Four kinds of exhaust gas were also sampled by a gas analyzer, including CO, CO2, NO and NO2 at different temperatures.

Abstract:

This paper is devoted to the analysis of the effect of the percentage mixture of refuse derived fuels created from industrial waste on selected combustion parameters resulting from the mixture of the fuels, whose principal component is coal. The selected combustion parameters are; the lower explosive limit (LEL), maximum explosion pressure (pmax), maximum rate of the rise in pressure (dp/dt)max) and the cubic constant (KSt). The paper also includes a description of the test equipment and methods by which the tests of the combustion variables were carried out.

Abstract:

Fluidized bed combustors were initially designed and built basically for the utilization of fossil fuels, mostly coal. The actual worldwide trend of transitioning from fossil fuels to renewables requires sufficient knowledge on the fluid mechanics of these new particle types because of the significant differences in their shapes, sizes, densities, and hom*ogeneities. This article presents experimental results on the particle entrainment and mixing of some industrially relevant fuels such as solid refused fuel/refuse derived fuel (SRF/RDF), bark, sunflower shell, and wheat shell. The measurements were performed on a lab-scale fluidized bed experimental facility. The results show that sunflower shell is entrained in the highest degree; however, at very low velocity, the entrainment of wheat shell is the most intensive. The entrainment behaviors of the investigated SRF and bark samples are similar. On the other hand, the mixing results showed that the SRF has relatively high mass fractions in the bottom and centeral regions of the fluidized bed at low superficial velocities, while at elevated velocities, the entire mass of this fuel is shifted upwards. Interestingly, just the opposite tendency can be observed in cases of all other investigated biomass fuels. Finally, the nonspherical renewable active particles have markedly higher concentrations in the bottom region of the bed compared to spherical ones.

Abstract:

We have been advancing the concept of carbonized refuse-derived fuel (CRDF) by refuse-derived fuel (RDF) torrefaction as improved recycling to synergistically address the world’s energy demand. The RDF is a combustible fraction of municipal solid waste (MSW). Many municipalities recover RDF for co-firing with conventional fuels. Torrefaction can further enhance fuel properties and valorize RDF. Energy demand for torrefaction is one of the key unknowns needed for scaling up CRDF production. To address this need, a pioneering model for optimizing site-specific energy demand for torrefaction of mixed RDF materials was developed. First, thermogravimetric and differential scanning calorimetry analyses were used to establish thermal properties for eight common RDF materials. Then, the model using the %RDF mix, empirical thermal properties, and torrefaction temperature was developed. The model results for individual RDF components fitted well (R2 ≥ 0.98) with experimental torrefaction data. Finally, the model was used to find an optimized RDF site-specific mixture with the lowest energy demand. The developed model could be a basis for estimating a net energy potential from the torrefaction of mixed RDF. Improved models could be useful to make plant-specific decisions to optimize RDF production based on the energy demand that depends on highly variable types of MSW and RDF streams.

Abstract:

New technologies to valorize refuse-derived fuels (RDFs) will be required in the near future due to emerging trends of (1) the cement industry’s demands for high-quality alternative fuels and (2) the decreasing calorific value of the fuels derived from municipal solid waste (MSW) and currently used in cement/incineration plants. Low-temperature pyrolysis can increase the calorific value of processed material, leading to the production of value-added carbonized solid fuel (CSF). This dataset summarizes the key properties of MSW-derived CSF. Pyrolysis experiments were completed using eight types of organic waste and their two RDF mixtures. Organic waste represented common morphological groups of MSW, i.e., cartons, fabrics, kitchen waste, paper, plastic, rubber, PAP/AL/PE composite packaging (multi-material packaging also known as Tetra Pak cartons), and wood. The pyrolysis was conducted at temperatures ranging from 300 to 500 °C (20 °C intervals), with a retention (process) time of 20 to 60 min (20 min intervals). The mass yield, energy densification ratio, and energy yield were determined to characterize the pyrolysis process efficiency. The raw materials and produced CSF were tested with proximate analyses (moisture content, organic matter content, ash content, and combustible part content) and with ultimate analyses (elemental composition C, H, N, S) and high heating value (HHV). Additionally, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analyses (TGA) of the pyrolysis process were performed. The dataset documents the changes in fuel properties of RDF resulting from low-temperature pyrolysis as a function of the pyrolysis conditions and feedstock type. The greatest HHV improvements were observed for fabrics (up to 65%), PAP/AL/PE composite packaging (up to 56%), and wood (up to 46%).

Abstract:

The world society ratifies international measures to reach a flexible and low-carbon energy economy, attenuating climate change and its devastating environmental consequences. The main contribution of this Special Issue is related to thermochemical conversion technologies of solid fuels (e.g., biomass, refuse-derived fuel, and sewage sludge), in particular via combustion and gasification. Here, the recent activities on operational flexibility of co-combustion of biomass and lignite, carbon capture methods, solar-driven air-conditioning systems, integrated solar combined cycle power plants, and advanced gasification systems, such as the sorption-enhanced gasification and the chemical looping gasification, are shown.

Abstract:

Due to its calorific value, wastes could be treated into Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) through several processes. In order to get higher calorific value, moisture content in the wastes could be removed by utilizing the heat generated from decomposition of organic fraction by microorganism (biodrying process). The study aims to treat solid wastes generated from canteens in Ganesha Campus of Institut Teknologi Bandung into RDF through biodrying process. Through standard sampling procedure, total waste generated from 59 canteens was 228 kg/day and organic fraction became the dominant (74%). There were 3 biodrying piles prepared, namely aeration, windrow, and control pile. Temperature in all piles increased in first and second weeks, then it gradually decreased and the average temperature were between 23-48 oC. The heat generated during the process could be remove water content and the optimum time 17-22 days could reach 20-30% of moisture content. The highest calorific value could be obtained from aerated pile (14.98 MJ/kg). By considering several parameters, the best RDF were produced from aerated pile. The parameters which still did not comply with the international standard of RDF were ash content, fixed carbon, and organic carbon. The quality of RDF was affected significantly by the composition of the feed. Though it could not meet with all parameters as an international standard of RDF, the product could be used as co-fuel to substitute coal or other fossil fuels for industrial activities. By knowing that the wastes could be converted into valuable product, the local municipality may shift the conventional paradigm of the waste management which is only collect-haul-dispose into a new paradigm by prioritizing waste recycle.

Abstract:

The applicability is studied of a simplified equilibrium model for prediction of the composition and quality of producer gas from gasification of different waste. A simplified equilibrium model of stoichiometric type based on system thermodynamic equilibrium has been developed in the form of a stand-alone computer application. Standard numerical methods have been implemented for solving the mathematical problem formulation. The model`s predicted results have been compared with the published results for biomass and some waste types - municipal solid wastes and refuse derived fuels. Results are included for a bubbling fluidized bed and downdraft fixed bed allothermal gasification, also for catalytic supported gasification. Producer gas predictions by calibrated and non-calibrated versions of the simplified equilibrium model have been studied. The accuracy of these predictions has been evaluated. The results obtained by the simplified equilibrium model have confirmed that such model is a very useful tool for studying the gasification process for municipal solid wastes and refuse derived fuels process parameters for two mostly implemented gasifier types.

Abstract:

The main focus of this paper is concerned with the production and properties of refuse derived fuel 5 (RDF-5) for use in energy from waste technologies. The analysis was performed using feedstocks made up of residues from a range of mechanical biological treatment (MBT) plants and crude oil sludge. The RDF-5 was composed of crude oil sludge and mechanical biological waste treatment (MBWT). The ratios of MBWT to crude oil sludge were 5:95, 10:90, 15:85 and 20:80 respectively. The physical and thermal characteristics of RDF-5 were examined. This was further investigated in the context of the parameters required during production and the properties of RDF-5. RDF-5 was produced using a screw compactor. Analysis of the optimal mixing ratios between the crude oil sludge and MBWT were undertaken by testing the thermal value based on ASTM D 240 moisture contents was based on ASTM D 3173, ash was based on ASTM D 3174, and density was based on ASTM E 75 respectively. The results showed that the optimal ratios of MBWT to crude oil sludge were 15:85 and 20:80 have feasibility to produce the RDF-5. Because of the ratios of 15:85 and 20:80 have a high value 10,831 kcal/kg and 11,260 kcal/kg, the percentages of moisture were 2.73% and 5.93% and the density values were 750 kg/m3and 806 kg/m3respectively (RDF-5 has a high heating value (HHV > 5,000 kcal/kg), with the percentage of moisture content not exceeding 10 percent and the density value (D 600 kg/m3) according to production of solid fuels standards). The ash values were 5.10% and 4.74% respectively. Comparing the energy production costs between RDF-5 and other fuels used in Thailand we found that the production costs of RDF-5 were 0.014 /MJ and 0.013 /MJ which are comparable to that of paddy husk and much cheaper than those of fuel lignite and bituminous. This preliminary evaluation reveals that the recovery of energy through RDF-5 production from MBWT with crude oil sludge is cost attractive and it should be considered as a feasible option for utilizing energy from MBWT with crude oil sludge.

Abstract:

Information about composition of RDF worldwide was collected using literature analysis. RDF samples produced in Latvia and Estonia were collected, those fractional and elemental composition analyzed using standard methods. Comparing obtained results with worldwide data we have found that the quality of local RDFs in general is higher than typical values, while elevated content of chlorine must be mentioned as a problem. Results also show that majority of chlorine in studied samples exists in organic form. Recommendations to overcome this problem have been developed.

Abstract:

An internally circulating fluidized bed (ICFB) was applied to investigate the behavior of refuse derived fuels (RDF) incineration. The temperature distribution along bed height was measured by the thermocouple and the pollutant emissions in the flue gas were measured by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry Gasmet DX-3000. In the tests the concentrations of the species CO CO2 HCl N2O SO2 were measured online. The experimental results showed that the RDF could combust steadily in the fluidized bed. The concentrations of the CO HCl N2O in flue gas were higher than the values of national environmental standards.
