| | | | RDF in cement production: Focusing on climate protection and efficient waste management | |
| |
| | It is perhaps the greatest challenge in the history of the cement industry: the significant reduction of CO2 emissions. An important step in this direction is the increased use of refuse-derived fuel (RDF).

|
| | In the cement production process, CO2 is not just a footnote, but is now a challenge that the industry is facing. The main source of CO2 emissions is the calcination of limestone, a key step in the production of cement clinker. During the chemical process, calcium carbonate is converted into calcium oxide, releasing significant amounts of CO2. There are also additional emissions from the combustion of fossil fuels, which are required to reach the high temperatures in the rotary kiln.

|
| | Landfill diversion, lower consumption of virgin fossil fuels, lower CO2 emissions – alternative fuels derived from municipal solid waste (MSW) offer many advantages, but they are rarely adjusted to the needs of the customer. The Eggersmann FUEL is different. It is directly customised to the requirements of the cement industry to compensate as much fossil fuel as possible.
