Co-processing of waste-derived fuels

Chapter on co-processing of waste-derived fuel in the Cement Plant Environmental Handbook, 2022: One of the ways in which the global cement industry is looking to reduce CO2 emissions is through the further substitution of conventional fossil fuels with non-fossil (gaseous, liquid, pulverised, coarse crushed) alternative (or secondary) fuels for resource efficiency and economic reasons. In fact, the industry has already increased its usage of alternative fuels nine-fold since 1990. Here we take a step-by-step look at best practice in the co-processing of waste-derived fuels.
