International technology group Andritz has signed a cooperation agreement with Altstoff Recycling Aktiengesellschaft, located in Vienna, Austria, to launch special refuse derived fuels (RDF) processing technology on the market for the cement industry.
Altstoff is the market leader in Austria for collection and recovery of packaging and offers comprehensive know how for an all-round circular economy of circular design solutions, waste and material flow management as well as logistics and digitalization.
Through this cooperation, Altstoff and Andritz are aiming at a significant increase in RDF utilization rates and a considerable reduction in carbon emissions from incineration plants in cement works. The centerpiece of the innovative solution is an Andritz ADuro F shredder, which grinds RDF to very fine particle sizes. With this innovative technology, excellent preconditions are created to substantially increase utilization of RDF. At the same time, it enables the use of carbon optimized RDF materials for a sustainable and carbon neutral future.
