Global Refuse-Derived Fuel Market: Trends and Forecasts to 2027

Refuse-derived fuel (RDF) is extracted from municipal solid wastes, and commercial wastes or industrial wastes. The production of RDF can minimize the potential of methane emissions in atmosphere and to minimize the pressure on landfills.

The global municipal governments are facing challenges regarding the management of unending waste loads generated by business sites and domestic combustible wastes. The governments are using RDF to manage wastes and turn wastes into energy, to overcome the mentioned issues. Non-combustible materials such as glass and metals are removed from the waste and the residuals are then shredded. RDF is extracted from combustible materials using mechanical and biological treatments. Refuse-derived fuel can be used in many ways. It is used in coal power plants to produce electricity. Refuse-derived fuel is also used in cement industry as an alternative fuel.

  • Mechanical biological treatment (MBT) is used to produce refuse-derived fuel from municipal solid wastes. Mechanical biological treatment (MBT) is less expensive and highly in demand in waste management programs. For instance, the Chartered Institution of Wastes Management (CIWM), U.K, uses MBT process to produce refuse-derived fuel from municipal solid wastes.
  • Key players are focusing on developing new products to expand their product portfolio. For instance, in April 2017, Metso, a manufacturer of RDF, launched Fine-Shredders, M&J FineShred 1550, which requires less heat and power, and it is secured and easy to access and maintain during the production. Such technological advancements by manufacturers are expected to increase their market share and drive growth of the global market during forecast period.
