Sucrose is an important food, condiment and chemical raw material in the world today. As one of the important sources of sucrose, sugar cane is an important economic crop and widely planted in Brazil, India, southern China, Thailand, Pakistan, Mexico, Colombia, Australia, Guatemala, United States, Indonesia, Philippines, Argentina, Cuba, Vietnam, Egypt, South Africa, Myanmar, Peru, Ecuador and other places. In the process of sugarcane planting and extraction, various sugarcane leaves, bagasse and other residues are produced, which is also an important resource and can be used for papermaking raw materials or biofuels. This article focuses on the conversion of bagasse into biofuel. There are two ways to convert sugarcane bagasse and sugarcane leaves into biofuel, one is to convert it into combustible gas by high temperature gasification or anaerobic fermentation, the other way is to use a shear shredder to process it into suitable size that called as solid fuel, which can be burned directly in boiler.

AIShred Shredders Play an Important Role in Converting Agave Waste into Solid BiofuelsAIShred Shredders Play an Important Role in Converting Agave Waste into Solid Biofuels

Tequila,a distilled beverage made from the blue agave plant, produced mainly in the area around the city of Tequila, 65 km (40 miles) northwest of Guadalajara, and in the highlands of Los Altos de Jalisco, in the state of Jalisco in west-central Mexico.It takes 8-10 years for a mature agave plant to grow, its rootstock is so large that it weighs several hundred kilograms and is known as a "natural brewer".Then, the use of the rootstock goes far beyond that. The agave is squeezed to squeeze out as much of the juice as possible before it is used for brewing, a process that removes roughly 50% of the water from it, while the rest of the material can be shredded, dried and made into biomass pellets to be burned in boilers. AIShred, as a specialist in biomass disposal, has a wide range of shredders to provide material disposal services.We can supply low speed, high torque double-shaft shredders for cutting and shredding materials.

Scrap Tires to TDF with AIShred ShreddersScrap Tires to TDF with AIShred Shredders

Waste tires have great value and can turn them into alternative fuels used in cement kilns, power plants, steel mills, called TDF(Tire Derived Fuel), which reduces threats from unlawful stockpiling, while also creating economic profits. How is TDF produced?In simple terms, processing of discarded scrap tires into TDF consists of three main steps: shredding, screening and metal removal. The level of each is determined by the end user's needs and specifications (i.e., size of shreds and amount of metal removed). For shredding of scrap tires, equipment for tire processing generally comes in two types - slow speed and high-speed shredder. Slow speed shredder or rotary shear shredder is used to produce the larger chip sizes suitable for applications such as cement kilns, shearing the tire into 2 to 5-inch size shreds and liberating between 2 and 10 percent of the bead wire contained within the tire. The high speed single shaft shredder contains a rotor equipped with knives that shred the tire until they are of

How Much does a RDF Plant Cost?How Much does a RDF Plant Cost?

Alternative fuel RDF(refuse derived fuel) or solid secondary fuel is a fuel obtained from waste. RDF contains high-calorie waste components such as plastic, paper, cardboard, textiles, rubber, leather, wood, etc.RDF can be used as main or supplementary fuel in furnaces of cement plants, thermal power plants, metallurgical furnaces. The calculations performed showed the expediency of replacing gas or coal with RDF in the production of cement.The production of cement requires significant energy costs due to the need to maintain the temperature in cement kilns above 2000°C. For each ton of cement produced, typically 60-130 kg of fuel oil, or its equivalent (natural gas, coal), and about 105 kWh of electricity are required. On average, energy, fuel and electricity costs account for up to 40 percent of cement manufacturing costs. Therefore, it is advisable to use alternative fuels obtained from waste in production processes in order to reduce the use of traditional fuels and raw materials by replacing them with

Plant for Production RDF and SRF

Refuse Derived Fuel(RDF) and Solid recovered fuel(SRF) is the final product of a complex production process which is modernly defined as the "chain of differentiation, recovery and recycling of municipal solid waste". RDF/SRF is an excellent fuel with a great energy power and a very limited cost, in addition, turning waste into RDF/SRF also reduces landfill space and many other costs. RDF/SRF Production Process The RDF/SRF preparation process consists of several processes: a primary shredding, screening, separation, removal of ferrous and non-ferrous metals and a final shredding. Different material compositions and specific requirements may increase or decrease certain processes. At the waste treatment site, Minhang Sanitation Company processes overproduction, bulky waste fractions, large packaging and unsorted municipal solid waste by transforming them into waste-derived fuels (RDF) of various qualities. The company specialized in disposal supplies waste incineration plants, but mainly cement plants, for

Fuel Processing for RDF, TDF and SRFFuel Processing for RDF, TDF and SRF

Since the beginning of the 21st century, more and more waste has been generated. In order to cope with the threat to the environment caused by the increase in waste, people have begun to use waste as fuel that can be burned in boilers for power generation or heating. We divide the fuel from waste into RDF, TDF, SRF according to different components and processing method of the waste. RDF(Refuse-derived fuel) is a fuel produced by sorting and shredding combustible materials contained in municipal solid waste (MSW) and industrial waste. Compared to fossil fuels, RDF is more affordable, abundant, and environmentally friendly. SRF(Solid Recovered Fuel) is a fuel produced by drying, filtering, and shredding solid waste, It is usually produced to meet the standards in Europe. The EN 15359 document gives the specifications for classifying SRF. Unlike RDF, SRF is a more refined material that is slightly more efficient than RDF, though it takes a more advanced process to make the fuel. TDF(Tire-derived fuel) is a

To be transformed into pellets, the waste must first be shredded, crushed or pulverized. The materials thus obtained are then processed in a rotary drum or disc pellet machine with the aid of a binding agent,

Industrial Shredder for Alternative FuelsIndustrial Shredder for Alternative Fuels

Waste is a stable and profitable energy source. Material that has been used and disposed of can be turned into energy-efficient fuel to replace or complement other sources of energy in various applications. Waste fuels, often referred to as “alternative fuels,” are generally produced from municipal solid waste and commercial and industrial waste. Common types of alternative fuels are refuse-derived fuel (RDF) and solid recovered fuel (SRF). There is enormous potential in alternative fuels. They eliminate waste and limit the purchase of black energy sources. Removing impurities and substances with low energy content allows higher-quality waste fuel to be produced. An efficient and properly designed production process increases the calorific value of the waste fuel and ensures that the fuel is optimal for the application. This has a considerable positive impact on production and finances. We manufacture industrial waste shredders and provide maintenance and professional services for companies producing or
