Densified refuse-derived fuel (dRDF) is municipal solid waste (MSW) that has undergone several steps of sizing, separation and screening to produce a refuse-derived fuel (RDF) and other soluble or recyclable by-products. The RDF is then densified in a pelletizing or cubing extrusion process. This dRDF product offers several advantages compared to RDF: ease and cost of transportation; increased storability; and the capability of firing in a variety of combustor configurations. This paper discusses the problems encountered with dRDF processing systems; the current status of dRDF facilities; technologies presently used; and the economics of existing systems.
