Noncombustible materials such as glass and metals are generally removed prior to making RDF. The residual material is sold as-is or compressed into pellets, bricks, or logs. RDF processing facilities are typically located near a source of MSW, while the RDF combustion facility can be located elsewhere. Existing RDF facilities process between 100 and 3,000 tons per day. Compare with mass burn facility. Related category    • BIOENERGY AND BIOFUEL Also on this site: Encyclopedia of Science Transport Concepts & Designs (partner site) BACK TO TOP
