Multi-Fuel Systems
In the waste-to-energy world, all fuel is local. For maximum control of process and fuel costs, cement plants need the flexibility to implement whole tires and waste derived fuels from multi-fuel systems.
When tire fuel is used with other bulk solid fuels, AFS recommends the use of a flexible conveying system to get both fuels near the point of use and then separate the materials for feed rate control and injection to the combustion chamber.
When two or more waste derived fuels are used, each material is received, stored, and metered separately to the same conveying system for injection to the combustion chamber for the ideal alternative fuel mix – providing the highest calorfic value and process control for the lowest fuel cost.
