Why Alternative Fuels and
Raw Materials Matter?
Plastroots is committed to transforming waste into valuable resources for the cement industry. Our innovative approach harnesses the power of alternative fuels and raw materials, including Plastic waste, biomass, and Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF), to drive sustainable practices and reduce environmental impact. Traditional fuel sources, like coal and natural gas, contribute to carbon emissions and deplete finite resources. By switching to these cleaner options & integrating alternative fuels and raw materials into cement production industries can significantly decrease their carbon footprint and reliance on non-renewable resources. We specialize in finding alternative fuels like Biomass, Plastic Waste, RDF Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) that can power cement kilns. Thus, to ensure the right disposal is achieved Cement Industries may collaborate with Waste Management Agency (WMA) in order to establish a distinctive collection channel for their AFR Waste. This is further done by WMA’s tie ups with Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) / Municipalities, Industrial & Agriculture waste.. Plastroots is already a trusted name working with a very transparent and traceable ULB endorsed model. We have collaborated with numerous ULBs across India for over 80+ leading PIBOs & PROs in Indian Market. We also have tie ups with Cement factories and Waste to Energy Plant to collect and dispose of municipality & Industrial & Agriculture waste.
RDF: Maximizing Resource Efficiency
Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) is a is a heterogeneous mixture of daily items that people use and discard. It produced from various types of waste, including Plastics, Paper, Rubber, Glass and organic matter. Refuse-derived fuel (RDF) is produced by shredding and drying the combustible waste. This process creates a uniform and high-energy fuel that is suitable for use in industries like cement manufacturing. It includes all types of biodegradables, inert, recyclable organic and inorganic waste materials. Therefore, the key to achieve an efficient resource recovery is its segregation into individual fractions. The major problem in the above proposition is to find ways of using the segregated combustible fractions (SCF), which are not recyclable. These fractions may contain soiled paper, soiled cloth, contaminated plastics, packaging materials, leather, rubber, etc. Such fractions can be utilized as an Alternative Fuel only when they are converted into refuse-derived fuel (RDF) or solid recovered fuel (SRF) having defined quality parameters. The non-recyclable SCF is converted into SRF or RDF through a processing facility. We not only divert waste from landfills but also provides a reliable and cost-effective fuel alternative for the cement industry, contributing to both environmental and economic sustainability.
Plastics: Turning Waste into Energy
Plastics are a major contributor to global pollution, but they also hold untapped energy potential. At Plastroots, we collect and process plastic waste, transforming it into a clean-burning fuel source for cement kilns. Plastic waste that cannot be recycled can be used in cement kilns. The problem often encountered for use is the non-segregation of the plastic waste from other waste. Industrial plastic waste is particularly available from the waste paper-based paper mills, which have wasted in wrappings, laminations, covers, and so on. It is also available in the form of discarded packaging bags, drums, etc. from various manufacturing units. By diverting plastic from landfills and incineration, we not only mitigate environmental harm but also provide a sustainable energy solution for the cement industry.
Biomass: Harnessing Nature's Renewable Energy
Biomass, derived from organic materials like agricultural residues and wood waste, offers a renewable and carbon-neutral alternative to traditional fuels. Through our partnerships with local farmers and forestry organizations, we source biomass waste and convert it into high-quality fuel pellets. By utilizing biomass, cement manufacturers can reduce their reliance on fossil fuels and support a circular economy.
Work Process Flow
Nation-Wide Sourcing Networks
Collection of waste through ULB’s, Processing Sites, Landfill sites & Transferring Points.
Transportation to Disposal Facilities
Either to co-processing sites or disposal Industries Authorized by Respective Pollution Control Board.
Compliance and Certifications
Regulatory Proficiency with Real Time Tracking & Reporting Capabilities.
Assessment
Assessing waste doesn't have to be complicated. With Plastroots, you'll experience a streamlined and efficient assessment process. We start by assessing the waste streams available in our region. Through careful analysis, we identify suitable materials for RDF production. These include non-recyclable plastics, paper, cardboard, wood, and other combustible waste. We prioritize materials with high energy content and low contamination levels for optimal RDF quality.
Reporting
We maintain strict quality control measures throughout the RDF production process to ensure consistency and efficiency. Our team conducts regular testing to verify the calorific value and composition of the RDF, meeting industry standards and requirements.
Waste Collection
First, we gather waste materials from various sources such as Urban Local Bodies/ Municipalities, Industries, and Commercial establishments. These materials include non-recyclable Plastics, paper, cardboard, wood, Bio Mass, Metals & Glass.
End Disposal
By supplying cement industries with RDF, Bio-Mass & Plastic Waste we contribute to reducing their reliance on traditional fossil fuels such as coal and natural gas. These only conserves finite resources which reduces greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution, promoting a cleaner and more sustainable environment.
Traceability
We implement rigorous testing and monitoring procedures to maintain product integrity and consistency. Each batch of RDF is meticulously documented, allowing for traceability throughout its lifecycle. From its origin to its destination in cement industries, we ensure full transparency and accountability.
