UK: Waste Knot Energy has produced a batch of solid improved recovered fuel (SIRF) pellets. The pellets consist of non-recyclable commercial and industrial waste including wood, paper and non-chlorinated plastics. The producer says that its SIRF mix burns more cleanly than fossil fuels. It said that its combustion CO2 emissions are 100kg/t of pellets. Energy and transportation costs are 108kg/t.

Managing director Roger Ferguson said, “We believe that SIRF pellets are an exciting innovation as the UK looks to be carbon net zero by 2050.”He added, “Even when taking into account emissions required to manufacture our pellets, there’s a big carbon saving. It even has a lower carbon footprint when compared to wood pellets, which are traditionally shipped from the US or Canada.”
