Geminor commences RDF transport to Scandinavia 29 October 2019
Italy: Geminor began exporting refuse-derived fuel (RDF) by freight train from its RDF-processing plant in Naples to Aalborg Portland Cement’s 2.1Mt/yr Rørdal integrated cement plant in October 2019. Geminor Germany and Italy Country Manager Andreas Hefler stated that the conveyance of 10,000t/yr of RDF in trainloads of 400t, though not significantly time-saving, represented an efficient and sustainable alternative to shipping and trailers. “We hope that others in the waste industry follow suit in transporting by electric train,” said Hefler.
Germany: Vecoplan will present the Vecoplan Infinity (VIZ), a universal material primary shredder specialised in shredding plastics with flexible cutting geometry, at K 2019, the plastics and rubber industry fair, in Düsseldorf. The VIZ is capable of shredding a range of plastic materials for further processing into refuse-derived fuel (RDF) for cement plants.
