Energy:
from RDF to clean energy
Our mission:
� environmentally friend power production
� renewable sources promotion
� local resources valutaion
Power consumption as well as oil demand is growing exponentially.
Considering the current situation, it has been estimated that in approximately thirty years the world main oil wells will be nearly exhausted and extraction would entail heavy social and environment costs. For this reason reducing fossil fuel use in power production is mandatory.
The use of cleaner, cheaper and ready available fuels, such as RDF (Refuse Derived Fuel), is - particularly for Italy which basically has no fossil fuels availability - the best possible way-out.
Once recyclable materials have been selected and separated from rubbish, the remaining refuse is processed and converted into RDF,
a high-heating-value fuel suitable to feed power plants.
The short term effect
on environment and life quality: remarkable
reduction of emissions and of landfill
waste disposal. The long term effect:
cleaner energy and cost reduction for
consumers
