Oman Cement Company<\/a><\/strong> (OCC) will launch a waste-to-energy (WtE) facility to reduce gas <\/strong>consumption by processing municipal solid waste<\/strong>, according to a company filing (pdf)<\/a>. The plant will use Refused Derived Fuel (RDF) processed from municipal solid waste to power its cement complex at its Misfah complex with an annual capacity of 3.6 mn tonnes, Oman Observer<\/a> reports. Oman\u2019s Finance Ministry and Commerce and Industry Ministry own 51%<\/a> of OCC, while the rest of the shares are publicly traded. China\u2019s giant producer Huaxin Cement became a partner in OCC<\/a>last year<\/a> after purchasing almost 60% of the publicly traded shares from Oman\u2019s state-owned Investment Authority Company.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s RDF? <\/strong>RDF is a type of fuel<\/a> produced from various forms of waste and consists of combustible components, such as non-recyclable plastics and tyres, and biodegradable matter. Non-combustible materials are separated from the waste and the rest gets shredded and burned.<\/p>\n

Not the first RDF initiative: <\/strong>Oman Environment Services (Be'ah) partnered with Oman Cement last year to supply RDF made from household and business waste to be burned as fuel in cement kilns, Oman Observer writes, adding that the company also agreed to supply processed old tires (Tyre Derived Fuel) as fuel for the kilns.<\/p>\n

The UAE + Kuwait are also working on producing RDF for cement production: <\/strong>Kuwait Municipality approved a RDF<\/a> project to power up its main cement production plan in 2022.The UAE\u2019s Environment Ministry and Emirates RDF<\/a> \u2014 owner of the first of its kind RDF Treatment Facility in the GCC \u2014 signed four MoUs with local cement producers<\/a> to add RDF to their energy mix in 2022. Emirates RDF also signed<\/a> an agreement to power Union Cement\u2019s production during the same year. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
