Potential utilization of commercial waste in Jakarta as alternative fuel by cement industry

et al. 2020

As the capital city of Indonesia, Jakarta had a population of 10.2 million in 2015 that generated 6200 metric tonnes (Mt) day−1 of municipal waste in the 2017–2019 period. In the composition of the waste, as much as 9% is contributed by the commercial sector. This research focuses on five shopping areas in Jakarta (commercial areas (CAs)). The five CAs produce 110 Mt of waste per day and 79% of them are disposed of in landfills. 95% of the waste is a combustible fraction which can be used as an alternative fuel by the cement industry because the fraction has a low heating value of around 24 MJ kg−1. It is estimated that in one year, the CAs can produce about 34,500 Mt of alternative fuel with 820 TJ of energy. Approximately, the resulting energy savings are 2.6% which is equal to approximately 35,500 Mt of coal. In addition, the utilization of alternative fuel can reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 1.7% or 50,000 Mt.

“…Municipal waste is potential source for alternative energy. Several research show processing municipal waste could generate significant sustainable energy, reduce GHG emission as well as process waste properly [2,10,11,16,17,18,32]. Application of WtE in NSW Australia can generate 4,165 GWh/year or equivalent to 5,9% of the installed electricity generation capacity [32].…”

“…The use of old waste in Semarang landfill is projected to produce 4.04 GWh/year [2]. High organic fraction and moisture municipal waste is still potential for RDF production in Banda Aceh, Indonesia [10], economically still feasible as indicated in Lampang Thailand [11]. Moreover, the utilization of RDF to substitute coal could give advantages for environment, financial saving and GHG emissions reduction as has been applied in Turkey [15], Canada [16], and Portugal [18].…”

“…Previous research in Indonesia and Asian countries show that municipal waste is potential for RDF production. In Semarang landfill, municipal waste has calorific value between 5,500 to 6,070 kcal/kg without recycling [10,11,12,13,14]. No research has been conducted in Indonesia to see energy potential while the municipal waste has been taken for recycling.…”

Modernization of waste processing through Waste-to-Energy has been a new trend to solve waste management and energy scarcity. This model however it may raise a conflict with recycling activities. This article establishes a methodological approach to assess Non-Recycled Waste for Refuse Derived Fuels materials. The approach is simulated by using calorific value of waste from Semarang Landfill which has calorific value 5,500 to 6,070 kcal/kg and waste composition of Banjarmasin Landfill which has been classified according to recycling perspective. The simulation shows that a low recycling rate (25% plastic and paper taken for recycling) will produce 3,882 kcal/Kg while a high recycling rate (50%) will produce 3,793 kcal/Kg. This simulation successfully calculates that non-recycled waste materials are still potential for RDFs materials.

“…oil sludge, pulp sludge, textile sludge, and food processing sludge). In this study, RDF made from the MSW was used to determine the composition, fuel efficiency, and combustion characteristics of refuse (Asamoah et al, 2016; Dianda et al, 2018; Gug et al, 2015), as well as to evaluate the pyrolytic decomposition of the RDF (Massaro et al, 2014). In addition, since RDF is used in industrial boilers, the cement industry (Hemidat et al, 2019; Ozkan and Banar, 2010), and power plants (Násner et al, 2017; Surroop and Mohee, 2011), the auto shredder residue was also treated with gas plasma to measure the carbon conversion rate and energy conversion efficiency (Singh et al, 2012).…”

Municipal solid waste landfill age and refuse-derived fuel

Landfill sites are hard to obtain in Taiwan. Municipal solid waste (MSW) in the closed landfill sites has high combustible content and calorific value (CV). Therefore, activating the closed landfill sites as municipal mine sites to prolong their service life will promote a sustainable environment. This study transforms combustibles from the closed municipal landfill sites of different landfill ages (LAs) into refuse-derived fuel (RDF) through pretreatment and squeeze forming equipment, so to investigate the characteristics of the MSW of different LAs, and the manufacturing conditions and firing behaviour of RDF. The results indicate that the proportion of the combustibles in MSW declines as the LA grows, and therefore the proportions of both incombustible materials and soil and debris correspondingly increased. The LA of the MSW is thus negatively correlated with the CV. The MSW at the LA of 10 years still has high potential as fuel material. The fixed carbon initiation temperatures (i.e. ignition temperatures) of combustibles of the MSW at the LAs of 1 year, 5 years and 10 years are 259°C, 256°C and 245°C, respectively. The CV and flame temperature of the RDF increase slightly with the increasing squeeze temperature (ST) at 100–120°C, but it will decrease when the ST reaches 130°C. Therefore, this study recommends the squeeze pressure of the RDF as 41.65 ± 8.24 kg cm−2, ST 110°C and combustible size 10–20 mm.
