India: Thiruvananthapuram city Corporation has conducted a trial run of its refuse-derived fuel (RDF) plant at Sanmathi Park, Chala. The plant processes up to 1t/day of legacy waste, which is hard to segregate, to produce fuel for cement plants. The plant processes 40kg of materials per 15-minute cycle. Currently, non-recyclable materials are sent to Tamil Nadu cement plants. The government plans to establish at least one RDF plant per district as a permanent solution.
