SRF Production Facility by Lindner saves 1 Million t of CO2

SRF Production Facility Saves One Million Tons of CO2

15 years ago ThermoTeam started producing solid recovered fuels for the cement industry. Incredibly, one million tons of energy rich SRF have already left the production line designed entirely by Lindner-Recyclingtech. With this innovative facility for sustainable and environmentally friendly waste processing in Styria, Austria, cement manufacturer Lafarge has already been able to save 1.2 million metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2). This is the amount of CO2 that the average car would emit while circumnavigating the earth approximately 230.000 times.

ThermoTeam Alternativbrennstoffverwertungs GmbH in Feldkirchen near Graz is a joint venture between Lafarge Perlmooser Holding AG and Saubermacher Dienstleistungs AG. On February 28th, 2018 the company celebrated 15 years of successful SRF production at the Retznei site in Styria with guests from politics, business and research, and announced more trailblazing investments in the future. The innovative SRF facility went into operation in June 2003; since then, it has already produced one million tons of high-calorific SRF from mixed municipal and industrial waste, which is then largely co-incinerated in the neighbouring Retznei cement works.

An excellent concept

Lindner-Recyclingtech in Spittal an der Drau, Carinthia played a key role in this success story. From the planning stage, production and assembly of the system components to the inauguration and initial use of the machine, the leading supplier of shredding solutions for the waste processing and recycling industry with a focus on the SRF market was involved from the very beginning and designed the complete processing line.

Primary and secondary shredders, ferrous and non-ferrous separators, a wind sifter as well as feeding systems, conveyor and discharge belts were supplied and installed. The plant was approved in accordance with the Austrian Waste Management Act’s (AWG) strict criteria to comply with emission and immission limits. As early as 2003 ThermoTeam was awarded the Environmental Protection Award of the Province of Styria for their work. Since 2004 the company has been a certified waste management company.

At the start of the SRF production line is a Lindner Meteor stationary – a stationary primary shredder. The predecessor of the manufacturer’s Jupiter machine series already has over 70.000 operating hours under its belt. Over a period of ten years the Meteor has processed an incredible one million metric tons of input material. All Lindner shredders have a common characteristic: they are virtually unaffected by foreign objects. Damage to the machine can be largely excluded and even the most difficult materials are processed effortlessly. The hydraulic maintenance door for easy and convenient removal of foreign objects and machine cleaning is another unique feature of Lindner products.
