Avelair – 440kW Compressed Air Installation

Case Study: Avelair have recently commissioned one of its largest UK compressed air installations in a leading recycling plant. The compressed air is being used in a new recycling facility to process 120,000 tonnes per annum of mixed wastes, from which it will produce aggregates and refuse derived fuel. The tonnage is made up of 90,000 tonnes per year of RDF, 20,000 tonnes of inert waste and a further 10,000 tonnes of wood waste. At the site, mixed wastes are deposited and then are brought through the facility via processes which are largely automated and consists of shredding, optical sorting, trommels, ballistic separators, magnets and baling. This produces refuse derived fuel, with aggregates, metals, plastics and fines as by-products.
