Making high quality fuel from Wood Waste


Wood dust

Since new legislation on waste disposal came into effect in Germany and across Europe, it has become more and more important for companies to find low-cost methods of recycling their waste materials. This is especially true if these waste materials have a high energy content and we want to take them back into the energy cycle.

Wood is a natural product which - highly compacted as a briquette - almost takes on the burning behavior of coal. Owing to their great density wood briquettes have a higher calorific value than the same quantity of firewood. They can be used instead of coal or wood in domestic solid-fuel stoves as well in industrial furnaces.

The RUF Briquetting Press reduces the volume of your waste to save on storage and haulage costs. Your wood remains a natural product because it is briquettied without binder. Burning briquettes as fuel closes a natural conservation cycle - on combustion they only release as much carbon dioxide back into the atmosphere as was originally absorbed by the growing tree during photosynthesis. All requirements of DIN 51731 are met.
