What Is an AFR Pre-Processing Plant?
An AFR Pre-Processing Plant plays a crucial role in converting waste into usable Alternative Fuels and Raw Materials (AFR). These plants process materials such as RDF (Refuse Derived Fuel), SRF (Solid Recovered Fuel), biomass, plastic waste, tyre chips, sludge, and other combustible residues that contain recoverable calorific value.
In an AFR pre-processing system, waste undergoes multiple stages including size reduction, screening, sorting, drying, and metal removal. These processes improve fuel consistency, enhance calorific value, and ensure the material meets industry standards for co-processing.
By enabling efficient waste utilization, AFR pre-processing plants help industries reduce landfill dependency, lower fossil fuel consumption, and support circular economy and sustainability goals.
We specialize in delivering complete AFR pre-processing plant solutions — from initial concept and feasibility to installation and commissioning.

AFR is widely used in the cement sector to increase the Thermal Substitution Rate (TSR). Our pre-processing systems ensure consistent, high-quality fuel that supports long kiln runs, reduces fossil fuel use, and aligns with emission norms and sustainability goals.
Steel plants benefit from AFR by using alternative fuel materials in preheating and furnace operations. Our solutions help reduce dependency on coal, cut energy costs, and support the steel sector's environmental compliance efforts.
Paper mills can utilize RDF/SRF as a supplemental energy source during production. Our technology helps reduce waste handling costs and improve energy efficiency, contributing to greener paper processes.
We supply high-calorific, pre-processed waste fuel ideal for combustion in power plants. This supports energy recovery from MSW and industrial waste, lowers landfill pressure, and promotes circular economy practices.
