Quality Based PEF Concept

Over the past few years E2 and TITAN Cement have developed an approach to the utilization of solid alternative fuels in cement kilns. Our end product (Processed Engineered Fuel) differs from conventional solid alternative fuels in that we try to start with the best material possible as the main feedstock and then add selected industrial and commercial by-products of known and consistent composition to improve the overall mix and thus achieve the desired quality specifications. The PEF concept allows for maximum thermal substitution rates at either a main burner or in a calciner because the product is matched to the specific cement kilns needs and limits.
