Standard Attestation System |
 Overview |
|
| |
The RPF Quality and Standard Attestation System
facilitates the use of waste plastic—which is difficult
to recycle and usually burned or landfilled—as a recycled
product by turning it into solid fuel. |
|
| Definition
of RPF |
|
| |
RPF is solid fuel made of combustible wastes
(excluding designated and infectious wastes) which is produced
after going through a selection, crush, dry, and molding process.
It contains a certain level of moisture, and 60% or more plastic
(according to its weight). |

| Facilities
Using RPF |
| |
| |
| Class |
a |
*Cement furnaces using RPF as
auxiliary fuel within 30% and below of the heating value, which
are equipped with a dry, half-dry, or wet treatment system (including
treatment process) in order to treat acid gas, and with an electric
precipitation or bag filter to treat fly ash.
*Thermal power plants of 10MW and above, and regional heating
facilities using 2 tons and above/h of coal or 1,200 liters
and above/h of liquid fuel.
*Industrial boilers, shaft furnaces of iron works, and sludge
treatment facilities. |
| b |
Industrial boilers exclusively using 2 tons
and above/h of RPF, which are equipped with a dry, half-dry,
or wet treatment system in order to treat acid gas, and with
an electric precipitation or bag filter in order to treat fly
ash. They must also pass the performance test to ensure their
performance is equivalent to that of an incinerator. |
| Class
B |
*Industrial boilers exclusively using 200kg
and above and less than 2 tons/h of RPF, which are equipped
with a dry, half-dry, or wet treatment system in order to treat
acid gas, and with an electric precipitation or bag filter in
order to treat fly ash. They must also pass the performance
test to ensure their performance is equivalent to that of an
incinerator.
*Sludge treatment facilities using 200kg and above/h and less
than 2 tons/h of RPF. |
