Why Waste Textiles?
- High Calorific Value = Cost Savings
- Baled for easy transport & sale
- Dry-base calorific value: ~5,000 × 4.18 kJ/kg
- Pure polyester textiles: 5,500 kcal/kg (comparable to lignite)
- Blended fabrics: >4,000 kcal/kg
- Average combustion value: 4,500–5,000 kcal/kg (75% of coal)
When supplied to cement plants, waste textiles significantly reduce coal consumption and procurement costs.
HARDEN’s Solution: High-Efficiency RDF/SRF Production
With over a decade of expertise in waste processing, Harden Machinery Ltd. delivers an optimized solution for converting waste textiles into high-calorific RDF/SRF. Core Concept: “Finer Shredding, Faster Sorting, More Precise Separation”. Guided by this principle, HARDEN has developed a dedicated textile RDF/SRF production system, offering higher efficiency and precision for industrial waste processing.
Key Applications
The system processes:
- Waste textiles (discarded clothing, fabric scraps)
- Leather offcuts
- Waste plastics & other general industrial waste
Advanced Processing: “Shredding + Air Classification + Magnetic Separation”
Primary shredding → Metal/heavy material removal
Fine shredding → Final RDF/SRF size: 30–80 mm
The Future of Industrial Waste: Reduce, Reuse, Recover
Converting waste textiles, leather, and plastics into high-energy RDF/SRF represents a sustainable shift in industrial waste management:
- Cost savings (reduced fossil fuel dependency)
- Major carbon footprint reduction
HARDEN is driving the transition toward zero-waste, low-carbon industrial production.
