A new state of the art RDF line in Southeast Asia utilizes SSI shredders to create a closed-loop process
Industrial shredder manufacturers SSI Shredding Systems Inc., are working SCG Cement-Building Products Co., LTD to create an industrial waste-power plant which will have the ability to handle both hazardous and non-hazardous.
Map Tah Phut, Rayong Province, Thailand – March 16, 2020 – Installation of three SSI shredders have begun with plans for the industrial waste-power plant to start full operation by early 2020. The system is expected to process upwards of 65,000 tons of industrial waste each year.
SCG’s Circular Way and its “Zero Waste to Landfill” policy, has launched multiple projects including this new plant which will be the first of its kind in Southeast Asian to use Japanese based technology for gasification and ash-melting.
“We are aware that industrial waste without proper management can affect the environment and communities a great deal,” says Chana Poomee, vice president for Cement and Construction Solution Business at SCG. “We have implemented the plan to raise public awareness among target groups and local communities, highlighting the plant’s remarkable technologies, standards, and residue-free waste disposal.”
The Map Ta Phut Plant will feature a PRI-MAX® primary reducer and two Quad® four-shaft industrial shredders. The PRI-MAX allows the bulk-feeding of commingled waste to produce flowable, sortable, output at rates up to 20 tons per hour. The Quad® shredders are used to produce the final product size as well as acting as a unique single-step process option.
“SSI is excited to be part of the new SCG Industrial waste-power plant,” says Rich Ellis, Asia Market Sales Manager. “Our shredders hybrid design uses a combination of slow and fast speed characteristics to allow the processing of a wide variety of materials including high moisture content and heavy contamination. The line also includes the ability to feed the Quad® sizing units. This allows for continual production even during times of maintenance.”
