The supplier says that the line will consist of a 700m pipe conveyor, silos, distribution equipment and a screen. It will be equipped with a BG OptiFeed screw weigh feeder. It will connect the preheater both to an existing warehouse and a new one at the site. The line will handle two different qualities of refuse-derived fuel (RDF) and shredded tyres. It will be operated at a maximum capacity of 40t/hr. Commissioning is scheduled for 2022.
