UK: Andusia has exported 1.6Mt of refuse-derived fuel (RDF) and solid-recovered fuel (SRF) since its foundation in early 2012. The company said that the waste has not only been diverted from UK landfill but has generated power for people in northern mainland Europe. Exports rose following the lift of Covid-19 trade restrictions. Andusia added that it has since then secured several new contracts.

Spain: UK-based Andusia has successfully completed its first delivery of solid recovered fuel (SRF) from its Beaupark Associated Waste Management SRF plant in Leeds, West Yorkshire to a cement plant in Spain. The supplier says that the delivery marks the start of the supply of 5000t/yr to the plant. The fuel will replace a portion of the coal and petcoke in the plant’s kiln line.

UK: Andusia says that a Covid-19 decline in waste produced by the UK is at an end, and has predicted the start of growth in the near term future. The waste management company said that major factors for growth will be the continuation of office work, the end of hospitality restrictions and the recovery of public confidence in consumption.

In 2020, commercial and industrial waste generation fell by 50% year-on-year, while municipal waste rose by 20%. Exports of refuse-derived fuel (RDF) fell by 37% during the year.

UK: Solid recovered fuel (SRF) specialist Andusia has announced the signing of a supply contract for 10,000t/yr of SRF to “a cement plant in the Mediterranean.” The company said, “The deal only further reinforces Andusia’s position in the market as the UK’s largest independent exporter of refuse-derived fuel (RDF), SRF and, more recently, hazardous and clinical waste.”

UK: Alternative fuels producer Andusia has said that the coronavirus has yet to impact upon the trade of refuse-derived fuel (RDF) in and out of Europe. It says it is monitoring the situation and will keep customers updated. “No change to service is anticipated,” said Andusia. “There are no border restrictions to trade and it is business as usual.”

UK: Andusia has formed a partnership with Mid UK Recycling to export over 20,000t/yr of solid-recovered fuel (SRF) to two unnamed cement plants in the Mediterranean region. Mid UK Recycling is part of Beauparc Group. It incorporates Panda and Greenstar in Ireland and Mid-UK Recycling, WSR, Scotwaste and AWM in the UK. The group produces over 0.5Mt/yr of SRF.

“We have been assisting Mid UK Recycling with their RDF offtake in recent years and are delighted to now be able to take their SRF as an alternative fuel. They are such a like-minded company, passionate about the future of waste management and diverting from UK landfill and we look forward to working with them going forward,” said Stewart Brackenbury, director and founder of Andusia.

UK: Andusia has signed a solid recovered fuel supply (SRF) supply contract with Powerday, a recycling and waste management company based in London. Powerday can process up to 1.6Mt/yr of construction, demolition, municipal, commercial and industrial waste.

Powerday completed a Euro2.25m upgrade to its materials recovery facility (MRF) in west London in mid-2018. Andusia and Powerday have formed a partnership in order to export 10,000t/yr of SRF to be recovered at a cement plant in the Mediterranean. This is one of Powerday’s first SRF trades since completing its MRF facility upgrade.

UK: Fraser Cutting has been appointed as the Hazardous Waste Manager at Andusia Recovered Fuels. He will be dealing with hazardous waste enquiries as well as assisting with the sourcing and disposal of refuse-derived fuel (RDF) and solid-recovered fuel (SRF).

Cutting holds 32 years in the hazardous waste sector. He started out at Cory Waste Management, before moving to Cleanaway as Manager at the Cambridge Waste Management Centre. He then moved to manage the waste arising at a large oil refinery and eventually spent the last 10 years managing the waste from a large regional hospital for the NHS.

UK: Andusia has exported its first consignment of solid recovered fuel (SRF) to an unnamed cement producer operating a Mediterranean plant. The deal is the company’s first SRF contract.

“As Andusia diversifies into other forms of recovered fuels exported to Europe and also within the UK, we hope this further demonstrates how knowledgeable and diverse our business and the Andusia team is,” said Mark Terrell, director at Andusia.
