GEP ECOTECH has provided the Macau Waste Incineration Centre with a production line that processes scrap tyres into TDF at a rate of 3 tons per hour
GEP ECOTECH, a Chinese leader in solid waste processing technologies, has successfully implemented a tyre-derived fuel (TDF) production line as part of the Macau Waste Incineration Centre’s third-phase expansion. The state-of-the-art facility processes scrap tyres at a rate of 3 tons per hour, converting them into a high-calorific fuel that will contribute significantly to Macau’s alternative energy needs.
This expansion not only boosts the city’s capacity to treat municipal solid waste, now handling up to 1,300 tons per day, but also introduces advanced solutions for processing special and hazardous waste. As part of Macau’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, the centre is expected to produce 400 million kWh of energy annually from alternative fuels, a key component of the city’s strategy to reduce its reliance on fossil fuels.
Wang Chunyang, GEP ECOTECH’s Project Installation Manager, highlighted the significance of the company’s involvement in this prestigious project; “The third-phase expansion at the Macau Waste Incineration Centre features cutting-edge equipment sourced from leading global brands. Being selected to provide the TDF production line is a clear testament to the superior quality of our solutions. It reflects our commitment to international standards and underscores the trust that major clients place in our technologies.”
GEP ECOTECH’s tyre shredding system, specifically engineered for this project, ensures that scrap tires are processed efficiently, maximising fuel output while minimising waste. The technology plays a pivotal role in addressing both energy and environmental challenges by transforming discarded tyres into a valuable resource.
The expansion of the Macau Waste Incineration Centre aligns with global trends in waste-to-energy initiatives, where the use of alternative fuels such as TDF, RDF, and SRF reduces greenhouse gas emissions and landfill dependency. By turning waste into a valuable energy source, GEP ECOTECH helps cities like Macau achieve their sustainability goals while contributing to the circular economy.
