Fact Sheet: Refuse/Rubbish Derived Fuel, Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) and Process Engineered Fuel (PEF)

We have become aware that some councils have been approached with a proposal to use their community's landfilled waste to create Process Engineered Fuel (PEF). There is already a facility in Pōkeno creating PEF from plastic waste that is burned in the Whangārei cement kiln.

We are releasing a new Fact Sheet that outlines the current situation (as we understand it) and some of the key issues for local councils.
