Summary

• Use of engineered fuel is proofen and safe technology

• Many types of waste can be processed into fuel

• Cement production with engineered fuels can be both: economical and ecological

• Use of MSW and industrial waste can lead to more sustainable waste management concepts for urban areas or rural regions
