fuel feed. Mostly local SA region relatively high calorific value to assist kiln operations (operating temperature is approximately 1600 °C) concerns regarding consistent waste supply requirements to warrant the effort of further investigation. Adelaide Brighton Cement, Angaston, SA Cement kiln – three kilns 250,000 tpa Currently treats < 20% woodchip derived fuel, carbon powder, waste fuel and some miscellaneous waste streams. Predominantly SA region The facility can treat additional volumes of existing waste streams and additional wastes that may require adaptation of feed and handling systems. Modifications can be made to the facility regarding the feed process into the kiln and waste handling/storage facilities/procedures. Having three kilns potentially provides some flexibility of feed types. Adelaide Brighton would need to work with licensing authorities in SA to evaluate options and undertake feasibility. The company expressed concerns regarding consistent waste supply to warrant the effort of further investigation. Further evaluation of suitable problem waste streams should be considered and feasibility of the Angaston facility to be modified to take additional volumes. This will also need to include evaluation of air emission impacts.
