End-to-End Refuse Derived Fuel RDF) Export Solution

Totus provides a full End-to-End RDF management service to some of the UK’s best known waste and recycling companies. The service ensures that, from the point of production, customers’ RDF and SRF will be collected, shipped and used in the production of sustainable energy, in full compliance with UK (and country of destination) law.

Totus’ service removes the need for the time consuming sourcing of new off take facilities. It also ensures that all the correct documentation and processes are in place, including a valid TFS (Transfrontier Shipment).

Highly Efficient Logistics

Whilst obtaining capacity and competitive gate fees with off-takers is vital, the cost of road transport and shipping represents a significant proportion of the overall disposal. From on site baling and wrapping services, through to the provision of road, shipping and port services, Totus provides customers with a full logistics service, leaving them free to focus on their core business.

Totus is continually looking at innovative shipping solutions, including the use of side port vessels and the development of back haul routes to minimise costs. The company’s loose load RDF service can provide a cost effective way for smaller producers to benefit from access to international facilities.

Totus’ ability to minimise transport costs increases the distance RDF can travel, opening up potential for new off-takers with attractive gate fees.

Totus Environmental is one of the UK’s leading providers of innovative international waste management solutions. Working with clients across the commercial, municipal and hazardous waste sectors, Totus has developed an unrivalled network of recycling and recovery outlets.

The company’s international experience and partnerships provide its clients with fully compliant and cost-effective alternatives to the UK market, where treatment options can have limited capability and capacity.

Wide Network for Off-take Facilities

Whilst the domestic and traditional export markets in northern Europe are still viable, they are at risk of becoming saturated. This results in increased gate fees and less stable demand. It also results in increased road transport and shipping costs as the capacity on these routes is reduced.

Totus has developed partnerships with a wide range of international facilities, in both the traditional and developing markets. This provides customers with choice and flexibility, enabling them to sustain the cost benefits traditionally associated with RDF energy recovery.

Optimising Fuel Value

Totus’ operational and technical experience enables them to manage and support the transition of customers’ fuels production from RDF to higher specification fuels, including Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF).

This transition management opens new markets in other energy intensive industries such as the paper and pulp industry and cement manufacturing who require a higher quality more consistent product. This offers significantly improved gate fees and the opportunity to develop a secure and long term off-take solutions as governments and businesses work to meet their emissions and sustainable energy targets.

Improved Management Information

Totus is able to provide customers with real time asset tracking, down to each individual bale of RDF that they produce and ship. This information can be used to monitor the movement and location of fuel and also to provide evidence of disposal at a licenced facility, in accordance with the producers Duty of Care obligations.

Consultancy

With over 10 years experience in the RDF export market Totus is able to provide clients with practical advice on how to improve the efficiency of their logistics operations and expand their off-take market.
