POWDERY ALTERNATIVE FUEL

The invention relates to a method to produce powdery alternative fuel by milling pellets, which pellets are produced by: (i) providing waste material comprising one or more thermoplastic material(s) of more than 40%, based on the total dry weight of the waste and one or more cellulosic material(s) of more than 30%, based on the total dry weight of the waste, wherein the waste has a particle size distribution with more than 80% larger than 5 mm and more than 95% smaller than 60 mm, having a water content of about 8 wt% or less; (ii) subjecting the waste material through a pelletiser with holes between 4-8 mm, and a length ratio of more than 10, such that the output temperature is about 85 °C or lower, (iii) subjecting the pellets through a second pelletiser with holes between 2 and 8 mm, and a length ratio of more than 14, such that the output temperature is about 110 °C or higher; (iv) to provide pellets, (v) and the pellets are cooled to a temperature of about 30 °C or lower. The powdery alternative fuel can be transported in bulk and through blowing lines.
