Fuel Blending Services

Fuel Blending is an environmentally safe and economical solution, by which RCRA hazardous and non-hazardous wastes can be blended together with other combustible waste streams to create a fuel that can be burned in cement kilns to manufacture cement.

The use of this waste as a fuel in cement kilns has many benefits, as it prevents thousands of tons of waste from going into our landfills or waste incinerators and lowers the amount of non-renewable resources used, such as coal. Cement kilns are more efficient at burning hazardous waste than conventional waste incinerators and release less CO2 as well. They also burn the waste at higher temperatures for longer durations, allowing for a more complete burning of the waste. 

Ultimately, fuel blending is a more efficient and cost-effective method of disposal than incineration, while conserving coal and other fossil fuels by using the waste as a fuel in the process.

Not all hazardous waste is compatible with the fuel–blending process, and each stream must be evaluated to meet the kiln’s specifications. Because of this, hiring an experienced and highly qualified waste management company is important in keeping your business regulations compliant at the local, state, and federal levels.

At WasteXpress, we can package small jars and bottles that will eventually be poured off into drums or totes. We can also pick up your drums, totes, and tankers of waste alcohols, solvents, and flammables. All of which will be pumped into rail cars and transported to a cement kiln for use as an alternative fuel. Fuel blending is just one of the many ways we provide our customers with the most efficient and environmentally-friendly means of disposal in Oregon and Washington State.
