Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF) is distinct from [[RDF]] in that its quality as a fuel is far superior. It is typically used in processes that require a high quality, small particle size, high [[Calorific Value]], low [[Moisture Content]] material – such as cement kilns and new-generation [[ATT]] plants.

Solid Recovered Fuels are covered by international technical specifications which set, amongst other parameters, the chemical and physical parameters of an SRF <ref>[https://www.iso.org/committee/5960430.html] ISO/TC 300 Solid Recoverd Fuels </ref>

Whilst the data for SRF is often reported within the overall [[Waste Derived Fuel]]/[[RDF]] statistics, there is increasing evidence of a proportional growth in SRF production in the context of a reduction in [[RDF]] export<ref>CIWM Presidential Report 2018 – RDF Trading in a Modern World</ref>.
Whilst the data for the export of SRF from the UK is often reported within the overall [[Waste Derived Fuel]]/[[RDF]] statistics, there is increasing evidence of a proportional growth in SRF production and export in the context of a reduction in [[RDF]] export<ref>CIWM Presidential Report 2018 – RDF Trading in a Modern World</ref>.
