contents The increasing generation of municipal solid waste (MSW) has highlighted the need for sustainable waste management practices. Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) presents a viable solution by converting non-recyclable, combustible components of MSW into an alternative fuel source. This study evaluates the energy recovery potential of RDF, focusing on its calorific value, environmental benefits, and role in reducing landfill dependency. RDF can be utilized in industrial processes such as cement kilns, thermal power plants, and waste-to-energy facilities, offering a cleaner alternative to conventional fossil fuels. This study emphasizes RDF's potential to contribute significantly to energy sustainability and waste management in urban settings, with specific insights into its applicability in Moradabad city. The energy recovery potential of MSW is 1513 KWh/tons with 30% energy conversion efficiency.
