Buffalo Fuel is engineered to burn hotter, cleaner, & more efficiently

A 20-year, unmatched waste management solution that was green before anyone knew green was more than a color.

What is Buffalo Fuel and how is it made?

Buffalo Fuel (Engineered Fuel) is utilized by cement and lime kilns throughout the United States and Canada as a cleaner, greener replacement for traditional fossil fuels. Buffalo Fuel is created by blending various forms of waste products including used tires, unrecyclable paper and plastic debris, and non-hazardous industrial wastes. These ingredients are spec’d, destroyed, and shredded together to meet and exceed all environmental and heat qualifications required by the respective kilns. What remains is a fuel that reduces kiln emissions and is a direct replacement for traditional feedstocks such as coal.
