Thermoplastic waste from industrial enterprises and commerce constitutes a considerable potential for conservation of energy resources. Another energy resource is organic fibres, such as woodfibres from waste. By ad ding waste fibres and thermoplastic waste in a composite ENCO we have got a new fuel pellet/material. Thermoplastic waste from polyethylene (P E) and polypropylene (PP) together with woodfibres are used in ENCO to reach a high energy density.
