Description: Malaysia is the world’s top manufacturer of examination and surgical NR gloves, exported mainly to US and Europe. Glove manufacturing process yields effluent which needs to be treated to comply with the stringent regulatory requirements imposed by the Malaysian Department of Environment (DOE). To make glove manufacturing an eco-friendly process, efforts are geared towards minimizing and utilizing waste and turning it into raw material for making other products. Waste generated from glove industry is mainly the rubber sludge which is obtained from the chemical flocculation stage of effluent treatment process and consists of mainly rubber, remnants of compounding ingredients and water. R&D work by Malaysian Rubber Board on waste utilization and resource recovery investigations revealed many uses for this sludge. This paper briefly outlines only one of the many options available, which is the conversion of the sludge into refuse derived fuel (RDF).
