AB  - This article investigates the recovery of typical wastes (coal slime, sawdust, 
      cardboard and tire pyrolysis residue) as part of high-moisture slurry fuels. 
      Using a laboratory furnace, the ignition and combustion characteristics of fuels 
      as well as NO(x) and SO(x) emissions were determined. Using multiple-criteria 
      decision-making (MCDM) methods and experimental results, we access the 
      performance of four different slurry fuels in comparison with bituminous coal. 
      The novelty of the study is based on the following features: we consider a unique 
      set of parameters of the fuels (economic, environmental, safety and energy 
      indicators), as well as three countries for their potential use (the USA, India 
      and Russia); three different methods for calculating the efficiency indicator of 
      each fuel were used. Despite rather low energy performance, the summarizing 
      efficiency indicator of waste-based slurries was 53-93% higher than that of coal. 
      The use of cardboard in the composition of a fuel blend showed the best complex 
      result (the increase in the efficiency indicator was 80-93% relative to coal). 
      The least promising additive was the pyrolysis residue of automobile tires. Its 
      addition resulted in a 10-15% decrease in overall efficiency relative to a slurry 
      without additives. The research results are useful for optimizing the component 
      composition of waste-based slurries, technical and economic development of 
      projects for the incineration of various wastes in the form of high-moisture fuel 
      slurries.
