TITLE
Method and apparatus for anaerobic microwave reduction of organic and inorganic molecular complexes.
ABSTRACT
The method and apparatus for anaerobic microwave reduction of organic and inorganic molecular complexes can be utilized for the reduction of molecular complexes comprised of a number of basic elements, including but not limited to: carbon, hydrogen, oxygan, nitrogen, sulpher, and chlorine. The reduction is performed with the use of focused microwave energy in an environment in which the free flow of oxygan is controlled.
Complex molecules can be reduced into simpler molecular forms or reduced back to the basic elements contained in the complex.

Description
2~ 3 SP~CIFICATIONS
This invention relates to the reduction or breaking down of organic or inorganic molecular complexes or structures into simpler elemental forms. The process is carried out with the control of the free flow of oxygan or in other words in an anaerobic atmosphere.
To date our society has evolved to a point where ~e are mass consumers of energy and material goods and as of yet we have not resolved the ultimate disposition of the by-products or wastes of this mass consumption. -Current state of the art production of materials for the production of energy or material goods is controlled by two main factors:
first, the economics of both capital expenditure and operation costs, and the second factor is the social acceptability of the ;
environmental effects. The disposition of the by-products or wastes are controlled by the same two factors. The inventor believes that no other method or apparatus addresses the impending energy crisis and waste crisis with the scope and magnitude embodied in this invention.
The use of focused mlcrowave energy ln an anaerobic process - -~
addresses the economic and environmental concerns of the production of materials for energy production and the production of goods, and addresses the economic and environmental concerns of the disposition of by-products and waste materials and in most applications addresses all of these factors and concerns con~
currently.
Focused microwave reduction in an anaerobic process utilizes ~ -no burning or oxidization and as a result does not produce further generations of molecular complexes, instead it results in the reduction or breakdown of the existing molecular complexes -~
in the materials to be processed.

DESCRIPTION
The specific application of the proce<,s will determine whether a batch style system or a continuous feed (flow through) ~stem is required.
A description of the batch system is as follows~
The batch style system (as illustrated in d~agram A) consists of- A-1 - ,anaerobic processing chamber A-2 - material han~ling tray A-3 - ~icrowave generation system A-4 - microwave guide (also illustrated in diagram C) A-5 - aspirator manifold A-6 - condensing system A-7 - gas collection or scrubbing system A-8 - inert gas purging system The batch style process begins with the loading of the materials to be processed into the material handling tray (A-2). The material handling tray (A-2) is loaded into the anaerobic pro-cessing chamber (A-1). The anaerobic processing chamber (A-1) is sealed and purged with inert gas to evacuate any free oxygan with the use of the inert gas purging system (A-8). Once the majority of free oxygan has been purged, the material to be processed is exposed to focused microwave energy generated by the microwave generation system (A-3) and focused by the micro-wave guide (A-4). The material to be processed is exposed to a set frequency of microwave energy for a set retention time and the ~requency and retention time are specific to the particular material to be processed. Upon exposure to the focused microwave energy, the material to be processed will breakdown or reduce into a solid fractiQn and a gaseous fi~action. The gaseous fraction is formed through sublimation or evaporation (depending on the~material to be processed). The formation of the gaseous ', fraction ¢reates a positive pressure which forces the gaseous vapor8 through the aspirator manifold (A-5) and into the con-densing'~system (A-6). The condensi~g system will be single or mu ~ -~t~ge ~depending on the~material to be processed). The ma~ority o r the gaseous vapors are seIectivly condensed. Any gasèoU~vapors that are not condensed will be collected in the gas,¢ollect~on or scrubbin~ system (A-7). Upon completion of thè~retention;time; the solids remaining in the material handling tray,tA-2)~i~re removed and at that point the system is ready to~go~through another cycle.

The formation of the gaseous vapors creates a positive pressure which forces the gaseous vapors through the aspirator manifold t8-6) and into the condensing system (B-7).
The condensing system will be single or multi stage depending on the specif~c materials to be processed. The majority of the gaseous materials are selectivly condensed into either a solid condensed fraction or a liquid conden6ed fraction.
