Is it issued (1.) The present invention relates to a process for treating used rubber and plastics. Used rubber and plastic products are subjected to vacuum pyrolysis to obtain non-condensable flammable gas, oil, and carbon-containing solid residues. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The treatment of used rubber and plastic products, such as vehicle tires, car fluff (plastic and rubber residues derived from car shattering), and worn-out derived fuel (RDF, Refiise Derived Fuel) are An important environmental issue. Vacuum pyrolysis of rubber and plastic fragments is the best technology available today. For example, U.S. Patent No. 4,740,270 describes a process for vacuum pyrolysis of tire fragments. In the process, tire fragments are moved from an upper tray to a lower tray in a multi-tray reaction tank with a conventional transfer system, and then pyrolyzed. Beta tire fragments were transferred from the upper tray to the lower tray with the control of the temperature gradient 'temperature from 200. (: Up to 500 ° C, so tire fragments can be continuously heated while moving down. The purpose of this process is to obtain high yield oil instead of non-condensable gas. In order to achieve this result, the patent recommends using Low pressure of less than 35 millimeters of mercury (mm Hg). It is known that rubber will begin to pyrolyze when it reaches above 200 ° C, and it will undergo a softening stage before pyrolysis. The softened tire fragments have a high viscosity And it is easy to adhere to any contact surface and cause blockage of the equipment. In the aforementioned multi-tray type reaction tank, as long as the transfer speed, temperature gradient, and thermal conductivity can be kept fixed, tire fragments will stick to one of the positions , And most of them are in the same one (please read the notes on the back before filling in this page) > Binding ..

On the tray. At this time, the rubber fragments may block a tray, causing the fragment to be transported and trapped by the gas generated by pyrolysis. At this time, the excessive pressure generated in the reaction tank may explode. Furthermore, in order to maintain the aforementioned low pressure of 35 millimeters of mercury (mmHg), the reaction rate must be carefully controlled and maintained at a low pressure. This means that the substance will stay in the reaction tank for a long time, so the volume of the reaction tank must be large enough. . In addition, the large reaction tank is relatively expensive, and the lower the pressure demand in the reaction tank, the more vacuum pump used requires more horsepower, and the more expensive it is. All these disadvantageous features make this equipment expensive and dangerous. The object of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages by using a vacuum pyrolysis process for the used rubber gray plastic, and the process is safe, effective, and economical. Detailed description of the present invention Therefore, the present invention provides a process for treating used rubber and plastics. The used rubbers and plastics are subjected to vacuum pyrolysis to obtain non-condensable flammable flammable oil, oil, And carbon-containing solid residues. The steps of mechanically mixing at least a portion of the carbon-containing solid residue and the rubber and plastic fragments in the reaction tank before and during the pyrolysis each include. This mechanical mixing can ensure a homogeneous solid block, rapid heat transfer from the reaction tank wall to the solid product, and reduce the time required for the reaction. The carbon-containing solid residue is a fine powder that will cover the plastic fragments. Therefore, during the softening stage, the plastic fragments can be prevented from sticking to any accessible surface. The paper size is applicable to the Chinese oak family standard (CNS > A4 specification).

The description of the invention (3 ·). In addition, carbon-containing solid residues can increase the transfer of thermal energy and reduce the time required for the reaction. Carbon-containing solid residues play a role in buffering thermal energy and eliminate temperature differences, which is particularly beneficial for processes using batch production This process is safe. And it is economical because it allows the use of smaller reaction tanks. It checks whether this carbon-containing solid residue has the opposite catalytic effect, that is, whether it will increase the pyrolysis of the oil into non- Conversion rate of condensable gas. It was found to be quite neutral when carbonaceous solid residues adsorb oil, compared with the absence of carbonaceous solid residues. Compared with the procedure, no decrease in oil yield was found. Typically, the entire pyrolysis of the rubber and plastic fragments is completed in batches, and the rubber and plastic fragments are successively loaded into the reaction tank. The 'in-time' is a carbon-containing solid residue produced by the previous batch of pyrolysis by mechanical mixing before and during pyrolysis. The preferred method is to further remove only the pyrolysis reactor from the reaction tank after pyrolysis. A part of the carbonaceous solid residue. Furthermore, the weight of the carbonaceous solid residue that is removed after pyrolysis can be made smaller than the carbonaceous solid residue of the next batch, and adjusted to each batch of pyrolysis The carbon-containing solid residue obtained afterwards is substantially a fixed amount. The weight mixing ratio of the preferred rubber and plastic chips and the carbon-containing solid residue is 1 to 3/5 to 1/5. The preferred rubber and plastic The chip size is 2x2 inches, or smaller. It uses the standard chip size provided by the best chip machines available today. When cutting rubber and plastic products, it is not necessary to separate the thin wires and wires in advance. Avoid costly separation procedures. It is converted into graphite powder and meets the standard of this paper in China.

Description of the invention (4.> The carbon black contained in the rubber is well mixed, and the steel wire can be easily removed with a tank separator after pyrolysis. Better reaction tank wall pressure It should be reduced to 0.5 to 0 * 9 bar. In a more advantageous configuration of the reaction tank, the wall of the reaction tank is heated from the outside by electricity or hot gas, so that the temperature of the wall of the reaction tank can reach 450 ° C to 550. C, the pyrolysis temperature range is between 350 C and 450 C. Typically, this process can produce 50 to 55% of oil, 3 to 8% of non-condensable flammable gases, and the remaining Carbonaceous solid residue. The carbon-containing solid residue system includes carbon black, graphite obtained by pyrolyzing fine wires, zinc oxide, sulfur, silicate, other minerals, and steel wire rods. The yield depends on the quality of the material being pyrolyzed, and the possible use of the product obtained after pyrolysis depends on the technology currently recovered. -(Please read the note on the back ^ before filling this page) • J--Order-Ministry of Economic Affairs. ¾ Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Property Bureau 1¾.-Paper 遑 Rate Home 1?
