Description
- This application claims priority to Taiwan Patent Application No. 098138048 filed on Nov. 10, 2009, the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to a continuous pyrolysis system; more particularly, the present invention relates to a continuous pyrolysis system having a solid product reformer, which is especially suitable for processing waste tires.
- 2. Descriptions of the Related Art
- The process of recycling waste tires generally falls into one of two categories. One is the physical processing method, in which the waste tires are first broken up, then the steel wires, nylon and rubber are separated, and finally the rubber is recycled to produce reclaimed rubber. However, as a kind of recycled material, the reclaimed rubber has poor quality and is unsuitable for use as a raw material to produce tires, so such a recycling process is known to have a low resource utilization factor and poor economic benefits. The other processing method incorporates a chemical process, according to which the waste tires are broken up, an appropriate percentage of catalyst is added, and then the waste tires are pyrolyzed at an appropriate temperature and an appropriate pressure to produce gaseous products, blended oils, carbon black, residuals and the like. The latter pyrolysis method provides substantial economical benefits. As a result, current research focuses on this pyrolysis method.
- According to the existing technologies, pyrolysis products of waste tires include combustible gases, blended oils, carbon black and the like. Among these pyrolysis products, combustible gases may be used to provide the heat necessary for the pyrolysis of the waste tires; the blended oils may be subjected to a further processing through, for example, a fractionating process to separate the by-products of high economic values, such as light oil, gasoline, kerosene, diesel oil and heavy oil. As for the carbon black, due to its complex composition and very instable quality thereof, it still cannot be used for industrial purposes and even causes problems associated with subsequent disposal.
- However, in industrial applications, carbon black may be the best and most commonly used black pigment because of its good heat resistance, chemical resistance and light fastness as well as its good tinting strength and hiding power. At present, carbon black is mostly produced through an additional process, for example, by combusting or pyrolyzing carbonaceous raw materials such as natural gases or crude oils. However, this requires additional costs for the production of the carbon black, consumes valuable petrochemical materials and exacerbates the problems of environmental pollution and carbon dioxide emission. During times of environment protection awareness, reforming the carbon blacks of poor quality obtained from pyrolysis of the waste tires into usable carbon blacks of great commercial values will not only solve the disposal problem of waste carbon blacks, but also prevent damage to the environment caused by carbon black production. Therefore, it is highly desirable in the art to provide a pyrolysis system, for use in waste tire pyrolysis for example, that features stable operation, stable and acceptable product quality and can prevent the generation of unusable pyrolysis products that would cause pollution to the environment.
- In view of this, the present invention provides a pyrolysis system capable of operating continuously that, when used for pyrolysis of waste tires, can produce carbon black with a very low sulfur content and a great economic value for use in industrial purposes.
- An objective of this invention is to provide a continuous pyrolysis system, comprising: a reactor having a charge port, a discharge port and a first gas outlet and a first axial transporting structure installed therein; a heat source generator for supplying heat necessary for carrying out a pyrolysis reaction in the reactor; a solid product reformer for performing a reforming process on the solid product of the pyrolysis reaction, having a first solid product inlet, a first solid product outlet and a second gas outlet, and a second axial transporting structure installed therein, wherein the first solid product inlet communicates with the discharge port of the reactor; and a gas barrier component for preventing the gas product of the pyrolysis reaction from entering the solid product reformer and transporting the solid product of the pyrolysis reaction into the solid product reformer, with the gas barrier component being installed in a channel communicating the first solid product inlet and the discharge port of the reactor.
- Another objective of this invention is to provide a continuous pyrolysis method that uses the continuous pyrolysis system described above.
- The detailed technology and preferred embodiments implemented for the subject invention are described in the following paragraphs accompanying the appended drawings for people skilled in this field to well appreciate the features of the claimed invention.

FIG. 1 is an embodiment of a continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention; -
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view of a reactor in an embodiment of the continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention; -
FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view of a solid product reformer in an embodiment of the continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention; and -
FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of a solid product cooler in an embodiment of the continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention. - Unless otherwise stated, “a,” “an,” “the” and the like terms used in this specification (especially in the Claims) shall be interpreted to include both a singular and a plural form.
- Herein below, some embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail; however, instead of being limited to what is described herein, the present invention may also be applied to different embodiments without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Furthermore, for purposes of clarity, the dimensions of the individual elements or regions may be exaggerated in the attached drawings rather than being drawn to scale.
- The continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention comprises a reactor, a heat source generator, a solid product reformer and a gas barrier component.
- The reactor has a charge port, a discharge port, a first gas outlet, and a first axial transporting structure installed therein. The reactor is preferably a “tubular reactor,” although it is not merely limited thereto. The term “tubular reactor” generally refers to any appropriate reactor in which the space for containing materials is shaped like a tube. Thus, while materials charged into the reactor through the charge port are undergoing the reaction inside the reactor, the materials are moved forward gradually by the first axial transporting structure along the axial direction of the reactor and finally discharged out of the reactor through the discharge port. In some embodiments of the present invention, the first axial transporting structure has a central shaft and a plurality of auger blades. Any appropriate drive device (e.g., an electric motor) may be used to drive the first axial transporting structure, and depending on the practical needs (e.g., species, composition and size of the material to be pyrolyzed), the rotational speed of the auger blades of the first axial transporting structure may be adjusted to control the dwell time of the materials to be pyrolyzed within the reactor.
- Optionally, the reactor may include a plurality of cascaded sub-reactors. The first axial transporting structure is correspondingly comprised of a plurality of axial transporting sub-structures that are installed in the cascaded sub-reactors respectively. Each of the axial transporting sub-structures has a central shaft and a plurality of auger blades, and is driven by an appropriate drive device such as an electric motor. For example, each of the sub-reactors may have the discharge port thereof communicate with the charge port of the downstream sub-reactor, and the last sub-reactor may have the discharge port thereof communicate with the first solid product inlet of the solid product reformer to complete the cascade of sub-reactors so that the materials to be pyrolyzed can be transported between the sub-reactors. As used herein, the term “communicate” may refer to any appropriate forms; for example, two sub-reactors may communicate with each other through a pipeline, or the walls of two sub-reactors may make contact with each other and communicate through the openings in the contact areas. By using the plurality of sub-reactors and individual axial transporting structures, an excessive load that would have been experienced by the single axial transporting structure is prevented. Additionally, the sub-reactors may be arranged on top of each other to make full use of the space.
- The heat source generator is used to supply the heat necessary for carrying out a pyrolysis reaction in the reactor, and preferably also to supply the heat necessary for the solid product reformer. In an embodiment of the present invention, a combustion furnace is used as the heat source generator, which supplies heat in the form of high-temperature gases by combusting any appropriate fuel oils and/or combustible gases and pyro-oils recycled from the pyrolysis reaction. The heat source generator that uses combustible gases and pyro-oils recycled from the pyrolysis reaction may have less demands on the energy source and reduce the operation costs.
- It has been found that because the pyrolysis reaction may generate a variety of gaseous, liquid and/or solid products (e.g., carbon black), the solid products thus obtained tend to contain a certain content of gaseous or liquid impurities regardless of any improved pyrolysis reaction. Such impurities make it difficult to make use of the solid products, resulting in a degraded economic value of the solid products. For example, for processing waste tires, the solid products (most of which are carbon black) resulting from the pyrolysis usually contain complex compositions of the pyro-oils and pyro-gases, which make it difficult to use for commercial purposes (e.g., for use as pigments) and indirectly cause pollution to the environment. In view of this, the continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention is particularly designed to comprise a solid product reformer and a gas barrier component to effectively improve the quality of the products, especially the solid products, of the pyrolysis reaction, thereby increasing the market value of the products.
- The solid product reformer has a first solid product inlet, a first solid product outlet, a second gas outlet, and a second axial transporting structure installed therein. The first solid product inlet communicates with the discharge port of the reactor. The reactor is preferably a “tubular reactor”, although it is not merely limited thereto. Thus, while solid products charged into the solid product reformer through the first solid product inlet are being reformed inside the solid product reformer, the solid products are moved forward gradually by the second axial transporting structure along the axial direction of the solid product reformer and finally discharged out of the solid product reformer through the first solid product outlet. Similar to the first axial transporting structure, in some embodiments of the present invention, the second axial transporting structure also has a central shaft and a plurality of auger blades. Any appropriate drive unit (e.g., an electric motor) may be used to drive the second axial transporting structure, and depending on the practical needs (e.g., species, composition and size of the material to be pyrolyzed), the rotational speed of the auger blades of the second axial transporting structure may be adjusted to control the dwell time of the solid products in the solid product reformer.
- The solid product reformer of the present invention is used in conjunction with a gas barrier component. The gas barrier component is installed in a channel communicating with the first solid product inlet and the discharge port of the reactor and is used to prevent the gas products of the pyrolysis reaction from entering the solid product reformer. There is no particular limitation on the gas barrier component that can be used in the present invention, and it may be any conventional component capable of delivering a gas barrier effect; for example, in an embodiment of the present invention, a gastight valve is used as the gas barrier component.
- Similar to the combination of the reactor and the first axial transporting structure, the solid product reformer may also comprise a plurality of sub-reformers, and correspondingly, the second axial transporting structure may be comprised of a plurality of second axial transporting sub-structures that are installed in each of the sub-reformers respectively.
- Optionally, the continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention further comprises a solid product processing device and/or a gas product processing device disposed at the downstream of the system for further processing of the solid products and/or gas products that have been reformed.
- The solid product processing device communicates with the first solid product outlet. There is no particular limitation on the solid product processing device that can be used in the present invention, and it may optionally comprises various appropriate physically/chemically separating devices for further processing of the solid products of the pyrolysis reaction, such as a screening device (e.g., a screen grader or a magnetic separator), a grinding device (e.g., a grinding machine), a packaging device or the like. In one embodiment of the present invention, to prevent the combustion of high-temperature solid products of the pyrolysis reaction in subsequent processing and transporting processes, the solid product processing device comprises a solid product cooler for cooling the high-temperature reformed solid products from the solid product reformer. The solid product cooler has a second solid product inlet, a second solid product outlet, and a third axial transporting structure installed therein. The second solid product inlet communicates with the first solid product outlet, while the third axial transporting structure has substantially the same functionality and structure as those of the first and the second axial transporting structures. Also, similar to the combination of the reactor and the first axial transporting structure, the solid product cooler and the third axial transporting structure may also be comprised of a plurality of sub-coolers and sub-structures respectively.
- The gas product processing device communicates with the first gas outlet and the second gas outlet. There is no particular limitation on the gas product processing device that can be used in the present invention, and generally, it may optionally comprise various condensing devices or separating devices. In some embodiments of the present invention, the gas product processing device comprises a first condenser a pyro-oil cooler and an oil-mud separator communicating with the first condenser. The first condenser has a first gas inlet, a third gas inlet and a washing-oil inlet, and communicates with the first gas outlet of the reactor through the first gas inlet; the oil-mud separator comprises a first pyro-oil outlet and a mud-discharging opening; and the pyro-oil cooler has a first pyro-oil inlet and a second pyro-oil outlet, and communicates with the first pyro-oil outlet of the oil-mud separator through the first pyro-oil inlet. The second cooler should preferably be disposed at the downstream of the first cooler to provide a better cooling and separating effect.
- The continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention may be used for the pyrolysis of various materials, for example, waste tires, waste plastics, waste wood, or agricultural biowaste, and is preferably used for the processing of waste tires.
- For better understanding of the present invention, an embodiment of the continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention, which may be used for processing waste tires, will be illustrated hereinafter with reference to the attached drawings. In the attached drawings, the dimensions of the individual components are only provided for purposes of illustration, but do not represent the actual dimensional scale.

In this embodiment, thereactor 11 comprises two sub-reactors disposed on top of each other, namely, afirst sub-reactor 111 and a second sub-reactor 113 which communicate with each other through a communicatingport 116. An axial transporting structure is installed in thereactor 11. In this embodiment, the axial transporting structure comprises two first axial transportingsub-structures 115 installed in thefirst sub-reactor 111 and the second sub-reactor 113 respectively, and each of the first axial transportingsub-structures 115 is coupled to acorresponding drive device 117. Each of the first axial transportingsub-structures 115 comprises a central shaft and a plurality of auger blades. Additionally, thereactor 11 is enclosed by a firsthot air chamber 131. The firsthot air chamber 131 comprises a first hot air inlet P04 adapted to receive hot air from thecombustion furnace 13 and a first hot air outlet P05 adapted to vent the hot air out of the firsthot air chamber 131. As shown inFIG. 1 , thecombustion furnace 13 comprises a fuel port P06 for receiving fuels and an air outlet P07 for outputting the hot air and communicating with the first hot air inlet P04. - Materials to be pyrolyzed are fed into the

Thefirst sub-reactor 111 and the second sub-reactor 113 are disposed on top of each other, so once the waste tires undergoing the pyrolysis reaction move forward to thecommunication port 116, the waste tires will drop down into thesecond sub-reactor 113 and then, through the rotation of the first axial transportingsub-structure 115 of thesecond sub-reactor 113, continue to move forward in the second sub-reactor 113 for further pyrolysis. The solid products of the pyrolysis will be discharged through the discharge port P02, while the gas products of the pyrolysis will be discharged through the first gas outlet P03. -
FIG. 3 illustrates a cross-sectional view of thesolid product reformer 15. Thesolid product reformer 15 comprises a first solid product inlet P08, a first solid product outlet P09 and a second gas outlet P10. A secondaxial transporting structure 151 is installed in thesolid product reformer 15. Similar to thereactor 11, thesolid product reformer 15 may also comprise a plurality of solid product sub-reformers, and correspondingly, the secondaxial transporting structure 151 may be comprised of a plurality of second axial transporting sub-structures that are installed in each of the sub-reformers respectively. For convenience, descriptions are made herein with reference to a simple case in which thesolid product reformer 15 is not provided with sub-reformers and second axial transporting sub-structures as shown inFIG. 3 . - In
FIG. 3 , the secondaxial transporting structure 151 is coupled to adrive device 153. The secondaxial transporting structure 151 comprises a central shaft and a plurality of auger blades. Thesolid product reformer 15 is enclosed by a secondhot air chamber 133. The secondhot air chamber 133 comprises a second hot air inlet P11 and a second hot air outlet P12. The second hot air inlet P11 communicates with the first hot air outlet P05 to receive hot air from the firsthot air chamber 13 to maintain thesolid product reformer 15 at a desired temperature. The hot air is then vented through the second hot air outlet P12. The first solid product inlet P08 communicates with the discharge port P02, and in a channel communicating with the first solid product inlet P08 and the discharge port P02, agastight valve 17 is disposed to prevent entry of the gas products of the pyrolysis reaction into thesolid product reformer 15. The solid products of the pyrolysis reaction are discharged from the discharge port P02, pass through thegastight valve 17, and are then fed through the first solid product inlet P08 into thesolid product reformer 15 to be reformed therein, thereby resulting in solid products of great economic value with stable compositions. - With reference to
FIGS. 1 and 4 ,FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of asolid product cooler 41 in the solid product processing device. Thesolid product cooler 41, which is adapted to cool the reformed high-temperature solid products, comprises a second solid product inlet P13, a second solid product outlet P14 and a thirdaxial transporting structure 411 installed in the solid product cooler. - Similar to the
reactor 11, thesolid product cooler 41 may also comprise a plurality of solid product sub-coolers, and correspondingly, the thirdaxial transporting structure 411 may be comprised of a plurality of third axial transporting sub-structures that are installed in each of the sub-coolers respectively. For convenience, descriptions are made herein with reference to a simple case in which thesolid product cooler 41 is not provided with sub-coolers and third axial transporting sub-structures as shown inFIG. 4 . - In
FIG. 4 , the thirdaxial transporting structure 411 has a central shaft and a plurality of auger blades, and is coupled to adrive device 413. The thirdaxial transporting structure 411 has substantially the same functionality as that of the first axial transportingsub-structure 115. The second solid product inlet P13 communicates with the first solid product outlet P09. Any appropriate means may be adopted to achieve a cooling effect, and in this embodiment, acooling chamber 415 enclosing thesolid product cooler 41 is used. The coolingchamber 415 comprises a cooling water inlet P15 and a cooling water outlet P16. By introducing cooling water through the cooling water inlet P15 into thecooling chamber 415, a cooling effect is achieved, and then the cooling water drains away through the cooling water outlet P16. - After being reformed, the high-temperature solid products are fed through the second solid product inlet P13 into the
solid product cooler 41 to be cooled therein, and by means of the thirdaxial transporting structure 411, are moved forward in thesolid product cooler 41 to obtain cooled reformed solid products at the second solid product outlet P14. Then, the cooled reformed solid products are transported to the screening device 43 to be screened therein and also to the grindingdevice 45 to be ground therein, thereby obtaining the desired products. - Referring back to
FIG. 1 , thefirst condenser 51 has a first gas inlet P17, a third gas inlet P18 and a washing-oil inlet P19, and communicates with the first gas outlet P03 of thereactor 11 through the first gas inlet P17; the oil-mud separator 53 has a first pyro-oil outlet P20 and a mud-discharging opening P21, and substantially communicates with thefirst condenser 51; and the pyro-oil cooler 55 has a first pyro-oil inlet P22 and a second pyro-oil outlet P23, and communicates with the first pyro-oil outlet P20 of the oil-mud separator 53 through the first pyro-oil inlet P22. Thesecond condenser 57 has a third gas inlet P24 communicating with the third gas outlet P18 and a fourth gas outlet P25. - After being fed into the
first condenser 51 through the first gas inlet P17, the gas products of the pyrolysis reaction are washed by oils introduced through the washing-oil inlet P19 for purposes of cooling. As a result, condensable components (e.g., pyrolyzed oils) in the gas products are condensed into liquid and separated from incondensable components. The incondensable gas components are introduced out of the third gas outlet P18 and fed through the third gas inlet P24 into thesecond condenser 57 for further condensing. Thus, oils and gases uncondensed in thefirst condenser 51 are condensed to a lower temperature so that pyro-oils with a low flashing point can be collected and optionally introduced into thecombustion furnace 13 for use as fuels or stored. On the other hand, the resulting gas may be recycled or used as a fuel for thecombustion furnace 13. The liquid components condensed in thefirst condenser 51 are then introduced into the oil-mud separator 53 disposed beneath and communicating with thefirst condenser 51 for separation of mud impurities. The mud impurities are periodically discharged out of the mud-discharging opening P21 to, for example, a mud processing device for further processing. The resulting pyro-oil is introduced from the first pyro-oil outlet P20 through the first pyro-oil outlet P22 into the pyro-oil cooler 55 to be further cooled therein. A portion of the cooled pyro-oil is introduced by, for example, a pump from the washing-oil inlet P19 into thefirst condenser 51 for use as a washing oil, and the remaining portion of the pyro-oil may be optionally stored in an oil storage tank, used as a fuel of thecombustion furnace 13, or subjected to further processing to produce oil products of a greater economic value. - The present invention further provides a continuous pyrolysis method, which adopts the continuous pyrolysis system of the present invention. In the continuous pyrolysis method, optionally, a solid product processing procedure may be performed on the solid products of the pyrolysis reaction, or a gas product processing procedure may be performed on the gas products of the pyrolysis reaction. Hereinafter, taking the processing of waste tires as an example, the continuous pyrolysis method will be described with reference to the
continuous pyrolysis system 1 described above. - Optionally, prior to the pyrolysis process, a pre-processing device such as a crusher or a cutting machine is used to pre-process the waste tires into appropriate sizes (e.g., processed into particle sizes ranging from about 5 cm to about 7 cm). Then, the waste tire granules of appropriate sizes are fed into the
reaction chamber 11 through the charge opening P01 at a certain feeding rate. - The
reactor 11 is kept at a pyrolysis temperature of about 350° C. to 550° C., and preferably of about 350° C. to 450° C. In this embodiment, heat necessary for thereactor 11 and thesolid product reformer 15 is supplied by thecombustion furnace 13. At the initial stage of operation, the diesel or a fuel oil is used as a fuel of thecombustion furnace 13; however, once the pyrolysis reaction starts, combustible gases (and optionally pyro-oils) resulting from the pyrolysis reaction may be used as fuels to reduce the cost. Here, a flow rate of the fuel accounts for about 15 wt % to about 20 wt % of the charging rate. The high-temperature gas generated by thecombustion furnace 13 is introduced, by means of windmill drafting for example, into thefirst combustion chamber 131 through the first hot air inlet P04 to keep a temperature necessary for the pyrolysis reaction in thereactor 11, and then introduced from the first hot air outlet P05 through the second hot air inlet P11 into thesecond combustion chamber 133 to keep a temperature necessary for the reforming process in thesolid product reformer 15. - After being introduced into the
reactor 11, the waste tire granules are moved forward in thereactor 11 by the firstaxial transporting structure 115 to be fully pyrolyzed therein. The rotational speed of the first axial transportingsub-structure 115 is controlled by thedrive device 117 to control the dwell time of the materials in thereactor 11. In some embodiments of the present invention, the materials are allowed to dwell in thereactor 11 for about 40 min to 70 min in total to ensure a good pyrolysis effect. - In the
reactor 11, once the materials are transported to the tail end of thefirst sub-reactor 111, the remaining carbon black mixture and the un-pyrolyzed waste tire granules will drop down into the second sub-reactor 113 through the communicatingopening 116 for further pyrolysis. Here, the materials pass through the second sub-reactor 113 in just the same way as that in thefirst sub-reactor 113. During the pyrolysis reaction, the oil-gas products (i.e., a oil-gas mixture) resulting from the pyrolysis reaction are transported through the first gas outlet P03 to the gas product processing device to undergo a gas product processing procedure therein, while the solid products are transported through the discharge port P02 to thesolid product reformer 15 to undergo a reforming process therein. The disposition of thegastight valve 17 is necessary because it can prevent entry of the gas products of the pyrolysis reaction into thesolid product reformer 15, to ensure that substantially no undesired gaseous impurity is contained in thesolid product reformer 15. - The
solid product reformer 15 operates at a temperature of about 250° C. to about 400° C., and preferably about 250° C. to about 350° C. This can reduce the content of impurities such as organic volatiles in the solid products, thereby improving the quality of the resulting solid products (primarily carbon black). The solid products of the pyrolysis reaction are introduced through the first solid product inlet P08 into thesolid product reformer 15 and then, by means of the secondaxial transporting structure 151, are moved forward in thesolid product reformer 15 while undergoing the reforming process. The rotational speed of the secondaxial transporting structure 151 is controlled by thedrive device 153 to control the dwell time of the materials in thesolid product reformer 15. In some embodiments of the present invention, the materials are allowed to dwell in thesolid product reformer 15 for about 30 min to 60 min in total to ensure a good reforming effect. - The reformed high-temperature solid products are introduced out of the first solid product outlet P09 into the
solid product cooler 41 through the second solid product inlet P03 and then, by means of the thirdaxial transporting structure 411, are moved forward in thesolid product cooler 41 while being cooled therein. Here, the rotational speed of the thirdaxial transporting structure 411 is controlled by thedrive device 413 to ensure that the solid products dwell in thesolid product cooler 41 for a period of time sufficient to achieve the cooling effect. In some embodiments of the present invention, the materials dwell in thesolid product cooler 41 for about 10 min to about 20 min in total, and the solid products are cooled to a temperature of about 40° C. to about 60° C. - The cooled carbon black is introduced out of the second solid product outlet P14, and then fed into the screening device 43 disposed at the downstream of the
solid product cooler 41 to remove the steel wires and screen out the impurities of large particle sizes. Subsequently, the screened solid products, primarily carbon black, are introduced into the grindingdevice 45 disposed at the downstream where they are ground into particle sizes complying with the market demand. Thus, products of great economic values that can be used for industrial purposes are obtained. - The gas products of the pyrolysis reaction are introduced through the first gas inlet P17 into the
first condenser 51, and are washed in thefirst condenser 51 by a washing oil introduced through the washing-oil inlet P19 to be cooled down to a temperature of about 90° C. to about 100° C. and to remove the entrained carbon black particulates. The cooling temperature of the gas products may be controlled by regulating the flow rate and temperature of the washing oil. Then, the pyro-oil that has been condensed into liquid and the carbon black flow directly into the oil-mud separator 53 disposed beneath thefirst condenser 51 where the mud is separated through sedimentation. The separated mud is periodically discharged out of the mud-discharging opening P2 and, optionally, is fed into thereactor 11 through the charge port P01 anew for further pyrolysis or introduced directly into, for example, a mud treatment tank for disposal. On the other hand, the pyro-oil separated through sedimentation is introduced from the first pyro-oil outlet P20 into the pyro-oil cooler 55 through the first pyro-oil inlet P22 to be further cooled to a temperature of about 35° C. to about 50° C., and is finally discharged through the second pyro-oil outlet P23. A portion of the resulting pyro-oil is introduced from the washing-oil inlet P19 into thefirst condenser 51 for use as a washing oil, and the remaining portion of the pyro-oil may be optionally stored in an oil storage tank, used as a fuel of thecombustion furnace 13, or subjected to further processing to produce oil products of a greater economic value. The cooled but uncondensed gas components are introduced out of the third gas outlet P18 and fed through the third gas inlet P24 into thesecond condenser 57 for further condensing. Thus, oils and gases uncondensed in thefirst condenser 51 are condensed to a lower temperature so that pyro-oils with a lower flashing point can be collected. On the other hand, pyro-gases that are still uncondensed are introduced into thecombustion furnace 13 for use as fuels. - Now, the present invention will be further illustrated with reference to the following examples.
- Particle size of waste tire particulates: about 3 cm to about 7 cm
Feeding rate: about 1000 kg/hour - Temperature: about 450° C.
- Retention time: about 60 min
- Solid product reformer:
- Temperature: about 320° C.
- Retention time: about 50 min
- Solid product cooler:
