Abstract:
A disposal system for the processing of solid waste devices to recycle materials located within the devices and recover, reuse and recycle such materials. Such system may include a primary chamber and secondary chamber, attached preferably by use of one or more exhaust ducts, and a secondary chamber exhaust duct. The solid waste devices may include any type of waste, such as electronics waste, medical device waste, and the like.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a reactor for obtaining gas from biomass or organic residues and to a method for obtaining gas in said reactor in which the process is produced in a single rotatory horizontal reactor, wherein the stages occur in internal sections separated by helical spirals and, by analysing the synthesis gases by means of a gas chromatograph positioned at the output of the reactor, it is possible to vary the method parameters.
Abstract:
A modular plant, including at least one basic module is suitable for converting carbonaceous matrices (6) into fuel or useful products with no adverse environmental impact. The modular plant includes a rotary reactor (9) with a rotating drive mechanism (22) and a fixed stationary body (1). The inclination of the reactor (9) with rotating central longitudinal axis can vary from 0° to 45° with respect to horizontal. The reactor has a substantially cylindrical central body closed at a first entry end with a stationary fixed head (8), and at the exit end with a head fixed to the rotary reactor (9). The inlet end (8) contains one inlet (7) for the introduction of the carbonaceous matrix (6) into the rotary reactor and the other inlet (5) for introducing thermally conductive carriers (4). The rotary reactor (9) lacks internal components which provide rotation motion relative to the cylindrical body. The fixed housing body (1) enclosing the rotary reactor (9) seals the reactor and maintains the integrity of the reactor atmosphere. The housing has openings for the passage of the inlets and an exit for the converted carbonaceous matrix (17, 19) and the thermally conductive carrier (4).

Moreover described herein is a treatment system incorporating the aforesaid treatment device (2).
Abstract:
Provided is a regeneration rotary kiln capable of reducing the proportion of combustible gas in waste gas and capable of reducing cost for generating superheated steam. A regeneration rotary kiln (1) is characterized by including: a superheated steam generation unit (2) that generates superheated steam; a tube (3) capable of rotating about its axis and having a heating section (A) where, while the superheated steam is being supplied thereto, carbon fiber reinforced plastic (10) containing a matrix resin and carbon fibers is heated to generate combustible gas (10G) from the matrix resin to extract the carbon fibers (10S) from the carbon fiber reinforced plastic (10); a first combustion chamber (43a) that is placed outside the tube (3) and that burns the gas (10G) introduced from the heating section (A) to heat the heating section (A); and a second combustion chamber (43b) that burns the gas (10G) introduced from the first combustion chamber (43a) to supply heat for generating the superheated steam.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an apparatus and method for processing sludge. The apparatus comprises a processing drum (DR) provided with an inlet (IN) and an outlet (OUT) for sludge to be processed and for heat-accumulating material (HCM) in the form of particles that maintain a heat storing capacity of the sludge (SL). According to the invention, a return line (RL) for recirculating heat-accumulating material (HCM) to be removed from a sludge handling space (SHS) inside the processing drum (DR) back into the sludge handling space inside the processing drum (DR) for reuse is a return channel (RL) provided in connection with said processing drum (DR).
