摘要： The system is based on a recirculating Carbon Flow Loop, within which toxins in municipal waste or other feedstock are neutralized in a plasma reactor, by using an electric arc in ionized gas to generate ultra high temperatures. This breaks down substances into their basic molecules, and transforms the feedstock into syngas (which is comprised predominantly of hydrogen and carbon monoxide). This can be processed by a water shift reactor, an engine driven electric generator or another exothermic device where carbon monoxide is transformed into carbon dioxide. This continues flowing in the carbon loop to an Algae Bioreactor. Here photosynthesis of the algae transforms the carbon dioxide to become part of an oil rich carbohydrate. This can either continue to the next stage as feedstock and recirculate again around the Carbon Loop and/or exit, and be used to manufacture biofuel or other substances.

摘要： Methods and systems for processing animal waste are disclosed. Effluent, including waste solids and water, is received. The effluent is at least partly separated into solids and water. The separated water is processed using a dissolved air flotation device and/or a reverse osmosis system to clarify the separated water. The separated solids are transferred to a gasifier, which processed the separated solids to form a least a first gas.

摘要： The high intracellular water content contained within the cell walls of the bacterial cells of a dewatered biosludge is reduced by removing the intracellular water in a denaturing operation. This operation comprises heating the biosludge at a temperature sufficient to weaken the bacterial cell walls. The weakened cell walls are then exposed to a reduced pressure sufficient to form vapor within the cell and to thus rupture the weakened cell walls and thereby release the intracellular water in the form of a hot aqueous vapor and/or released intracellular water. The water-reduced concentrated biosludge can then serve as a fuel source in a partial oxidation reaction for the production of synthesis gas.

摘要： This invention relates to a novel pumpable sewage sludge fuel and process for burning it. An aqueous slurry of sewage sludge is dewatered and dried to a solids content in the range of about 50 to 99 wt. % in a drying zone in the absence of free-oxygen containing gas but while in contact with a gaseous material selected from the group consisting of N.sub.2, CO.sub.2, H.sub.2, CO, and mixtures thereof. The dried sewage sludge is mixed with a supplementary fuel from the group consisting of solid carbonaceous fuel, liquid hydrocarbonaceous fuel, mixtures thereof, and optionally with water to produce a pumpable slurry fuel feedstream having a solids content in the range of about 50 to 65 wt. % and a higher heating value of at least about 6,000 Btu/lb. The slurry fuel feedstream may be burned in a partial oxidation gasifier, furnace, boiler, or incinerator.

摘要： A process for the gasification of sewage sludge or other carbon-containing waste materials in a gasifier (1) is described. A solid fuel and oxygen-containing gas are also fed into said gasifier. The residues formed during gasification collect at the bottom of the gasifier in the form of molten slag. Gasification takes place in a fluidized bed (9) formed above the slag bath and constituted by the dried sewage sludge or waste materials, the solid fuel, the oxygen-containing gas and the gasification gas. The gas produced in the gasifier can be used for power generation or as a reducing gas for iron ore. Sponge iron can simultaneously be melted in the gasifier and reduced to pig iron.

摘要： Systems and processes provide for a thermal process to transform sludge (and a variety of other natural waste materials) into electricity. Dewatered sludge and other materials containing a high amount of latent energy are dried into a powdered biofuel using a drying gas produced in the system. The drying gas is recirculated and is heated by the biofuel produced in the system, waste heat (from turbines or internal combustion engines), gas (including natural gas or digester gas) and/or oil. The biofuel is combusted in a boiler system that utilizes a burner operable to burn biofuel and produce heat utilized in a series of heat exchangers that heat the recirculating drying air and steam that powers the turbines for electricity production.

摘要： Apparatus and associated methods relate to drying a wet coated seed material stream comprising an incoming wet granular biosolids stream mixed with a controlled size dried seed material recycling stream to produce a moist air and pellet stream, separating an uncontrolled size dried pellet stream from the moist air and pellet stream, diverting a recycle portion of the uncontrolled size dried pellet stream to be recycled, diverting the remainder of the uncontrolled size dried pellet stream to an outlet, resizing oversized pellets from the recycle portion of the uncontrolled size dried pellet stream to produce the controlled size dried seed material recycling stream, and mixing the controlled size dried seed material recycling stream with the incoming wet granular biosolids stream to produce the wet coated seed material stream. Oversized pellets may be selected using a screen. The oversized pellets may be resized using a crusher inline with the recycle stream.

摘要： Exemplary apparatus or method implementations for a universal feeder system configured with a transfer screw feeder within a multi-section clamshell pipe permitting access to the feed screw and pipe interior for inspection, maintenance and/or cleaning during production, without disassembly or screw removal. The clamshell screw feeder pipe provides access to the screw by opening or removing the multi-section top portion of the clamshell pipe. The top pipe section is bolted and or hinges to the bottom portion of the clamshell pipe. The number of segmented multiple clamshell top sections depends on the length of the screw. One or more clamshell top sections may be configured with an inspection port. The universal feeder system configured with a transfer screw feeder within a multi-section clamshell pipe transfers feedstock feed from one or more feed vessels to one or more reactor vessel.
