    Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus of processing material having an organic content. The method comprises heating a batch of the material (“E”) in a batch processing apparatus (16) having a reduced oxygen atmosphere to gasify at least some of the organic content to produce syngas, The temperature of the syngas is then elevated and maintained at the elevated temperature in a thermal treatment: apparatus (18) for a residence time sufficient to thermally break down any long chain hydrocarbons or volatile organic compounds therein. The calorific value of the syngas produced is monitored by sensors (26) and, when the calorific value of the syngas is below a predefined threshold, the syngas having a low calorific value is diverted to a burner of a boiler (22) to produce steam to drive a steam turbine (36) to produce electricity (“H”). When the calorific value: of the syngas exceeds the predefined threshold syngas having a high calorific value is diverted to a gas engine (40) to produce electricity (F”).

    Abstract: Break down of waste materials such as animal parts is carried out by pyrolysis, gasification and combustion using a reactor vessel with a conical lower portion located within an exterior vessel. Feed material is deposited in continuous mode through an air lock at the top and falls by gravity alone into the lower cone portion. The cone geometry supports organic feedstocks, eliminating the requirement for grates or other combustion support systems. Organic material that may escape gasification and exit the bottom of the cone accumulates within the ash and carbon particle volume until burned. Carbon is sequestered from high energy feedstocks and is stored in a chamber below the gasification cone. This carbon supplements the energy output of lower energy feedstocks to maintain desired operating temperatures at all times.

    Abstract: The present invention provides a relatively small scale apparatus for gasifying solid fuel in which pyrolysis gas produced in a pyrolyzer by thermal-decomposition reaction of the solid fuel can be reformed to crude fuel gas. The apparatus comprises a solid fuel pyrolyzer 1 and a steam reformer 5, and thermally decomposes the solid fuel with a combustion reaction of a low oxygen density to produce the pyrolysis gas, and reforms the pyrolysis gas to produce the crude fuel gas. The pyrolyzer has an air inlet 18 positioned at a bottom part thereof and upwardly blowing combustion air into the pyrolyzer; a bed of pyrolyzer 30 located above the air inlet; and a pyrolysis gas exit positioned at an upper part of a body of the pyrolyzer and conducting the pyrolysis gas out of the pyrolyzer. The bed is made by a layered stack of many spherical heat-resistant materials 32 which form a number of narrow gaps for draft of the combustion air over the whole bed. The steam reformer has a reforming area 51 which produces the crude fuel gas by a steam reforming reaction of the pyrolysis gas, a pyrolysis gas inlet 55 which is in communication with the pyrolysis gas exit and which introduces the pyrolysis gas into the reforming area, a mixed gas inlet 54 introducing mixed gas of steam and air into the reforming area, a reformed gas effluent passage 70 for conducting reformed gas of the reforming area out of the reformer, and a permeable heat-barrier 60 positioned between the reforming area and the reformed gas effluent passage. The barrier is made by a layered stack of many spherical heat-resistant materials 62 which form a number of narrow gaps for draft of the pyrolysis gas and the mixed gas.

The drum defines an interior chamber having a longitudinal axis. The drum has a top (or side) opening formed in a first end portion thereof and a bottom opening formed in a second end portion thereof with the top (or side) opening being axially displaced from the bottom opening. The bucket has a side opening formed therein and is slidably movable relative to the drum along the longitudinal axis between the first and second end portions. The drive arrangement is mounted adjacent to the drum and connected to the bucket through one end of the drum. The drive arrangement is operable to move the bucket along an axial path relative to the longitudinal axis of the chamber between the first and second end portions of the drum to respective loading and dumping positions in the interior chamber in which the bucket is respectively aligned with the top (or side) and bottom openings of the drum. The drive arrangement also is operable to move the bucket along a circumferential path relative to the longitudinal axis of the chamber between receiving and discharging orientations such that at the loading position and receiving orientation the bucket communicates through its side opening with the inlet opening of the drum for receiving a batch of materials into the bucket, whereas at the dumping position and discharging orientation the bucket communicates through its side opening with the outlet opening of the drum for discharging the batch of materials from the bucket.
