摘要 |
This invention relates to systems that produce a thermochemical decomposition of organic material at elevated temperatures in the absence of oxygen or any halogen. Previously, creating these elevated temperatures required a substantial amount of energy produced from an unnatural source which was costly and inefficient. Embodiments of the present invention use an input well (16) configured to receive a slurry from a mixer (12). Piping (28) is attached to the input well (16) extends downward to a point (30) where the earth has an ambient temperature exceeds three hundred degrees Fahrenheit and can transform the slurry into the petroleum material. An extraction well (18) attached to the piping (28) is configured to extract the petroleum material from the piping (28). A separator (22) attached to the extraction well (18) separates the petroleum material into carbon char, water, oil and gas. |
