Method of production of soot from rubber waste

摘要

Scrap rubber is decomposed in a reactor. The decomposition products are separated into gaseous products and carbon residue. The gaseous products are heated to 1200-1300° C. to decomposition primarily resins and asphaltenes, oil is isolated, atomized to a droplet size of 0.2-2.0 mm, mixed in a ratio of 1:(0.05-3.0) with the carbon residue, which is ground to 0.1-1.0 mm, and thermally decomposed into carbon black with an atomic hydrogen-to-carbon ratio (H:C) in the range of 0.02-0.07 and gases. Ash and volatile compounds are removed from the carbon residue. Carbon black is separated from the ash. The heat given off during combustion of part of the oil is spent on the formation of carbon black, the flash heating of the carbon residue and the removal of volatile substances therefrom, said volatile substances being subjected to intensive heating in the absence of oxygen using heated carbon black particles and oil combustion products.

1. A method of producing soot from scrap rubber, the method comprising:
thermally decomposing the scrap rubber into carbon residue and gaseous components; heating the gaseous components to 1200-1300° C.; separating the gaseous components into oils and gaseous waste; atomizing the oils to a diameter range in 0.2-2.0 mm oil droplets; grinding the carbon residue to a diameter range in 0.1-1.0 mm particles; thermally decomposing a 1:(0.05-3), by weight, mixture of the oil droplets and the particles into soot, ashes and by-product gases; separating the soot from the ashes using an electromagnetic separation process; and burning the by-product gases and the gaseous waste to produce thermal energy.
