IMPIANTO MODULARE PER LA CONDUZIONE DI PROCEDIMENTI DI CONVERSIONE DI MATRICI CARBONIOSE

摘要

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).
