PRODUCTION OF SYNTHETIC GAS FROM ORGANIC WASTE

摘要

A pyrolysis device has a pyrolyzer (retort) and a thermal oxidizer, each with its own burner, but coupled so that the burner of the pyrolyzer can be down-regulated as heat from the thermal oxidizer is used to hear the pyrolyzer. One or more automatic controllers preferably adjust a burn rate of the extrinsic gas by the first burner as a function of a rate at which heat is transferred from the thermal oxidizer to the pyrolyzer. In preferred embodiments, the burn rate of the extrinsic gas can be adjusted to = 50%, = 30% or even lower relative to a base rate that would be required to pyrolyze the waste without the heat thermal oxidizer.
