Quenching pyrolysis reactor effluent streams

摘要

A continuous process recovers values from a solid carbonaceous material by directly contacting a stream containing volatilized hydrocarbons resulting from the pyrolysis of the solid carbonaceous material with incoming feed carbonaceous material to quench the volatilized hydrocarbons, then pyrolyzing the carbonaceous material to yield a product stream containing volatilized hydrocarbons and a particulate residue.
