A rotary pyrolysis reactor type apparatus and a method of operating such a reactor configured for thermally decomposing by-products and waste

摘要

The invention relates to apparatus in the form of a rotary thermolysis reactor and a method for operating the reactor for the thermal decomposition of by-products and waste. The reactor includes a tubular outer jacket with covers closing its ends, an interior chamber, a shaft mounted centrally in the covers, feed devices and discharge devices which are placed at the start and the end of the shaft, respectively, inside an interior chamber, wherein helical coil runners are fixed to the shaft and gasification agents are applied to the material being thermolyzed, via gasification shafts in the lower section of the tubular outer jacket.
