apparatus and process for the thermochemical decomposition cycle of a continuous biomass

摘要

Apparatus for the continuous-cycle thermo-chemical decomposition of a bio-mass, which comprises a reaction chamber (37) in which a process of pyrolysis or gasification is suitable to be produced, and means to feed air (A). The apparatus also comprises a first pipe (35) passing through the reaction chamber (37) and through which the bio-mass is able to be conveyed toward the reaction chamber (37) by means of feed means (27, 33); a second pipe (45), substantially perpendicular to the first pipe, and communicating with the reaction chamber (37); and containing means (53) which define an interstice (57) both around the reaction chamber (37) and also around at least a part of the second pipe (45). First apertures (49) are also provided to put the reaction chamber (37) in communication with the interstice (57), and second apertures (51) to put the inside of the second pipe (45) in communication with the interstice (57).
