SYSTEM FOR TREATING ORGANIC MATERIALS TO REDUCE THEM TO INORGANIC COMPONENTS AND METHODS FOR TREATING ORGANIC MATERIALS TO REDUCE THEM TO INORGANIC COMPONENTS

摘要

A system for treating energy-containing organic materials, including organic waste and sewage, as well as gasses with organic compounds is used to reduce the organic materials to inorganic compounds and/or components and release the thermal energy contained in them. Depending on the level of hydration of energy­-containing organic materials (1), the system may be fitted with mechanical devices (2) for water removal. The material is then transferred to ante-chambers (14,24) and the rate of delivery is regulated by gate valves (8,9). The anti­-chambers (14,24) provide necessary conditions for complete de-gasification and gasification of material at low-oxygen atmosphere. The desiccated material is next directed into reaction chambers (16,26) where they are completely desgasified and gasified, and the temperature therein is maintained below 600°C and preferably at around 500°C. Gasses (33) from the desiccation process are directed through control valves (51,52) either directly or via a high-­temperature filter to a catalytic reactor, which is a unit of the heat-producing arrangement.
