biomechanical hydrolysierreaktor for conversion of biomass into new industrial links

摘要

A device for processing materials by hydrolysis, sterilisation and dehydration, particularly a reactor device for converting organic plant and/or animal materials into novel industrially reusable products, is disclosed. The device comprises at least an outer casing (41) and an inner casing (42), a kneading rotor (43) driven by a motor (430), a pipe for feeding material into the inner casing (42), a gas discharge pipe (465) and at least one gas injection pipe (410, 800), as well as a first heat source comprising a heating device (450) and a piping system (415, 416, 417, 424, 419, 420) for heating the inner casing by exposing the walls thereof to a flow of gas or heat-transfer fluid at a temperature controlled by the heating device (450), a second heat source consisting of a heat-transfer fluid flowing right around the inside of the rotor (43), and a third heat source consisting of a heated air or gas flow injected into the inner casing (42) via an inlet (410) in the upper portion of said casing.
