The present invention relates to a technique for treating a raw material, such as combustible waste, and more particularly to combustion, and pyrolysis and gasification treatment techniques that does not emit carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. A treatment apparatus includes a fluidized-bed furnace having a pyrolysis chamber and a combustion chamber therein, the pyrolysis chamber and the combustion chamber are separated by a partition wall, an electrolysis device configured to electrolyze water to generate hydrogen and oxygen, a methanation reactor configured to produce methane from carbon dioxide discharged from the combustion chamber and the hydrogen, a first fluidizing-gas supply line configured to supply a first fluidizing gas to the pyrolysis chamber, and a second fluidizing-gas supply line configured to introduce a second fluidizing gas to the combustion chamber, the second fluidizing gas including the oxygen and a part of the carbon dioxide.

Described herein are pyrolysis systems and pyrolysis processes for achieving a lighter yield slate than provided in conventional pyrolysis systems. Aspects include: recycling a gaseous pyrolysis product into the pyrolysis reactor to enhance the mixing of the pyrolysis system reactants; installing a bottoms liquid recycle stream to better mix the pyrolysis system reactants; and/or recycling at least a portion of a heavy fraction of the gaseous pyrolysis reactor effluent from a condenser system into the pyrolysis reactor liquid. These improvements can enhance the economic viability of plastic wastes to liquid and gaseous hydrocarbon products which are used for making circular chemical and polymer products.

A double fluidized bed reactor system including a staircase-type helical blade is proposed. The system includes a bubbling fluidized bed gasification furnace for receiving fuel (for example, combustible waste and biomass) and steam, forming a bubbling fluidized bed through a flow of flow medium therein, and gasifying the fuel, thereby generating a resultant gas, and a high-speed fluidized bed combustion furnace for receiving char of the resultant gas and the flow medium from the bubbling fluidized bed gasification furnace, additionally receiving air, combusting the char so as to heat the flow medium, and transferring the heated flow medium back to the bubbling fluidized bed gasification furnace.
