A system for removing particle agglomerates from a particulate product stream. The system including a product stream inlet configured for receiving the particulate product stream, a diverter system configured for permitting a particulate product having a size less than or equal to a desired size to pass through the diverter system, a carrying fluid source connected to the diverter system configured to feed a carrying fluid into the diverter system to carry the particle agglomerate out of the diverter system during a discharge operation, a collector vessel connected to the diverter system, the collector vessel configured for receiving the particle agglomerate carried out by the carrying fluid from the diverter system during the discharge operation, and a particulate product outlet connected to the diverter system, the particulate product outlet configured for conveying the particulate product to a downstream process.

A system for carbonizing organic material is disclosed. A method for carbonizing organic material is also disclosed. Finally, a carbonization product comprising biocarbon formed in the system of the present disclosure or using the method of the present disclosure is further disclosed.

A reactor for coating particles includes a stationary vacuum chamber to hold a bed of particles to be coated, a chemical delivery system, and a paddle assembly. The paddle assembly includes a rotatable drive shaft and a first plurality of paddles and a second plurality of paddles that extend radially from the drive shaft. The spacing, cross-sections, and oblique angles of the paddles are such that orbiting of the paddles causes the first plurality of paddles and the second plurality of paddles to displace substantially equal volumes in opposite directions in the lower portion of the stationary vacuum chamber.

A system for converting cellulosic feedstock to sugar is provided. The system comprises a biomass hopper configured to accept raw material, a conveying tube with a conveying screw configured to separate and transport the raw material, a product heater proximate the conveying screw tube, a drop chute in communication with the conveying screw, and a crusher assembly configured to receive the raw material and defining a reaction zone, grind raw material under pressure to induce a solid-solid chemical reaction to produce the sugar, wherein the crusher assembly comprises a pair of rollers configured to crush the raw material therebetween.

A method and a device for regulating waste organic polymer material pyrolysis products are provided. Waste organic polymer materials are uniformly mixed with a composite auxiliary agent for removing harmful elements at a mass ratio of 90:10 and subjected to pyrolysis at 400-450 C. Resulting primary pyrolysis products are brought into contact with catalysts and placed at a temperature of 550-800 C. to obtain pyrolysis products. The invention reduces the sulfur and chlorine content in pyrolysis oil products by more than 85%. Through the reverse flow of the waste organic polymer materials relative to the catalysts during pyrolysis, and the regulation of catalyst temperature, the invention achieves increased production of low-carbon olefins and aromatics in the pyrolysis products, significantly improving the economic value of the pyrolysis products and promoting technological innovation in the pyrolysis industry for materials such as waste rubber and waste plastic.

A reactor tube for a tubular reactor and a retaining device associated with the reactor tube; the reactor tube comprising an elongate tube defining a bore for receiving in use a catalyst and having an outlet at one end of the bore for discharging the catalyst out of the bore; the retaining device being configured to be rotatable between a first position and a second position; wherein in the first position the retaining device at least partially obstructs the outlet for retaining the catalyst within the bore; and in the second position the outlet is unobstructed sufficiently for permitting discharge of the catalyst out of the outlet.

The present invention relates to a device and method for continuous recovery of ammonia nitrogen from aluminum ash. The device comprises a reaction kettle, a steam generator, and a feeder. The steam generator and the feeder are both mounted on the reaction kettle. The steam generator delivers steam into the reaction kettle, and the feeder is used to deliver aluminum ash into the reaction kettle. The device further includes an intersection dispersion assembly and a cyclic motion assembly. The intersection dispersion assembly is installed inside the reaction kettle and is used for intersecting and dispersing the steam and aluminum ash. In the present invention, operations are performed in sequence on two dispersion surfaces. Both helical surfaces of the blade are used, which improves space utilization and increases the total dispersion area. Within one cycle, aluminum ash is spread and scraped completely, effectively improving processing efficiency.

Methods and systems for hydrogen production from inert sodium salts are described herein. In an example method, steam is generated by a nuclear reactor power plant system. The steam is applied to sodium formate to facilitate one or more thermal and/or hydrothermal decomposition processes, thereby generating hydrogen. In the example method, sodium formate is generated by combining sodium hydroxide generated by an electrolysis process with sodium carbonate and/or sodium bicarbonate generated by a carbon capture process. Embodiments can be used to supply hydrogen storage facilities and/or for energy production.
