A tunnel pyrolysis furnace has a body and at least one flaming device. The body has a chamber and multiple tubes. The multiple tubes are disposed around the chamber and have catalysts loaded inside. The at least one flaming device is disposed near the body, and is used to heat up the body. The multiple tubes absorb heat, so heat is concentrated around the chamber and that provides an effect of even heating. Therefore, the chamber may reach a temperature for pyrolysis in a short time.

A coke oven includes an oven chamber configured to support and heat a coal bed, a castable slab below the oven chamber, and a foundation supporting the heat recovery oven. One or more beams are positioned between the castable slab and the foundation. The beams extend from a first end of the oven chamber to a second end of the oven chamber, forming a plurality of air gaps between the castable slab and the foundation. Heat from the oven chamber is dissipated by the one or more beams.

A fast pyrolysis heat exchanger system for economically and efficiently converting biomass and other combustible materials into bio-oil. The system employs multiple closed loop tubes situated inside the heat exchanger. As a granular solid heat carrier is deposited at the top of the heat exchanger and caused to move downwardly therethrough, heat is transferred from the tubes to the heat carrier which is then transferred to a reactor where it is placed in contact with the combustible materials.
