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 method of processing of shredded rubber-containing waste involves its preliminary preparation, thermal decomposition in a furnace, separation of decomposition products into vapor-gas mixture and solid residue, and separation of a heavy hydrocarbon fraction from the vapor-gas mixture. Preliminary preparation of the waste is carried out by its blowing with water vapor until a waste temperature reaches 100 C., and thermal decomposition is carried out in residual oil in the starting phase, and afterwards in the atomized generated heavy hydrocarbon fraction and superheated water vapor, their weight ratio being (0.1-0.5):1. The heavy hydrocarbon fraction is separated from the vapor-gas mixture with water by atomizing it into the vapor-gas mixture flow at the rate of 5-15% of the mass flow rate of the mixture, while metal is extracted from the solid residue by magnetic separation, after which a product containing zinc oxide is separated by dielectric separation.

A pyrolysis apparatus reduces feedstock to gaseous energy sources and recyclable solids by moving feedstock through a processing unit via a feedstock transport mechanism that has sections that move the feedstock at respectively different rates through a retort within the processing unit. The feedstock transport mechanism may be an auger with a variable flighting pitch along its shaft. The pyrolysis apparatus may be modular in that processing units may be added and subtracted as necessary for any given installation. A restriction device squeezes ambient air out of the feedstock prior to entry into the pyrolysis apparatus retort.
