The invention relates to a installation (4) for recycling composite materials comprising a horizontal reactor (5) with a first zone (1), second zone (2) and third zone (3), which are leak-tight and independent, aligned with and separated from one another by means of gates that allow the passage of the composite material to be recycled only when the process has ended in a previous zone. The first zone (1) comprises a rotation mechanism (9) for rotating the material and gas outlet means (8). The second zone (2) comprises air injectors (10) and gas outlet means (11). The third zone (3) comprises cooling means. The invention also relates to a method for recycling composite materials comprising a first pyrolysis phase, a second gassing phase for gassing the material resulting from the first phase, and a third cooling phase for cooling the reinforcement material.

Apparatus and methods to eliminate PFAS from wastewater biosolids through fluidized bed gasification. The gasifier decomposes the PFAS in the biosolids at temperatures of 900-1800° F. Syngas exits the gasifier which is coupled to a thermal oxidizer and combusts at temperatures of 1600-2600° F. This decomposes PFAS in the syngas and creates flue gas. Heat is recovered from the flue gas by cooling the flue gas to temperatures of 400-1200° F. in a heat exchanger coupled with the thermal oxidizer. Various methods inject moisture into the gas stream, controlling temperature through evaporative cooling and/or injecting chemicals that react with gas stream components. Cooled flue gas mixes with hydrated lime capturing decomposed PFAS molecules with spent lime filtered from the cooled flue gas using a filter system that may incorporate catalyst impregnated filter elements, eliminating PFAS from wastewater biosolids and controlling emissions in the resulting flue gas.

A zero emission waste system comprising a waste treatment unit that couples to a facility. The waste treatment unit is onsite with the facility either within the facility or local to the facility for treating waste produced by the facility. Alternatively, the waste treatment unit can be mobile that is designed to couple to the facility for waste disposal. The waste treatment unit comprises a gasification reactor, a syngas treatment unit, and a synthetic fuel generator for treating and converting waste. The synthetic fuel generator comprises an electrolysis unit and a liquid fuel synthesis unit. The waste treatment unit converts the waste to synthetic fuel, gaseous fuel, oxygen, heat, slag, and other components that are useful to the facility or other entities. The waste treatment system uses carbon dioxide generated during a waste conversion process thereby producing substantially zero emissions and eliminating waste that could be harmful to the environment.
