There is provided a system for recycling waste heat using a solid refuse fuel incinerator, the system including: a solid refuse fuel incinerator configured to incinerate solid refuse fuel supplied into the solid refuse fuel incinerator, the solid refuse fuel incinerator being configured to discharge exhaust gas produced during the incineration; a harmful material precipitator configured to adsorb and precipitate a harmful material by injecting adsorption water to the discharged exhaust gas; a precipitation water filtering device configured to filter and purify precipitation water in which the harmful material is adsorbed and precipitated; a steam power generator configured to generate electricity using steam produced by heat exchange between waste heat of the incinerator and cooling water supplied to cool the solid refuse fuel incinerator; and a hydroponic cultivator configured to be supplied with clean water purified by the precipitation water filtering device and perform hydroponics using the supplied clean water.

Described herein is an apparatus (10), system (300) and method for pyrolysing and combusting a material. One described embodiment provides an apparatus (10) comprising one or more crucibles (50, 51) for receiving a material to be pyrolysed and combusted therein and one or more heating tubes (100-210) disposed in proximity to the crucible(s) (50, 51). The or each heating tube (100-210) is configured for receiving byproduct(s) produced during pyrolysis and combustion of the material within the crucible(s) (50, 51) and pyrolising and combusting the byproduct(s) to produce flue gas from the byproduct(s). The flue gas produced within the heating tube(s) (100-210) are mixed with a hydroxy gas.

A gravity-fed housing for use in a gasification system is disclosed. The gravity-fed housing has a receiving end panel that forms a receive opening in a first plane. The receive opening is configured to receive a first plurality of heat carriers via gravity. The gravity-fed housing includes a siding connected to the receiving end panel. The siding forms a chamber and a discharge opening in a second plane that is parallel to the first plane. The discharge opening is offset with respect to the receive opening such that a line perpendicular to the receiving end panel that extends through a center point of the receive opening does not intersect a center point of the second opening. The siding includes a first panel that comprises a guiding surface that intersects the line and is angled toward the discharge opening.
