System and method for inerting a biomass feed assembly
A system for inerting a biomass feed assembly the system including a combustion chamber operably connected to the biomass feed assembly to receive a biofuel, the combustion chamber operable to combust the biofuel and generate a flue gas therefrom and a conduit operably coupled to at least one of the combustion chamber and an inert gas source, and the biomass feed assembly, the conduit operable to carry a gas to the biomass feed assembly. The gas sweeps dust generated in at least the gravity chute assembly toward the combustion chamber and the gas maintains an oxygen partial pressure or concentration in the at least a portion of the biomass feed assembly below a selected threshold sufficient to suppress ignition.
PLASTIC-POWERED POWER GENERATOR
Plastic-powered power generator. In an embodiment, the plastic-powered power generator comprises a primary reactor with an air-fuel distribution assembly configured to supply fluidized polymer, air, and oxidizer to a primary reactor chamber, and an ignition system configured to ignite a mixture of the fluidized polymer, air, and oxidizer. The primary reactor chamber extends into a secondary reactor, to, when ignited, heat air flowing through the secondary reactor from a blower to a heat exchanger. The heated air flow may convert fluid, in a coil within the heat exchanger, into steam, which can drive a turbine to generate electrical power.

An oxidizer head assembly includes a head body defining an inlet flange, an outlet flange, and a wall, where the inlet flange, the outlet flange, and the wall define a cavity positioned between the inlet flange and the outlet flange, a plurality of nozzles extending through the cavity, a fuel inlet in communication with the plurality of nozzles, where a fuel passes through the fuel inlet and the plurality of nozzles, a shield gas inlet in communication with the cavity, and a porous diffuser plate extending across the outlet opening, the porous diffuser plate including apertures for the plurality of nozzles and a plurality of pores, where a shield gas passes through the shield gas inlet, through the cavity, and through the plurality of pores of the porous diffuser plate around the plurality of nozzles.
PYROLYSIS SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE
A pyrolysis system and method of use is capable of continuously processing feedstock. The pyrolysis system has enclosed pyrolysis tubes heated by a heating means to pyrolyze feedstock. Conveying mechanisms such as augers transport the feedstock into and through the pyrolysis tubes. The pyrolysis tubes can be heated to a desired temperature range using a heat exchanger, such as a molten metal bath, or inductively heated using induction coils wrapped around the pyrolysis tubes. The feedstock is physically separated from the outside environment by the enclosed pyrolysis tubes. A dynamic feedstock plug is formed upstream of the pyrolysis tubes to prevent air and moisture from entering via the inlet of the pyrolysis tubes. An outlet section connected to the outlets of the pyrolysis tubes separates the gaseous and solid products of pyrolysis and permits removal of the products while preventing air and moisture from entering into the system.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR THE TREATMENT OF WASTE MATERIAL
A method and an apparatus for treating comminuted waste material the method comprising: •a) heating comminuted waste material in a heating chamber (28) using one or more heating means (40a-f) to generate a combustible gas •b) measuring or determining the temperature in the heating chamber; •c) comparing the measured or determined temperature in the heating chamber ((28) with a predetermined temperature range; and •d) adjusting the amount of heat applied by the one or more heating means (40a-f) to the heating chamber (28) to maintain the temperature in the heating chamber within the predetermined temperature range.
STOKER-TYPE INCINERATOR
A stoker-type incinerator includes: a recirculated exhaust gas supply unit which allows exhaust gas resulting from treating combustion gas to reflux to a combustion gas channel via a recirculated exhaust gas nozzle provided on the combustion gas channel and supplies the exhaust gas as recirculated exhaust gas.
