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.

A waste processing system includes a pyrolysis apparatus that pyrolyzes a combustible waste, a melt-and-mold apparatus that generates an ingot of resin and combustible gas from a synthetic-resin waste, and an oil extraction apparatus that generates combustible oil and combustible gas from the ingot of resin. The melt-and-mold apparatus has a melter that melts the synthetic-resin waste using heat produced by the pyrolysis apparatus, the oil extraction apparatus has a pyrolyzer that pyrolyzes the ingot of resin using the heat produced by the pyrolysis apparatus, and at least one of the combustible gas generated at the melt-and-mold apparatus and the combustible gas generated at the oil extraction apparatus is supplied to the pyrolysis apparatus.

The present application overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art by providing a system for proper life-cycle management of plastic products and the plastic waste that plastic products produce.

A pyrolysis reactor system includes a reactor and a contactor mounted above the reactor. The reactor has a shell, an inlet and an outlet. A central shaft runs along its axis and supports agitation blades in a counter-helical arrangement, and an auger. Rotation of the auger in one direction feeds feedstock into the vessel, and in the opposite direction removes char at the end of a batch. The contactor includes four elements with a frusto-conical part supported on vertical support arms, and being connected to a disc by legs. The contactor elements allow short chains to pass through apertures while long chains condense on their surfaces or on the vessel wall surface. There is dynamic tuning of carbon number of gases flowing downstream by active temperature and pressure control at the contactor.

Provided is a plastic waste solid fuel incinerator comprising: an incinerator housing which has, on the upper portion thereof, a gas outlet through which combustion gas is discharged; a fuel supply unit which transfers and supplies a plastic waste solid fuel; a first combustion unit which continuously transfers and burns the supplied plastic waste solid fuel; a first air supply unit which supplies air needed for combustion to the first combustion unit; a combustion gas induction unit which induces the combustion gas generated from the first combustion unit toward the lower portion of a first combustion chamber; a second combustion unit which is arranged in the lower portion of the first combustion unit and comprises a downward injection nozzle unit which downwardly injects the combustion gas supplied through the combustion gas induction unit in order to reburn the combustion gas; and a second air supply unit which is arranged in the lower portion of the second combustion unit and supplies the air needed for combustion to the second combustion unit by downwardly injecting the air. Accordingly, there is an advantage of allowing continuous combustion using combustion gas generated during the combustion of the plastic waste solid fuel without using a separate auxiliary fuel, thereby reducing incineration costs.
