Experimental Determination of Energy Demand and Spatio-Temporal Course of Pyrolysis for Various Materials

Abstract:

The article presents a detailed analysis of brown coal, rubber and polyethylene pyrolysis in a horizontal reactor of a thermic facility. It is a facility continuously processing entry materials flowing in the amount of up to 150 Kg.h ^-1 and with the total maximum heaters’ output of 200 kW. The attention has been paid to the thermal input of the pyrolysis process and to the description of physical-chemical processes in time and the reactor space. The objective has been to find out the best combination of entry material and process conditions from the point of view of pyrolysis energy intensity. The article specifics are based on the fact that the mentioned processes have been analysed in a large facility having the semi-production characteristics, not within a laboratory system used usually in this kind of research (DSC).
