Patent number: 9902859Abstract: A system and method for preparing a pelletized carbon black product is provided. The system includes a source of a carbon black product from a pyrolysis process. A mixer is in communication with the source of the carbon black product. A binder oil storage tank is in fluid communication with the mixer. The binder oil storage tank is configured to inject a desired amount of a binder oil into the mixer to form the pelletized carbon black product.Type: GrantFiled: September 18, 2015Date of Patent: February 27, 2018Assignee: Tellus Technology, Inc.Inventors: Kenneth W. Hamby, Michael R. Beck

Publication number: 20130029065Abstract: A pyrolysis process is provided. The process includes the steps of: depositing a quantity of waste into a porous container, the porous container adapted to allow a convective stream of substantially anaerobic gas to flow therethrough; inserting the porous container into a pyrolysis thermal processor; sealing the thermal processor; circulating the convective stream of gas through the pyrolysis thermal processor; heating the waste according to a first time-temperature profile to pyrolyze the waste and form a carbonaceous char; and cooling the carbonaceous char by circulating the convective stream of gas through a cooler. An oil product and a gaseous hydrocarbon product are produced during the pyrolysis. The carbonaceous char is further processed to form a carbon black product and a recyclable metal product.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2012Publication date: January 31, 2013Applicant: TELLUS TECHNOLOGY, INC.Inventor: TELLUS TECHNOLOGY, INC.
