  • Patent number: 7951289
    Abstract: A continuous steam pyrolysis method is provided. The method comprises feeding a material to be pyrolyzed into a tubular reactor and carrying out a pyrolysis reaction in the tubular reactor in the presence of a superheated steam flow. The material to be pyrolyzed passes through one or more proceeding zones and one or more blending zones during the pyrolysis reaction in the tubular reactor. The total length of the one or more blending zones ranges about 5% to about 35% of the total length of the proceeding zones and the blending zones.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20110107668
    Abstract: A continuous pyrolysis system, comprising a reactor with a charge port, a discharge port and a first gas outlet and a first axial transporting structure installed therein; a hest-source generator for supplying heat necessary for carrying out a pyrolysis reaction in the reactor; a solid-product reformer for performing a reforming process for the solid product of the pyrolysis reaction, with a first solid product inlet, a first solid product outlet and a second gas outlet, and a second axial transporting structure installed therein, wherein the first solid product inlet is communicated with the discharge port of the reactor; and a gas-barrier component for preventing the gas product of the pyrolysis reaction from entering the solid product reformer and transporting the solid product of the pyrolysis reaction into the solid-product reformer, wherein the gas barrier component is installed in a channel communicating the first solid product inlet and the discharge port of the reactor.
