  • Apparatus for pyrolyzing tire shreds and tire pyrolysis systems
    Patent number: 7329329
    Abstract: Tire pyrolysis systems and processes are provided which include feeding tire shreds to a pyrolysis reactor, pyrolyzing the shreds in a pyrolysis reactor to produce a hydrocarbon-containing gas stream and carbon-containing solid, removing the carbon-containing solid from the reactor, directing the hydrocarbon-containing gas stream into a separator, contacting the hydrocarbon-containing gas stream with an oil spray in the separator thereby washing particulate from the hydrocarbon-containing gas stream and condensing a portion of the gas stream to oil, removing and cooling the oil from the separator, directing non-condensed gas from the gas stream away from the separator, and directing a portion of the cooled oil removed from the separator to an inlet of the separator for use as the separator oil spray.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: January 30, 2004
    Date of Patent: February 12, 2008
    Assignee: Renaissance Energy Group, Inc.
    Inventors: Blaine Masemore, Robert Zarrizski
