Abstract
A system for waste processing includes a feeder for receiving a waste stream of carbonaceous materials, multiple independently controllable augers, a reactor and an incinerator. The reactor receives a waste stream from the feeder and using a controllable heating element assembly converts the carbonaceous materials in the waste stream to syngas. The incinerator uses the syngas from the reactor to incinerate separately received black water waste from a storage tank.
Claims15
A system for waste processing comprising:
- a feeder for receiving a waste stream of carbonaceous materials, the feeder including a first controllable auger for directing the waste stream;
- a reactor for receiving the directed waste stream from the feeder, the reactor including multiple reactor tubes connected in a stacked arrangement, wherein each of the multiple reactor tubes includes a second controllable auger, and a first heating element assembly for converting the carbonaceous materials to syngas and ash;
- and
- an incinerator for receiving the syngas from the reactor and for receiving black water waste from a storage tank, wherein the incinerator includes at least one burner fueled by the syngas for incinerating the received black water waste.
