Pyrolysis reactor system for the conversion and analysis of organic solid waste

A pyrolysis reactor system for the conversion and analysis of organic solid waste, comprising:

• a pyrolysis fixed bed cylindrical reactor for converting organic solid waste into a solid product and a gas-liquid product mixture through pyrolysis, the reactor includes a three-zone furnace wherein each zone provides a temperature of up to 850° C., wherein the reactor includes a collection unit in direct communication therewith to collect the solid product;
• a source of carrier gas in contact with the pyrolysis reactor for achieving pyrolytic conditions therein;
• a first gas-liquid separator in fluid communication with the pyrolysis reactor and a chiller, the first gas-liquid separator receiving the gas-liquid product mixture directly from the pyrolysis reactor, separating a portion of gas therefrom, and outputting the portion of gas from the first gas-liquid separator for analysis thereof;
• a condenser receiving the gas-liquid product mixture directly from the first gas-liquid separator;
• a second gas-liquid separator in direct fluid communication with the condenser, the second gas-liquid separator receiving the gas-liquid product mixture therefrom and separating the remainder of the gas therefrom, whereby the remainder of the gas and the separated liquid are each collected separately from one another for analysis thereof;
• and
• a multi-port valve for separating the separated liquid into fractional components for automatic sampling of the liquid.
