Abstract
A pyrolysis apparatus having a heating system adapted to heat a first gas enclosure, wherein a gas path within the heated enclosure is helical or spherical. Pyrolysis is used to destroy oils, tars and/or PAHs in a gaseous mixture.
Claims16
A pyrolysis apparatus, comprising
- a pyrolysis unit having a pyrolysis region and a gas exit passage;
- a first gas enclosure in fluid communication with the gas exit passage of the pyrolysis unit, wherein the first gas enclosure includes a frustoconical shell having a gas input pipe connected thereto, the gas input pipe being inclined at a radius of the first gas enclosure, and wherein a gas path within the first gas enclosure is helical;
- and
- a heating system adapted to heat the first gas enclosure to a temperature sufficient for the gaseous mixture to undergo a pyrolysis process.
