Abstract
A waste wood sleeper pyrolysis apparatus of a hybrid heating type includes a plurality of reactor containers arranged side by side, each having a space in which a waste wood sleeper is placed, a movement rail arranged parallel to an end of one side and an end of the other side of each of the plurality of reactor containers, and a microwave applicator coupled to the movement rail and including a plurality of microwave generators that move to upper portions of the plurality of reactor containers to transmit microwaves into the plurality of reactor containers.
Claims16
A waste wood sleeper pyrolysis apparatus of a hybrid heating type comprising:
- a plurality of reactor containers arranged side by side, each having a space in which a waste wood sleeper is placed;
- a movement rail arranged parallel to an end of one side and an end of the other side of each of the plurality of reactor containers;
- and
- a microwave applicator coupled to the movement rail and including a plurality of microwave generators that move to upper portions of the plurality of reactor containers to transmit microwaves into the plurality of reactor containers.
A method of pyrolyzing a waste wood sleeper by using a waste wood sleeper pyrolysis apparatus, the method comprising:
- placing a microwave applicator on an upper portion of a first reactor container among a plurality of reactor containers;
- heating an inside of the first reactor container by using a plate-heater generation unit inside or outside the first reactor container;
- introducing the waste wood sleeper into the first reactor container;
- pyrolyzing the waste wood sleeper by applying power to the microwave applicator;
- moving the microwave applicator to an upper portion of a second reactor container adjacent to the first reactor container;
- and
- reducing a temperature in the first reaction container and recovering a bio-solid fuel generated inside the first reactor container.
