Abstract
Disclosed herein are reactors for pyrolysis of plastic feedstock comprising post-consumer and/or post-industrial plastics. In various implementations, the reactors include a reactor vessel, and one or more heaters configured for heating the feedstock in the reactor vessel's internal volume.
Claims22
A reactor for pyrolysis of plastic feedstock comprising post-consumer and/or post-industrial plastics, the reactor comprising:
- a reactor vessel defining an internal volume configured for receiving and pyrolyzing the plastic feedstock;
- and
- one or more heaters configured for heating the feedstock in the reactor vessel's internal volume to a temperature between 200° C. and 1,000° C.;
- wherein the reactor is configured for producing an average of 0.30 pounds or more of pyrolyzed product per hour per gallon of the reactor's internal volume for a period of 24 hours or more.
