Pyrolytic gas processor and tire conversion system therefrom

A method of gas processing, comprising:

• receiving air and a first combustible gas at a first end of a gas/fuel burner including a nozzle providing a flame extending out from said nozzle;
• using a syn-gas chamber having injection holes including a syn-gas feed line and a syn-gas nozzle plate coupled between a second end of a burner chamber and said gas/fuel burner including over said nozzle, directing syn-gas received from said syn-gas feed line through said injection holes into a path of said flame for combustion of said syn-gas;
• while combusting said syn-gas:
• pumping air into said burner chamber using an air pipe having a plurality of air pipe discharge ports extending from said first end to within said burner chamber having an air blower coupled thereto configured to pump said air into said burner chamber to cool said burner chamber, and
• sensing a temperature over a reactor chamber being heated by radiant heat from said combustion of said syn-gas and a fan controller which receives said temperature from a first temperature sensor regulating a flow of said air provided by said air blower.

A system for pyrolizing tires, comprising:

• a reactor including a pyrolysis (reactor) chamber including at least one heater having a pyrolysis zone, an inlet and outlets on respective sides of said pyrolysis zone, said outlets including a flue pipe and a second outlet;
• a feed system for transferring feedstock comprising tire pieces received from a feed source into said inlet;
• a conveyer for moving material associated with said tire pieces through said reactor chamber;
• wherein pyrolysis performed in said reactor chamber pyrolizes said feedstock to generate solid material and hydrocarbon gases including ash particles,
• a condenser coupled to said flue pipe for liquefying said hydrocarbon gases before collection in a collection tank, and
• an outlet conveyor for transferring said solid material from said second outlet to a recovery hopper;
• a gas processor, comprising:
• a burner chamber including a first end and a second end positioned proximate to said reactor chamber to provide radiant heat for heating said reactor chamber;
• a gas/fuel burner having an inlet receiving air and an inlet for receiving a first combustible gas including a nozzle providing a flame extending out from said nozzle;
• a syn-gas chamber having injection holes including a syn-gas feed line and a syn-gas nozzle plate coupled between said second end of said burner chamber and said gas/fuel burner including over said nozzle, wherein syn-gas is directed by said injection holes into a path of said flame for combustion of said syn-gas, and
• an air pipe having a plurality of air pipe discharge ports extending from said first end to within said burner chamber having an air blower coupled thereto configured to pump air into said burner chamber, and
• a heat box surrounding both said reactor chamber and said burner chamber, and an air blast plate under said burner chamber, wherein air entering into said heat box through said air pipe discharged by said plurality of air pipe discharge ports is distributed essentially evenly under said burner chamber by said air blast plate.
