When the pyrolysis pipe 33 rotates, the ash in the ash chamber 37 is conveyed from front to back, and the biomass in the pyrolysis chamber 35 is conveyed from back to front. The ash inlet 34 is connected to the ash outlet of the combustion furnace 1.

[0023] The two ends of the furnace wall 319 are rotatably connected to the pyrolysis pipe 33 through bearings 321. The rear end of the pyrolysis pipe 33 is fixedly sleeved with a transmission gear 310 and a rotary motor 313. The rotary motor 313 drives the transmission gear 310 to rotate through gear transmission, thereby driving the pyrolysis pipe 33 to rotate. The pyrolysis carbonization furnace body 3 adopts a rotary method to transport materials, and opposite conveying screws are arranged inside and outside the pyrolysis pipe 33. When the pyrolysis pipe 33 rotates, it can simultaneously drive the opposite conveying of biomass materials and ash by rotary means, which simplifies the heat transfer and conveying structure, improves the conveying efficiency, and can realize continuous production.

[0024] The ash outlet in the combustion furnace 1 is discharged to the front end of the ash chamber 37 of the pyrolysis carbonization furnace 3. The rotary motor 313 drives the pyrolysis pipe 33 to rotate. The high-temperature ash is on the outside of the pyrolysis pipe 33, and the biomass is on the inside of the pyrolysis pipe 33. The heat of the high-temperature ash is transferred to the biomass inside the pyrolysis pipe 33 through the pyrolysis pipe 33, realizing pyrolysis of the biomass, making full use of the waste heat of the ash, and realizing heat recovery.

[0025] The front end of the pyrolysis pipe 33 extends out of the front end of the furnace wall 319. The front end of the pyrolysis pipe 33 is provided with a front sealed cabin 32. The pyrolysis chamber 35 and the front sealed cabin 32 are sealed by a graphite packing. A pyrolysis gas pipe 31 is provided on the top of the sealed cabin 32.

[0026] The lower end of the sealed cabin 32 is connected to a charcoal buffer hopper 317, and a charcoal outlet screw 316 is provided at the lower outlet of the charcoal buffer hopper 317, and the charcoal outlet screw 316 is driven by a charcoal outlet motor 318; the charcoal after pyrolysis carbonization can be cached in the charcoal buffer hopper 317, and at the same time it plays a certain sealing role to prevent the pyrolysis gas from overflowing through the charcoal outlet, and finally discharged by the charcoal outlet screw 316 and finally collected in the charcoal collecting box 5.

[0027] The inlet of the combustion furnace 1 is provided with a feed conveyor belt 6, and the combustion furnace 1 is provided with a chain conveyor belt 2. The burning material will pass through the feed conveyor belt 6 and enter the combustion furnace 1, and after being ignited, it will start to burn and provide heat, and then be transported to the rear end of the combustion furnace by the high-temperature resistant chain conveyor belt 2, during which time it will be fully burned to form ash, and finally sent to the ash inlet 34 by the high-temperature resistant chain conveyor belt 2.

[0029] The rear end of the pyrolysis pipeline 33 extends beyond the rear end of the furnace wall 319. The rear end of the pyrolysis pipeline 33 is provided with a rear sealed cabin 311. The pyrolysis chamber 35 and the rear sealed cabin 311 are also sealed by graphite packing. The front sealed cabin 32 and the rear sealed cabin 311 together seal the middle pyrolysis chamber 35. The rear end of the rear sealed cabin 311 is connected to a feed screw 312 and a feed motor 315 driving the feed screw 312. The feed screw 312 passes through the feed screw 312 and extends into the pyrolysis chamber 35. The outlet of the feed screw 312 extends into the pyrolysis chamber 35.

[0030] The specific working principle of the present invention: The pyrolysis carbonization system comprises a combustion furnace 1 and a pyrolysis carbonization furnace 3. The ash inlet 34 of the pyrolysis carbonization furnace 3 is connected to the ash outlet of the combustion furnace 1. The pyrolysis carbonization furnace 3 is a double-layer design, with a furnace wall 319 on the outside. A pyrolysis pipe 33 is arranged inside the furnace wall 319. The inside of the pyrolysis pipe 33 is a pyrolysis chamber 35, and the outside is an ash chamber 37. An inner conveying screw 38 is fixed to the inner wall of the pyrolysis pipe 33, and an outer conveying screw 36 is fixed to the outer wall of the pyrolysis pipe 33. The inner conveying screw 38 rotates in the opposite direction to the outer conveying screw 36. When the pyrolysis pipe 33 rotates, the ash in the ash chamber 37 is transported from front to back, and the biomass in the pyrolysis chamber 35 is transported from back to front. This system uses boiler combustion ash as the heat source for pyrolysis carbonization. The pyrolysis carbonization furnace 3 is a double-layer carbonization furnace body. The outer layer is the ash chamber 37, which exchanges heat inward, and the inner layer is the pyrolysis chamber 35, which is directly separated from the ash by only one layer of pyrolysis pipe 33, and has a higher heat exchange efficiency.
