Description

Screw-type pyrolysis device

[0001] The present invention relates to a pyrolysis device, and more specifically, to a screw-type pyrolysis device.

[0002] In general, due to recent high population density and rapid industrialization and urbanization, various types of waste are being generated rapidly, and as a result, the disposal of combustible waste such as waste vinyl and waste plastic is emerging as a social issue.

[0003] Methods for treating such combustible waste include recycling, incineration, and landfilling. However, there are limitations on the materials that can be recycled, and in the case of incineration, there are serious secondary air pollution problems caused by the emission of air pollutants such as dust, hydrogen chloride (HCl), sulfur oxides (SOx), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and dioxins. In the case of landfilling, there are also serious pollution problems caused by soil contamination due to the non-biodegradability of combustible waste and by leachate. Accordingly, as a means of recycling combustible waste without incineration or landfilling, research and development of liquefaction methods and devices capable of obtaining useful oil by thermally decomposing combustible waste are actively underway.

[0004] Existing processes capable of producing gaseous fractions through pyrolysis include pyrolysis devices such as CSTRs (continuous stirred tank reactors), screw-type kilns, and rotary kilns.
