A Versatile Self-Sustaining Method and Device for Fuel/Power Generation by Sequential Gasification and "Clean Combustion" of Waste Products

技术优势

Value PropositionThe system/method:ΓÇóInvolves the use of pyrolysis to generate pyrolyzed fuels which are either used as such or burned to generate energyΓÇóAllows for a clean burning of waste plastics with premixed flames (without releasing pollutants)ΓÇóEnables a careful energy balancing with minimization of heat losses as observed in prior art techniquesΓÇóAllows for a large scale utilization of organic wastes, thereby decreasing/emptying landfill spacesΓÇóWould be useful for key commercial applications such as advanced thermal-to-energy conversions, and clean waste-to-energy power generation

*Abstract

Solid wastes, being derivates of fossil fuels, are an extremely rich source of energy. Moreover, it has been observed that the quantity of such wastes has increased many folds over the past few decades. However, the conventional direct combustion techniques for treatment of these wastes lead to diffused flames with uncontrollable, inefficient energy production, along with generation of unhealthy soot and hydrocarbons. This novel approach enables the development and use of a system for clean combustion of organic waste materials to generate much greener fuel and power without releasing pollutants.
