Apparatus And Process For Converting Biomass Feed Materials Into Reusable Carbonaceous And Hydrocarbon Products

US Patent:
2009000, Jan 8, 2009
Filed:
Sep 15, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/210561
Inventors:
David G. Smith - Sturgeon Bay WI, US
International Classification:
C10G 9/00, B01J 8/00
US Classification:
44606, 422187
Abstract:
Apparatus and process for producing carbonaceous materials and/or hydrocarbon materials from a biomass feed composition, the apparatus including a feed port; a thermal decomposition assembly including a ribbonchannel reactor which includes an inner heated hollow cylinder; an outer heated hollow cylinder, one of which is rotatable with respect to the other, both heated hollow cylinders providing heat to the feed composition to convert it to a vapor fraction and a solid residue fraction; low height flighting mounted with respect to the inner and outer heated hollow cylinders to move the feed composition through the thermal decomposition assembly; at least one vapor port for removing the vapor fraction containing a hydrocarbon material; and at least one solids port for removing the solid fraction, containing a carbonaceous material.
