Abstract

A system for the pyrolization of waste has a combustion chamber with a fuel inlet and a hot gas outlet, a pyrolization chamber separated from the combustion chamber, and a conveyor means positioned within the pyrolization chamber for moving waste from the waste inlet through the pyrolization chamber. The pyrolization chamber is connected to the hot gas outlet of the combustion chamber. The pyrolization chamber has a waste inlet and pyrolized waste outlet. A plurality of radiant tubes are positioned within the pyrolization chamber adjacent to the conveyor so as to heat the waste on the conveyor.
