DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The invention relates to processing of solid fuel in liquid and gaseous fuels, in particular to the technology and art pyrolytic conversion of organic substances in gaseous and liquid fuels.

There are a method and apparatus for the pyrolysis of coal into liquid fuels (Blokhin Pyrolysis technology for processing fuel feedstock -.. CENEF, April-June 2002, pp 10-13).

The disadvantage of this method is the low productivity and the low yield of liquid and gaseous fuels from coal (30-40% by weight of organic matter).

The closest to the technical nature of the present invention is a method and apparatus for processing biomass into liquid fuel by fast pyrolysis (Towards the "bio-refinery" Fast pyrolysis of Biomass. RE World. 2001. Vol. 4. 1. P. 67-83 ).

In this process, organic matter is ground, is heated in a pyrolysis installation with subsequent condensation products of pyrolysis into gaseous and liquid fuels. Pyrolysis plant comprises a device for shredding device controlled supply of particulate organic matter in the processing chamber and gas fuel to liquid condensation device.

The disadvantage of this method and apparatus is the low rate of heating to biomass Biomass Pyrolytic decomposition temperature (about 1 s), the low calorific value and high water content (20-50%) in the obtained liquid fuel and a large energy consumption for processing organic material.

The object of the invention is to increase the yield of liquid and gaseous fuels from organic material and 70% reduction in water content to 5.1%, and increases the heat of combustion of 15-20% and a reduction of energy consumption per 1 kg of the obtained liquid and gaseous fuels.

As a result, the invention is used increases yield of gaseous and liquid fuels from organic material and 70% reduced water content of up to 5.1%, increases the calorific value of 15-20%, and reduced energy consumption per 1 kg of the obtained liquid and gaseous fuels.

The above technical result is achieved by a method for processing organic material pyrolysis into gaseous and liquid fuels by fine grinding and heating the organic matter without oxygen and subsequent condensation products of pyrolysis into liquid fuel heating finely divided water-containing organic material is carried out successively in two chambers separated to 250- 375 o C and in the second (processing chamber) to 650-750 o C, dehydrated and finely dispersed material in the second chamber is heated in the presence of cold-frequency discharge plasma jet voltage of 1-500 kV, a frequency of 1-300 kHz and steam, obtained in the chamber removing moisture directed through the bypass circuit steam in the steam engine and (or) a heat exchanger for the production of electricity and heat, and the gaseous fuel from the chamber processing for the bypass circuit pyrolysis gas fed to the heat engine and (or) to the heat exchanger for generating electricity, heat of condensation and apparatus for producing liquid fuels.

Installation pyrolysis processing of organic material into gaseous and liquid fuels for carrying out the method, comprising a hopper receiving feedstock, the dispenser, the processing chamber container for solid and gaseous fuels condensation unit in fluid contains moisture removal chamber connected to the camera processing unit to generate cold-frequency discharge plasma jet voltage of 1-500 kV, a frequency of 1-300 kHz, processing executed in the camera, which is connected to the high-speed heating device organic matter to 650-750 o C 0.8-1.2 kW electric power to each 1 g of processed 1 with the organic matter, a camera processing and is connected to the circumferential contour of the pyrolysis gas with the thermal machine and / or heat exchanger and a condensation device and the dehumidification chamber is connected with the device heating the water-containing organic substances with a high heating rate of water-containing organic substances with a high speed heating to 250-375 o C and a bypass loop steam with a steam engine and / or the heat exchanger.

Water-containing organic material is heated in the first stage of the first chamber to remove the moisture water critical temperature at which the latent heat of vaporization is close to zero, thereby reducing the power consumption of the process. Removal of moisture in the first stage helps to reduce the water content of the pyrolysis product liquid fraction. This achieves an increase in calorific value derived liquid fuels.

Method of processing water-containing organic material into gaseous and liquid fuels and apparatus for its implementation are explained in Figures 1 and 2.
