Waste Tyre Management
VIPAR ENGINEERING
PYROLISIS PLANT
INNOVATIVE DESIGN WITH LOW INSTALLATION COST AND HIGHER EFICIENCY

Technology
Pyrolysis involves heating waste tyres /plastic without oxygen to break them down to char or carbon black, oil, and gas. Plants operate within a temperature range of 250° - 500°C.At temperatures above approximately 150°C tires release increasing amounts of liquid oil products and gases. Above 400°C, depending on the process employed, the yield of oil and solid tire-derived char may decrease relative to gas production.

A typical commercial operation is described below.
1. 2. 3. 4. Tires delivered to a site are weighed. Tires are introduced to systems whole or else halved, chopped, or shredded. The feedstock is typically dried and preheated, using tire-derived gas. Temperature and residence time in the reactor are two key pyrolysis reactor design criteria. In the gasification stage, tire-derived oil, is condensed and cooled. Light and heavy oil fractions may be handled separate A separator removes any remaining water vapor. The product is filtered. 5. Solid tire-derived char is cooled, typically using a water-cooled stage. The product may be sized and screened to remove fiber. A magnetic separation stage captures magnetic materials remaining in the char. washing the char and further size reducing it produces the carbon black p r o d u c t . 6 Tire-derived gas maintains operating pressure in the system and provides heat to the system. Vented gases pass through a pollution control train, which may include a gas flare. 7. Gas can further treated for power generation. It is passes through venturi scrubber to remove particulate matter from gas and then it is passes through water cooled condenser which can help to bring down the temperature of Tire-derived gas and cracking of tar from it. Further it is passes through various filters containing wood waste and saw dust waste to remove moisture from gas and finally cleaned through fabric filter. Resultant

    1. Pyrolysis is quite important in the role of combustion of solid fuels because it is the actual act and is necessary in order for the item to ignite. It is the conversion of a solid to a gas form by using high heat. Without it, the fuel being heated appropriately, the gases won’t break apart and form into vapors that can then combust.…

    As the gas leaves the furnace, the carbon dioxide and water vapor produced by the combustion reaction are carried out of the furnace. The gas stream first passes through a desiccant, typically Mg(ClO4)2, which removes all moisture from the gas stream. Next the gas stream passes through a tube containing NaOH, which removes all carbon dioxide from the gas stream (forming NaHCO3).…

    There are three different techniques that are used to capture the carbon dioxide: post-combustion, pre-combustion and oxyfuel-combustion. However, the most common technique is post-combustion, and this technique is also used in Project ROAD. With this technique, carbon dioxide is filtered out of the gasses released by power plants using a cooled solvent. In the case of Project ROAD, this cooled solvent is mono-ethanol-amine. Post-combustion has both advantages and disadvantages compared to the other two forms of combustion. The biggest disadvantages are that the machinery is quite large, that a lot of solvent is needed and that the heating of the solvent can produce toxic by-products. However, major advantages are also present, and the most important one is that post-combustion can be applied to already consisting plants.1…

    For an automobile’s internal combustion engine to operate, a controlled combustion reaction needs to occur inside the vehicle’s engine. But this reaction also produces harmful burnt gases that contribute significantly to air pollution. The catalytic converters in the automobile can bind with the pollutants and reduce the waste materials that cause pollution. gasoline engines, catalytic converters are reliable and efficient at reducing pollution. They convert an estimated 90% of the hydrocarbons, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen oxides produced into less harmful compounds. However, catalytic converters are less efficient when used with diesel engines, which run colder than gasoline engines. Catalytic converters work best at higher temperatures.…

    In this report I will explain the fuel systems in an automobile. I will cover different parts and how they work. First thing to do is explain how the fuel system works. The purpose of the fuel system is to store and supply fuel to the cylinder chamber where it can be mixed with air then vaporized and burned to produce energy. The fuel, which can be either gas or diesel is stored in a fuel tank. A fuel pump draws the fuel from the gas tank through lines and brings it through a fuel filter. Next it goes to either a carburetor or fuel injector and then delivered to the cylinder chamber for combustion.…

    CO and H2 content of the top gas has a potential to act as reducing gas elements, and therefore their re-circulation to the furnace is considered as an effective alternative to improve the blast furnace performance, enhance the utilization of carbon and hydrogen, and reduce the emission of carbon oxides. In Top Gas Recycling Blast Furnace, oxygen is blown into the blast furnace instead of hot air to eliminate N2 in off-gas. Part of the off-gas containing CO and H2 is utilized again as the reducing agent in the blast furnace. CO2 from the off-gas is captured and subsequently stored. Various recycling processes have been suggested, evaluated or practically applied for different objectives. These processes are distinguished by: 1) with or without CO2 removal, 2) with or without preheating, and 3) the position of injection.…

    An engine is a device which transforms one form of energy into another form. However, while transforming energy from one form to another form, the efficiency of conversion plays an important role. Normally, most of the engines convert thermal energy to mechanical work and therefore they are called ‘heat engines’. Heat engine is a device which transforms the chemical energy of a fuel into thermal energy and utilizes this thermal energy to perform useful work. Depending upon whether the working substance is a gas or a liquid-vapour, there are two kinds of cycles, the non-phase change cycle and the phase change cycle. The non-phase change cycle employs a gas which remains in the same phase throughout the working cycle. The phase change cycle employs a substance that is usually a liquid to start with but which becomes a vapour after energy intake as heat, and may even be superheated during part of the cycle. This vapour is later condensed to repeat the cycle. In all present day phase change cycles, energy addition to the working fluid occurs outside the device, where work is done. In most non-phase change cycles, energy addition occurs in the cylinder where work is done.…
