Abstract

The present invention relates to a pyrolysis reactor for batch treatment of urban waste, said reactor comprising a reaction chamber (100); wherein heat is supplied to said reaction chamber (100) by natural circulation in a two-phase thermosiphon of a working fluid made up of between 90 and 99% naphthalene. Said two-phase thermosiphon is made up of a condensation chamber (200) arranged to externally surround the reaction chamber (100), wherein an upper area (220), a middle area (230) and a lower area (240) are defined where a fluid connection to the external line (310) of a double circulation conduit (300) is arranged. Said condensation chamber (200) comprises a tray (210) for collecting, separating and distributing liquid and gaseous phases of the working fluid and comprises at least one outlet (212) that is connected to the internal line (320) of said double circulation conduit (300); an evaporation chamber (400) located away from the reactor and comprising an upper connection (410) fluidly connected to the external line (310) of said double circulation conduit (300) and a heat source to heat the working fluid up to at least approximately 400°C for its evaporation and circulation through the thermosiphon; and said double circulation conduit (300) with said external line (310) through which the working fluid in gaseous phase ascends and said internal line (320) through which the working fluid in liquid phase descends.

Abstract

Provided is a pyrolysis reactor for continuous treatment of urban waste, which comprises an upright cylindrical body (100) comprising an upper inlet section (120), a central reaction section (130) internally defining a reaction area (105), and a lower emptying section (140) with a coupling section (142) at the bottom end thereof and which defines an emptying area (106), wherein heat is provided to the central reaction section (130) and the reaction area (105) by condensing naphthalene vapour that circulates naturally as a working fluid in a two-phase thermosiphon. According to the invention, the two-phase thermosiphon operates using a working fluid composed of 90-99% naphthalene and is formed by a condensing chamber (300) surrounding the outside of the central reaction section (130), and a horizontal body (200) disposed at the bottom, below the cylindrical body (100), and which is internally connected to the emptying area (106) of the lower emptying section (140) by means of the coupling section (142), the horizontal body including a lead screw (201) that allows the biochar (202) produced to be emptied.

Abstract

A method for increasing boron rejection by reverse-osmosis water-desalination systems, which comprises modifying the desalination system such that it allows the addition and mixing of a water-soluble polyhydroxylated compound which will undergo desalination prior to the water passing through the reverse-osmosis membranes. Said method makes it possible significantly to enhance boron rejection by reverse-osmosis membranes.
