What is major difference in combustion, gasification and pyrolysis?

(picture:What is major difference in combustion, gasification and pyrolysis?)

Combustion, gasification, and pyrolysis are three common thermochemical processes used to treat waste and recover energy or valuable resources. Although all three use heat to transform materials, they differ in oxygen requirements, operating principles, and final products.

 

Pyrolysis

Combustion

Gasification

Oxygen Supply

Oxygen-free conditions

Sufficient oxygen

Limited oxidant

Operating Principle

Decompose materials at high temperatures without oxygen

Burn materials with sufficient oxygen

Convert materials using limited oxygen, air or steam

Final Products

Pyrolysis oil, syngas and carbon-rich residues

Heat, flue gas and ash

Syngas

For these three waste recycling solution, customers can select the suitable method based on your recycled feedstock types, project objectives, environmental requirements and desired end products. But if you mainly recycle the waste tires and plastics, pyrolysis offers a potential route to recover pyrolysis oil, carbon-rich solid products and syn-gas. And the pyrolysis will be a better choice.

For waste tire plastic pyrolysis recycling, the final obtained products have wide applications to generate huge profits for customers' recycling project:

产物应用素材

Pyrolysis oil is a high-quality heating fuel with a calorific value of about 10000 kcal/kg. It is widely used in boiler plants, cement plants, steel plants, brick plants, glass plants, heavy oil power plants, heating centers, and other fields; carbon black can be directly sold or made into briquettes to replace coal for industrial heating. The calorific value is equivalent to coal and charcoal, and it can be further refined to produce various rubber products. As for the syn-gas, after purifying, it can be used as heating fuel for the pyrolysis reactor to save operating cost.

And for the pyrolysis recycling, there is equipped with the full set of environmental protection sytsems to avoid pollution during the whole process. So the whole recycling project can meet the environmental standards in various countries.
