Twin Reactor Pyrolysis Converting System (GETH Process)
Process description over view:
The tires and plastic to oil process is composed of a combination of three processes that have been placed in line so that they operate as one complete system. These processes will be further described throughout the narrative. The first system is the Pyrolysis Induction system. This converts tire and plastic feedstock into sweet crude oil. The second system is what is called a secondary distillation process. This equipment is directly hooked up to the Pyrolysis converter and flows oil into a secondary reactor, then through the distillation process to further refine the oil. This is accomplished by running the oil through a secondary heat signature. The last piece of equipment is the Catalyst filtration system. The oil is directly hooked up to this system; the oil is re-heated to 500 deg F and is then processed through a catalyst media that removes any residual organic chloride. From here the oil is moved into the finished product storage vessels.
Pyrolysis System
Equipment Description:
The Twin Reactor system consists of two rotational reactor xxxxxxxx that are operated via an Electrical Heated Induction process. Each reactor is operated independently. The system is controlled by a semi-computerized process controller that monitors heat at three different zones on the reactor. As the feed stock material temperature rises it turns into a vaporous gas, which in turn moves through a separation chamber. At the separation chamber there are four specific activities that take place. The first stage of feed stock vaporization. This takes place around 700 deg F. Oil that is heavier than air is released to a contained reservoir that stores the heavy oil; the second stage “light oil” is fully vaporized and is moved to the condensing vessels where it turns into light sweet crude oil. The third and last by product that is emitted from the separator is carbon black that is released through a valve gate at the bottom of the separator. The carbon black goes into a contained storage vessel, which is sealed so that the carbon black is fully captured without it becoming air borne. Once the gases are fully vaporized and condensed into oil it is move onto the main storage vessel. The last by product is residual gases that are processed through a filtration process to clean in residual carbon; the gas is then compressed into LPG storage vessels.The entire process is a closed loop system that contains and processes vapor’s and gases throughout the entire process. At no time are there any gases or vapors emitted into the atmosphere. The reactor chamber hatch is closed and sealed throughout the entire process cycle; it is only opened once all of the vapors and gases have been evacuated from the reactor chamber. There is a main check valve in place between the reactor and the separator that prevents any gases or vapors from flowing back into the reactor chamber. All the by-products are separated into their own specific storage vessels until they are shipped. All products will be shipped by certified transporters. The transporters have all the necessary pumps and valve systems to eliminate any vapors or emissions from being released into the atmosphere during tanker loading process.

Reactor heating:
The reactor is heated by an Electrical Induction Heating generator that is powered by 360V 600amp 3 Phase power supply. By using an electrical induction heating source there are no any residual vapors being emitted into the atmosphere.
Cooling System:
The Induction Heating Generator and distillation system is cooled by a water cooling system. This system may be one of two types of systems. It can be a water evaporation system (tower system), or a chilled water system. In either case both systems are closed loop and have no direct contact with vaporized oil, or it’s by products.
Handling of finished product and -by products:
There are three specific by products in the processing of used tires, and or plastic feed stock. The first is feed stock being heated to a point where the gases vaporize, and then subsequently distilled into oil. The second is char or carbon- this is the residual of the feedstock that remains and is not converted to oil. The third are the vaporized gases that are not distilled and processed through the oil distillation process. The “Syn-gas” passes through the gas scrubbers and is converted to LPG. The fourth (with tire feed stock) is steel that is left in the reactor chamber after the entire process completes its full cycle. The oil is processed through the distillation process that is totally self-contained in a closed loop system without any outlets that would allow escape of vapors or gases to the atmosphere. The Syn-gas is also a closed loop process without any outlets that would allow gases to escape to the atmosphere.
-7-
Containment of gases, or vapors;
There are two key valves that contain any possible escape of gases and or vapors. The first valve is between the reactor outlet tube and the vapor / gas separator. This valve is opened when the feed stock is in a vapor or gas flux, and then closed once the cycle is completed and all residual gases are evacuated from the reactor chamber( this is accomplished by injecting a nitrogen purge into the reactor), at which time the door to the chamber can be opened. The nitrogen is passed all the way through the Syn gas filters. The second valve is located at the outlet of the oil-shippingreservoir. This valve is closed at all times unless oil is being pumped into a rail car or tanker trailer. Both of these valves are EPA approved valves that ensure integrity of not allowing gases or vapors to escape.
Syn Gas production;
Syn gas is one of the by-products of the Pyrolysis process. The “Syn Gas” is processed through a series of activated charcoal filters. The filters remove any residual impurities before the gas is compressed into the storage vessel. These charcoal filters that are changed annually. Once the Syn gas passes through the filtration process it then moves through a compression system that converts it into LPG and is stored in a pressurized storage container rated for LPG storage until it is transferred to a transportation vehicle for resale.
System Preventative Maintenance (PM)
There are some very specific PM that most take place. Some of these PM’s vary from daily activities to monthly or quarterly activities. These are all conducted per the equipment's PM manual. The key PM is the cleaning of the reactor internal walls. This is done once a month. The task requirement is to remove any residual carbon that is attached to the reactor walls which is scraped off with a wire brush or spatula. The residual carbon is left in the reactor where it is processed out as carbon on the subsequent production cycle. The other key PM is the cleaning of the distillation xxxxxxxx. The method here is to unbolt the top cover and to use the provided bristle brush and to remove any build up from inside the distillation tubes and then to swab them with clean rags. This process is repeated for the cooling tubes in the condenser. Any used rags are placed in a storage container and removed by a certified company. Cooling system is checked daily to ensure that the proper Ph levels are maintained to ensure that no algae is formed in the water or in the reservoir walls
Air Quality;
Air quality is monitored via a gas analyzer to ensure that there are not any potential gas leaks. The air sampling will be conducted as per established air quality monitoring procedure outlined in the air sampling process. All air-sampling records will be maintained as prescribed in air quality procedure. In addition, subject to review by the corporate air quality officer, and or air quality agency. All issues will be addressed, and corrective action handled as per the corporate air quality procedure.

Conclusion;
The construction of the entire Pyolysis conversion system is designed to be operated so that at no time during the operation the system will allow any vapors, gases, or odors be emitted to the atmosphere. All lead process operators are trained and certified on the proper and safe operation of all process equipment. At no time will any EPA emission guideline be violated or permitted to be violated.
Equipment Hardware;
All motors, temperature controllers, timers, and switches are CE certified. All pressure vessels are ASTM rated and have been pressure tested to a proof pressure as per ASTM requirements. Flanges and valves meet ASTM standards.
Secondary Distillation Systems;
Secondary Distillation System is a similar Electrical heating induction system as the Pyrolysis Reactor system. The Secondary distillation system is used to further refine the sweet crude oil by processing it through a secondary heating process. Its operating temperature is at 500 deg F. The key to the secondary distillation is that it reduces the Iron and Organic Chloride levels to an acceptable level. The iron and organics remain in the distillation tubes. As with the Pyrolysis system there is a small percentage of syn gas that is produced and is processed into LPG.
System PM’s;
PM is conducted as prescribed by the manufacture. Reactor and distillation vessels are cleaned by utilizing prescribed bristle brushes and swabbing towels. Residual material build up from distillation vessels are mainly deposits left from water build up in the cooling tubes and oil film left on the sidewalls of the distillation tubes. Spent cleaning materials are stored in drums and disposed of by certified safety disposal companies. Charcoal filters for the syn gas system are replaced once a year. Spent charcoal is placed into 55-gallon drums and taken away by a certified safety disposal company.
Air Quality;
The secondary distillation system is a closed loop system. The entire system has been tested for any emission leaks and no emission leaks were found.
-9-
Catalyst Filtration System;
The catalyst chloride removal filtration system is specifically designed to remove residual organic chloride. The system is a closed loop system that has zero emissions. Oil at the inlet is heated to 500 deg F; it enters the first vessel at 50-psi, passes over the media that is the absorbent that removes the organic chloride. The oil passes through a second media vessel that removes additional organic chloride. At the outlet the organic chloride level is less the 2.5 ppm.
System PM;
The Catalyst Filtration System has weekly and monthly PM as prescribed by the manufacturer. The absorbent media must be replaced once a year as prescribed by the manufacture of the media. The spent media is removed and placed into 55-gallon drums and taken away by a certified Safety disposal company.
