Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1607681A1] Apparatus (1) for high temperature heat treatment of combustible material, in particular municipal solid waste (waste products), or waste combustible of a desired nature, provided solid and not explosive, comprising a pyrolysis chamber (41) in which the material to treat is heated in a reducing environment to a temperature suitable for making a first molecular break of the substances in they present and a combustion chamber (42) within which is achieved a full combustion of the combustible material fed by feeding oxygen in amount predetermined. The full combustion of the combustible material executed in combustion chamber (42) of the apparatus (1) produces, in particular, gas at high temperature that is sent to the pyrolysis chamber in order to raise remarkably the temperature of pyrolysis. This associated to the introducing water vapour, through a duct (6), and of air, through a duct (7), in pyrolysis chamber (41) produce semiwater gas that is then burnt in combustion chamber (42) by feeding a current (8) of a fluid containing oxygen to raise the combustion temperature in order to carry out the process to temperature that assures the molecular break of the totality of the toxic substances. <IMAGE>
