Claims
- 1. A vertical dry distillation retort of internal heating type for the disposal of rubber wastes for recovering valuable substances contained therein comprising:
- a. a vertical dry distillation retort body having an upper portion with a substantially cylindrical shape, and a lower portion which is trapezoidal in shape, said retort having an inlet means at the top of the upper cylindrical portion for feeding shredded rubber waste blocks to be treated and a dry distillation gas outlet means in the upper portion thereof, said lower portion forming an outlet hopper means for discharging dry distillation residue from said retort,
- b. a conical hood means connected to said gas outlet means and disposed in the center of the upper portion of said retort to uniformly disperse the rubber blocks to be treated in said retort while appropriately sizing the rubber blocks to be treated according to the block size to, thereby, make the temperature distribution in said retort uniform, and to suck off the generated dry distillation gas,
- c. means for feeding a hot heating gas for dry distillation disposed in the lower peripheral wall of said upper portion inside said retort body to uniformly jet and feed the hot gas for dry distillation in the form of a thin layer laterally toward the center of said retort, said feed means comprising a feed ring and a hot gas guide means attached to said lower peripheral wall with said guide means located above said feed ring,
- d. a dry distillation residue receiver means rotatably mounted on a base and connected in a water-sealed fashion to said outlet hopper,
- e. a screw conveyer means provided with a vertical shaft, which extends from the bottom of said residue receiver through said hopper means to a lower central section of the upper portion of said retort body to discharge the dry distillation residue out of said retort body into said residue receiver means,
- f. a cone member fixedly mounted on the top of said screw conveyer means to make the residence time of the rubber blocks in said retort uniform and to increase the dry distillation efficiency, and
- g. a discharge chute means for discharging said dry distillation residue, fixed to the lower portion of said retort body, which chute extends in said residue receiver means from the lower inside edge thereof to the upper inside edge thereof while being in contact with the inner peripheral surface of said rotating residue receiver means.
