ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for incinerating waste material and in particular, for incinerating particulate material resulting from the shredding of vehicles. The particulate material is fed to one end of a rotary drum, and is subjected in the drum to pyrolitic incineration in the absence of air, to generate combustible gases and a solid residue. The combustion gases and the residue are discharged from the drum to a discharge hood, where the solid residue is separated from the gases. The gases are then passed through a condenser to cool the gases to a temperature below 212.degree. F. to thereby condense water vapor and higher boiling point hydrocarbon gases to produce hydrocarbon liquid. The condensed water vapor and hydrocarbon liquid are separated from the lower boiling point hydrocarbon gases in a liquid-gas separator and the condensed water vapor and hydrocarbon liquid are discharged into a tank of water, where the hydrocarbon liquid will form a layer on the top of the water, and can subsequently be removed, while the lower boiling point hydrocarbon gases can be discharged to an afterburner to provide complete combustion of the combustible material in the gas.
