ABSTRACT:
This disclosure relates to a processor comprising means (10,11,12,110,111,112) for mixing a process material with a process liquid (13,113) (such as water) and forming an emulsion or slurry. Means (17,18,21,24,117,120,230,420) is provided for pressuring (16,26,116,126) and heating (61,36,173,227) the slurry, and the slurry is then fed to means (28,128,320,420) for reducing the pressure (27,127) to the slurry or emulsion and for further increasing the temperature (33,227) of the slurry or emulsion. The drop in pressure and increase in temperature causes components of the slurry or emulsion to convert to gases and separate from the remainder of the slurry or emulsion which is removed from the processor in the form of solids (32,132). The gas is fed to one or more condensers (10,63,64,65,177,178) which separate the gas into useful liquids such as various grades of oil.
