Thermolysis or thermal decomposition (destruction)
Thermolysis or thermal decomposition (destruction) is the thermal
decomposition of waste under the influence of temperature without access to
oxygen. Thermolysis (thermal decomposition) occurs as a result of the cleavage
of one or more covalent bonds in a molecule of a chemical compound. As a
result, free radicals, ions are formed, and will useful steam-gas, liquid and solid
carbon-containing products of other chemicals were obtained.Pyrolysis – thermal
destruction – is the decomposition of organic compounds at temperatures from
1112 to 1652 ° F without oxygen in a reactor of a special configuration. The
process of thermal destruction is characterized by a high rate of impact on the
raw material, as a result of which its explosive “boiling” occurs, accompanied by
the transition of the main part of the substance into a gaseous state.
