I. Anaerobic Pyrolytic Devolatilization (“Devol”).

In a true anaerobic process, oxygen ingress is absolutely minimized, thus creating a reducing environment that discourages the formation of cancer-causing pollutants such as dioxins and furans that can form in other process environments that encourage stoichiometric combustion, such as in incineration. For C2F, this translates to a naturally cleaner and more environmentally friendly process with less need for emissions control.

II. Reformer

Because certain feedstocks contain more complex carbon chains than others, more energy can be spent breaking down those complex chains than the recoverable energy they produce. By using an entrained flow steam reformer, after the Pyrolytic Devol unit, the thermo-chemical conversion reaction can be more precisely controlled, ensuring that the more complex carbon chains are more efficiently converted into a calorifically superior gaseous output.

III. Continuous Feed and Entrained Flow

When C2F’s continuously fed Anaerobic Pyrolytic Devol unit and Steam Reformer unit are integrated together, they produce a consistent flow of high quality synthetic gas (Syngas”). This SynGas, after additional clean-up steps (to remove sulfur and other contaminants), can be converted into high quality synthetic fuels using a Fischer Tropsch (“FT”) indirect liquefaction process. The C2F process provides a sustainable pathway to consistently produce, high quality renewable energy products and fuels, helping the word transition to a cleaner environment where society is less dependent on the combustion of fossil fuels and other oil producing nations.
