Aerosol Collector and Pyrolyser (ACP)

During descent, the GC/MS also analyzed pyrolysis products (i.e., samples altered by heating) passed to it from the Aerosol Collector Pyrolyser.

AEA's tyre pyrolyser uses high temperatures and an oxygen-free environment to decompose tyres chemically, giving a cheaper process which has lower emissions of nitrogen-oxide and sulphur-oxide than incineration.

Finally, a truck equipped with a pyrolyzer can move from place to place to pyrolyze biomass.

Oil vapors are collected from the pyrolyzer.

From the fluidized bed mixer oil shale moves downward to the packed-bed pyrolyzer.

For typical inputs, the energy required to run a "fast" pyrolyzer is approximately 15% of the energy that it outputs.
