Method for processing waste or biomass material
First Claim
1. Method for processing waste or biomass material, characterized in that(a) the waste or biomass material is subjected to a pyrolysis at a temperature of 350-650°
- C., advantageously 450-550°
C.;
(b) the gas released in the course of the pyrolysis is subjected--without condensation--to a cracking treatment at a temperature of 1100-1600°
C., advantageously 1200-1400°
C., under the influence of oxygen-rich gas introduced from outside and possibly of steam;
(c) the residue liberated in the course of the pyrolysis is gasified under a pressure of 0.5-1.5 bar, advantageously 0.8-1.2 bar, at a temperature of 1200-1700°
C., advantageously 1400-1600°
C., and is volatilized or, as the case may be, fused under reducing conditions;
(d) the fused slag or metal concentrate obtained under stage (c) is discharged or, as the case may be, recovered;
(e) the product gases obtained in the course of stages (b) and (c) are combined or not combined and then subjected to gas cleaning.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for processing waste or biomass material into valuable products such as, for example, combustible gases, which is characterized in that
(a) the waste or biomass material is subjected to a pyrolysis at a temperature of 350-650° C., advantageously 450-550° C.;
(b) the gas released in the course of the pyrolysis is subjected--without condensation--to a cracking treatment at a temperature of 1100-1600° C., advantageously 1200-1400° C., under the influence of oxygen-rich gas introduced from outside and possibly of steam;
(c) the residue liberated in the course of the pyrolysis is gasified under a pressure of 0.5-1.5 bar, advantageously 0.8-1.2 bar, at a temperature of 1200-1700° C., advantageously 1400-1600° C., and is volatilized or, as the case may be, fused under reducing conditions;
(d) the fused slag or metal concentrate obtained under stage (c) is discharged or, as the case may be, recovered;
(e) the product gases obtained in the course of stages (b) and (c) are combined or not combined and then subjected to gas cleaning.
