Claim 1
Independent Claim
192 words
A METHOD FOR CONVERTING HALOGENATE ORGANIC MATERIALS INTO NORMALLY GASEOUS PRODUCTS COMPRISING CARBON DIOXIDE AND HYDROGEN HALIDE, WHICH COMPRISES INTIMATELY ADMIXING A HALOGENATED ORGANIC MATERIAL AND A GASEOUS MEDIUM SELECTEDFROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF GASEOUS OXYGEN SOURCES AND MIXTURES THEREOF, SAID OXYGEN SOURCES BEING SELECTED FROM THE GOUP CONSISTING OF STEAM, OXYGEN AND AIR AND SAID HYDROGEN SOURCES BEING SELECTED FROM THE GROUP CONSISTING OF HYDROGEN, HYDROCARBON AND STEAM PASSING THE RESULTING MIXTURE, UNDER PRESSURE, THROUGH A CONSTRICTED ZONE INTO AN EXPANDED ZONE, EFFECTING ATOMIZATION OF THE MIXTURE AS IT PASSES INTO THE EXPANDED ZONE, AND INTRODUCING THE RESULTING ATOMIZED MIXTURE INTO A COMBUSTION ZONE WITH THE AMOUNT OF GASEOUS MEDIUM INTRODUCED INTO THE COMBUSTION ZONE BEING AT LEAST THAT WHICH IS SUFFICIENT TO CONVERT THE HALOGEN CONTENT OF THE HALOGENATED ORGANIC MATERIAL TO HYDROGEN HALIDE AND CONVERT THE CARBON CONTENT OF THE HALOGENATED ORGANIC MATERIAL TO CARBON DIOXIDE, THE COMBUSTION ZONE BEING MAINTAINED AT A TEMPERATURE HIGH ENOUGH TO EFFECT SUCH CONVERSIONS TO OBTAIN SUBSTANTIALLY COMPLETE COMBUSTION OF THE MIXTURE TO A PRODUCT COMPRISING CARBON DIOXIDE AND A HYDROGEN HALIDE AND CONTAINING SUBSTANTIALLY NO FREE HALOGEN, FREE CARBON AND ORGANIC COMPOUNDS.
