A pyrolysis plant processes organic waste to manufacture biocarbon pellets, and more specifically to manufacture activated biocarbon pellets by slow pyrolysis. The process to produce the pellets involves using biocarbon powder, bio-oil, and pyroligneous acid produced from the pyrolysis plant to provide an improved activated biocarbon pellet. The activated biocarbon pellet comprises a biocarbon powder blended with a bio-oil at a ratio of 5% to 35% with a moisture content of 8% or less and a ball-pan hardness of greater than 90.
A62D 3/40 - Processes for making harmful chemical substances harmless, or less harmful, by effecting a chemical change in the substances by heating to effect chemical change, e.g. by pyrolysis
The present disclosure includes a process for pelletizing a spent bleaching earth (SBE) into a clay-biocarbon composite including classifying the SBE based on at least one parameter of the SBE, selecting at least one filler compound and mixing the at least one filler compound with the SBE to make a mixture, forming a plurality of pellets out of the mixture, and pyrolyzing the pellets to produce the clay-biocarbon composite. Pyrolyzing a pelleted spent bleaching earth (SBE) may include advancing the pelleted SBE with a distributer to a first thermal chamber for providing even thermal processing, releasing the pelleted SBE to an auger to cool to room temperature, and condensing at least one volatile compound emitted from the pelleted SBE during thermal processing to produce a condensate for reuse.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PELLETIZING SPENT BLEACHING EARTH
The present disclosure includes a process for pelletizing a spent bleach earth (SBE) into a clay-biocarbon composite including classifying the SBE based on at least one parameter of the SBE, selecting at least one filler compound and mixing the at least one filler compound with the SBE to make a rnixture, forming a plurality of pellets out of the mixture, and pyrolyzing the pellets to produce the clay-biocarbon composite. Pyrolyzing a pelleted spent bleach earth (SBE) may include advancing the pelleted SBE with a distributer to a first thermal chamber for providing even thermal processing, releasing the pelleted SBE to a second auger to cool to room temperature, and condensing at least one volatile compound emitted from the pelleted SBE during thermal processing to produce a condensate for reuse.
