METHOD OF PROCESSING RUBBER AND HIGH-MOLECULAR WEIGHT PETROLEUM PRODUCTS Russian patent published in 2006 - IPC C08J11/04 C08J11/20 C10G1/10 C10G15/08 

FIELD: environmental protection.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to technology of processing of rubber and petroleum processing and petrochemistry wastes and can be used to solve environmental and fuel-and-power problems. High-molecular weight petroleum products such as spent lubrication oils, mazuts, purified oil-slimes, goudrons, and mixtures thereof are first supplied to activation unit to be exposed to acoustic and electromagnetic waves. Activated petroleum products are then passed to petroleum product destruction reactor. Fractioned rubber is exposed to superheated steam and also to a part of destroyed petroleum products at 500-600°C in rubber destruction reactor. Light gaseous hydrocarbons formed in this process are burned in steam generator while released heat is used in petroleum product destruction reactor. Solid rubber destruction products are separated in separator. Liquid rubber destruction products are supplied to activation unit to be used in petroleum product destruction stage.

EFFECT: reduced environmental impact.
