FIELD: power industry.
SUBSTANCE: method of flash-pyrolysis of hydrocarbon materials using induction heating involves introduction of hydrocarbon materials into cylindrical reactor, located in electromagnetic field of inductor connected to balanced output generator, flash-pyrolysis of hydrocarbon materials during its movement along reactor housing using screw conveyor under impact of heat emitted by reactor housing, separation and collection of liquid, gaseous and solid products of pyrolysis. The device includes a loading unit, cylindrical pyrolised reactor with screw conveyor located inside coil inductor coils, units of separation, cooling and collection of pyrolysis products. Loading unit is designed with possibility of its connection to pyrolised reactor in alignment with or perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of reactor, housing of pyrolised reactor is made conductive with Curie-point above 450°C. As an inductor there used is a zoned inductor, and dimensions of reactor housing and screw conveyor is selected to perform the following ratios: K1=(D-d)/2=(0.5÷2) mm; K2=h/L=0.1÷0.2; K3=L/d=2.4÷0.8, where D is the internal diameter of reactor, d is the diameter of screw, h is the height of cam screw, L is the pitch of screw.
EFFECT: minimising energy consumption during treatment of low-value natural and human-made refuse.
