DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS COMBUSTION OF COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL IN A PYROLYTIC CHAMBER
The present invention relates to a device (1) for combustion of a combustible material, com-prising, inner walls (3) and outer walls (4), creating a double wall space (15) in between, which double wall space is provided with at least one primary air inlet (8), a top wall (17) having at least one top opening (10), an inclined tubular means (2), which tubular means (2) further comprises an inlet (5) for the combustible material in the upper part of the in-clined tubular means (2), an inlet cover (51), a pyrolytic chamber (6) located on the inside of the inner wall (3) of the tubular means, an outlet (7) in the lower part of the inclined tubular means, and an outlet cover (72), and wherein the double wall space (15) comprises a secondary air distribution zone (9) for distribution of hot air and facilitating mixing of py-rolytic gases, leading to a combustion zone (11), and a flame zone (12), adjacent to the top opening, and wherein at least one of the inner walls (3) comprises through holes (13) to let hot air flow into the secondary air distribution zone (9). A method for combustion of a bio-logical material in a device according to the invention is also described, and further collect-ing biochar from the device.
