An experimental plant for optimization of production regimes for the pyrolysis of biomass and wastes of organogenic origin with an output of 500 kg/day is proposed. All equipment of the plant is grouped in a single production module. Processes involving catalytic pyrolysis of peat and refined products of used truck tires are tested on the plant for the production of gaseous fuel. The experimental industrial tests demonstrate the plant’s high efficiency, and the expediency of catalytic pyrolysis for utilization of organogenic wastes.
