Title: Innovations of Edgar J Robert
Introduction
Edgar J Robert is a notable inventor based in Glenshaw, PA (US), recognized for his contributions to the field of synthetic gas production and waste processing. With a total of six patents to his name, he has developed innovative methods and equipment that address significant challenges in these industries.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is the "Electric Arc Gasifier Method and Equipment." This invention provides a method for producing synthetic gas using an electric arc-activated, non-catalytic burner. The process utilizes up to three streams of product inputs, where a primary spray is heated by an electric arc formed between two electrodes. A secondary spray is then injected and mixed with the heated primary fluid, resulting in a high-temperature, high-pressure mixture combined with a tertiary spray, an oxidant. This invention overcomes the limitations of existing processes, such as low conversion efficiency and the need for pure oxygen or catalysts. It offers a more efficient synthetic gas production process with low capital investment and low-cost consumables.
Another significant patent is the "Electric Arc Gasifier as a Waste Processor." This invention adapts to the variable chemical components of waste products by utilizing mobile and fixed electrodes. Waste is injected into a heating chamber and broken down into elemental components that can be recycled. The primary injection is heated by an electric arc, and a secondary fluid consisting of waste and a carrier gas is mixed with the heated primary fluid. The high-temperature plasma formed by the electric arc allows for efficient waste processing and recovery of high-value metals.
