Abstract
In a processing apparatus, a processing furnace includes a supply port configured to receive a processing target and a discharge port configured to discharge a residue. A temperature control region controls a temperature of an intermediate part between the supply port and the discharge port. A screw rotates to be able to convey the processing target supplied from the supply port toward the discharge port. A first decomposition region includes a first recovery port configured to recover a first fluid obtained by decomposing the processing target in a predetermined region in the intermediate part from the processing furnace. A second decomposition region includes a second recovery port configured to recover, from the processing furnace, a second fluid obtained by decomposing the processing target on the downstream side of the first decomposition region.
