    Abstract: Plastic conversion vessels such as pyrolytic reactors convert plastic waste materials such as polymers, or hydrocarboneous material, or both, via in situ chemical reactions comprising cracking, recombination, reforming, recracking, and the like, to usable chemical compounds such as naphtha, diesel fuel, heavy oil, wax, and the like. Inherent within the polymers and/or carbonaceous material are generally solid, inert residues such as various fillers, pigments, flame retardants, silica, aluminum, talc, glass, clay, and so forth. Such solid inert residues (SIR) must be treated to remove residual volatile organic material therefrom in order to meet acceptable environmental standards and/or limits. A heated dryer for treating the SIR comprises heating units to remove excessive volatile organic material therefrom as when moved along a conveyor that transfers said material to a collection area. The collection area comprises one or more pistons that are capable of compacting and discharging said SIR material. Another collection area embodiment comprises a plurality of plungers that transfer the SIR material from said collection area to a plunger collection area, and subsequently to a collection container.

    Abstract: A reinforced thermoplastic pipe having a polymeric barrier layer formed about a longitudinal axis; at least one first non-metallic reinforcement layer configured to carry an internal pressure load surrounding the polymeric barrier layer; at least one second non-metallic reinforcement layer configured to carry an axial load surrounding the at least one first reinforcement layer; and a polymeric cover layer surrounding the at least one second reinforcement layer. At least one of the first or second reinforcement layers is braided. In some embodiments, the lay angles of the first and second reinforcement layers are selected to reduce the axial compression force in the pipe in a constrained application. In another embodiment, an interior helical metallic layer around which the polymeric barrier layer is formed, the interior layer being an interlocked metallic carcass, a flat helically wound strip or a helically wound wire.
