    摘要: A thermal cracking treatment train, comprising: a rotatable kiln reactor; the rotatable kiln reactor being configured to receive a polymeric feed material, the reactor defining at least one interior wall that bounds an interior volume of the reactor, the interior volume defining an entrance and an exit along a direction of feed material travel, the rotatable kiln reactor comprising a section that comprises one or more sweeping features configured to sweep, with rotation of the kiln, a portion of the at least one interior wall, the kiln comprising a section that comprises one or more lifter features extending from the at least one interior wall and configured to, with rotation of the kiln, encourage material disposed on the one or more features to fall into the interior volume of the interior kiln; a combustor configured to provide a heated gas to the rotatable kiln reactor; and a devolatilization train.
