Classification: CPC C  Y | IPC C

Claim 0:
1. A method of using a biochar processor, comprising:
delivering organic material to a pyrolysis reactor tube disposed in a biochar processor interior space divided into a first combustion chamber fluidically connected to a second combustion chamber;
initially heating the organic material delivered to the pyrolysis reactor tube;
generating a flow of synthesis gas or pyrolysis oils from the organic material, the flow egresses from the pyrolysis reactor tube through a plurality of vents disposed in spaced apart relation between a pyrolysis reactor tube first end and a pyrolysis reactor tube second end;
directing the flow of synthesis gas or pyrolysis oils through a vent tube surrounding the plurality of vents directly to a first combustion chamber vent tube outlet in the first combustion chamber and directly to a second combustion chamber vent tube outlet in the second combustion chamber;
combusting synthesis gases or volatile pyrolysis oil received directly from the flow of synthesis gas or pyrolysis oils in the first combustion chamber and the second combustion chamber;
moving the organic material in the pyrolysis reactor tube from the pyrolysis reactor tube first end toward the pyrolysis reactor tube second end;
heating the organic material moving through the pyrolysis reactor tube with heat from combustion of the synthetic gases or the volatile pyrolysis oils in the first and second combustion chambers; and
continuously producing biochar from the biochar processor.
