Heated Airlock 61 Feeder allows for the continuous feeding of solid, shredded plastic = 53 into a reactor tube surrounded by clamshell burner boxes. Inside of = 61 the reactor tube, two augers, one with right hand flights and one with = 63 left hand flights are welded to smooth augers to create two continu- ous augers that push solid plastic material, liquid plastic material and 59 molten plastic material through two small holes. As the plastic is in its _ = _ 58 ; molten state while being forced through the two small holes, an airlock = 51 is formed preventing air form entering the system. As the solid, shred- =sn vl a 1 52 ' W'.\". ded plastic is fed into the system, an airlock is formed allowing for the = — - continuous feeding of the system.
