Abstract
A thermal treatment system and method is disclosed for processing organic material. In a first embodiment, the system includes a thermal input device and a reaction device to thermally treat organic material to achieve cell lysing and cell formation, a separation device to separate inert solids from the organic material to produce a liquid stream with low concentrations of suspended solids, and a “high rate” biological treatment device to produce methane from the liquid stream. In a second embodiment, the system includes a pre-thickening device to minimize feed volume by pre-thickening prior to thermal treatment a thermal input device, a reaction device, and a solids separation device to selectively remove dense, inert particles from the thermally treated organic material prior to anaerobic biological treatment, with waste biosolids from anaerobic treatment being recycled to the pre-thickening device.
