The present invention provides a heat treatment system, which includes a
treatment chamber having an input port and a discharge port for charging
and discharging materials to be treated. A heating system including a
plurality of pipe-like heaters positioned one after another in serial
arrangement is provided so that the heating temperature is gradually
increased for heating the steam or the atomized water introduced from the
water feeding system into the heaters by applying voltage on the heaters
to turn the steam and the atomized water to superheated steam, and for
performing heat treatment on the materials to be treated by injecting the
superheated steam into the treatment chamber. A circulating system is
provided for sucking the superheated steam and the dry distillation gas
in the treatment chamber and for supplying the steam and the gas again
into the treatment chamber after deodorizing and filtering, and a control
unit is provided for controlling operating conditions such as supply
quantity of the steam, duration of treatment, etc.
