A method and a device for the thermal decomposition of an initial material, in particular, for the decomposition of meat and bone meal, oil sludges, for example, from cleaning tankers, autofluff, basic glycerin, for example, from biodiesel production, paint sludges from paint shops, contaminated soils, coated wood, and plastics such as plexiglass. The tensioning strap, from the finger tip to the anchor point, is held adjacent the glove lining by one or more transverse support straps so when placed on the hand and with tension applied to the tensioning strap, the tensioning strap is held or forced by the transverse support straps toward and substantially adjacent the bowler’s finger and palm. An air flow source lifts and accelerates the flow of leaves and particles to a speed at which the leaves and particles are separated. The color synthesis module, implemented in digital electronic circuitry, includes a radial distortion correction module and a synthesis module.
