PLASMA PYROLYSIS SYSTEM AND PROCESS FOR THE DISPOSAL OF WASTE USING GRAPHITE PLASMA TORCH

摘要

A plasma pyrolysis device is provided for dispensing-off a variety of waste materials. The device has two metallic chambers, a plasma torch, a number of electrodes, means to provide air and means for transfer of pyrolysed gases, a feeder, scrubber and control circuits. The process for carrying out pyrolysis, under oxygen starved environment, is also provided. The process is optimized to operate at extremely low power levels. The device is energy efficient, simple in construction and cost- effective.
