<p>A process and apparatus for the treatment of refuse having a predominantly carbonaceous matrix in which the refuse is gasified to combustible gas by reaction with steam within an electric arc discharge in the substantial absence of oxygen and/or nitrogen; the refuse intended to be supplied for gasification has a metered quantity of water added thereto and before supply to the gasification stage is subject to compression to achieve a substantial removal of air and to bring the water contained in it to a superheated state, and then subjected to decompression to transform the superheated water contained in it to steam.</p> |
