Abstract

Thermal plasma arc systems are being applied to a wide variety of high-temperature applications. The use of electricity is proving to be a cost-effective alternative for the treatment of industrial wastes, recycling of scrap, upgrading of existing metallurgical processes, and new methods for the production of materials. Thermal plasma arc reactors are classified according to; (1) the mode of arc attachment, as nontransferred and transferred: and (2) the site for energy and/or mass transfer, as dispersed phase or condensed phase (bulk, film and packed bed). Unique features in the design of plasma reactor systems and applications in waste treatment and metals production are discussed.
