Abstract
Abstract : This report provides a background which discusses the waste generation on Navy ships, regulatory and congressional requirements related to Navy shipboard waste, thermal treatment of Navy waste, and how plasma arc technology is applied to waste treatment. It provides a description of the development of the plasma arc research facility at NRL and the experimental and theoretical modeling that was conducted at NRL from 1995 to 1998. These include modeling and experiments conducted on the voltage/current relationships for plasma torches, optical emission studies of both transferred arc and non-transferred arc torches, plasma torch chemistry, slag formation from Navy solid waste, molten slag motion under pitch and roll, and radiation heat transfer from a non-transferred plasma torch to a cold metal wall. Finally, this report provides a discussion of future work and provides appendices with detailed calculations and data.
