plasma arc converter

A Plasma Arc plant can occupy as little as 1 acre of land. The plant's converter is contained in a 10,000 square foot building and has minimal moving parts. Our plant is capable of processing all types of waste without the need for segregation at the source of generation, thereby saving time and specialized manpower. Waste is delivered in sealed containers which are fed directly into the Plasma Arc reactor. Handling of the waste is minimal, a crucial safety factor for personnel working at both the waste generating facility and the plant.

From start to finish, waste destruction in the Plasma Arc reactor occurs at 10,000ºF (5,500ºC), a temperature at which all substances are molecularly disassociated. This temperature surpasses the Center for Disease Control and Environmental Protection Agency destruction temperature standards, thus allowing the Plasma Arc plant to meet all federal, state and local standards. Furthermore, all waste is electronically tracked from generator to disposal. After destruction, waste generators are issued a Certificate of Destruction that severs the generator from all cradle-to-grave environmental liability.

We design plants in cohorts consisting of sets of machines, each with an up to 500 ton per day destruction capacity. This plant configuration allows for one machine to be down in a maintenance cycle while the remaining machines are running at full capacity.
