The process of processing medicinal wastes by plasma methods has been investigated. Thermodynamic calculations of the processing of wastes have been performed using bones of animal origin as an example. Experimental investigations were carried out in a plasma chamber furnace equipped with an electric arc plasmatron of power 30 kW.
