Recycling of Organic Waste in a Plasma Reactor

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

Thermodynamic calculations and experiments on plasma gasification of wood waste have been conducted. On the basis of a verified TERRA universal thermodynamic-calculation program, the authors have conducted an experiment on plasma recycling of agricultural waste. No detrimental impurities were found in the products of plasma recycling.
