Plasma Gasification

 

Overview

What is plasma?

Plasma is the fourth state of matter.
Plasma is an ionised gas that exists in nature in a lightning bolt or in the aurora borealis.
Plasma is produced and harnessed in industry through plasma torches.
Plasma torches create extremely high energy fields with temperatures as high as 10,000°C
Plasma provides the most effective medium to completely dissociate all organic components within the waste feedstock into their
 
elemental compounds, to melt inorganic constituents into a vitrified matrix or a reduced molten metal for recovery and recycling.
   
Key Features of Plasma Gasification

Process :-

Enables the complete recycling and recovery of mixed/diverse fuel feedstock.
No emissions of harmful gases, liquids or solids and without residues requiring landfilling.
Produces competitively priced renewable fuel, creating valuable an alternative energy fuel resource, thus offsetting the equivalent
 
amount of fossil fuels and its associated price volatility.
The process is created in a plasma reactor, comprising of one or more plasma arc torches.
Creates an extremely high temperature environment ranging in temperature from 5,000° to 10,000°C.
Breaks down toxic compounds within milliseconds, avoiding the formation of secondary combustion products and the production of
 
polluting flue gas.
Reforms organic compounds into Synthesis Gas, whereas inorganic compounds melts into a molten slag and are subsequently cooled
 
to form a vitrified inert non-leaching slag (VINS) which have may uses in construction and property development.
The process is controlled in a sub-stoichiometric condition, an oxygen-starved environment in the reactor.
It is NOT an incineration nor a combustion process.
