The invention relates to cremation of dead bodies of humans or animals by plasma-chemical destruction method. A mobile crematorium includes a chassis bearing a reactor implemented as a closed cavity with an opening for placing dead bodies of humans or animals to be cremated into the reactor, and to close the reactor after that, and also with an opening for outputting gaseous products. The crematorium additionally includes a source of high-voltage pulses, that is connected to an electrode protruding into the reactor via an isolating member, wherein inner surfaces of the reactor cavity are made conductive entirely or partially and a gap is provided between the inner surfaces and the electrode, the gap assuring generation of corona discharge plasma in the reactor due to the high-voltage pulses.

The invention relates to methods of disposing household waste, in particular, to methods of disposing waste with low content of water by plasma-chemical destruction. The invention is directed to attaining a technical effect of broadening range of technical solutions by providing a method of destruction of organic waste with low content of water. The technical effect is attained by a destruction method, where organic waste with low content of water is loaded into a reactor via an input opening, and waste of biological origin is loaded additionally. The reactor is provided in form of a closed cavity, which inner surface is made conductive entirely or partially and grounded. An electrode protrudes into the reactor, which is isolated from the grounded surface. High-voltage pulses are supplied to the electrode. The pulses cause formation of corona discharge streamers in a gap between the electrode and the conductive surface of the reactor.

Electrostatic frictional generator has a movable member in form of flow of substance particles. The generator is a hollow cylinder and with a flow of air with substance particles along the cylinder surface. Materials of the cylinder and the substance are selected to provide induction of opposite electric charges on cylinder surface and on the substance particles due to friction of the substance particle flow against the cylinder surface. An electrode and a current collector connected to a load are located along axis of the cylinder with a gap between them. Means for providing the flow of air with substance particles has reflecting screens located in upper and lower portions of the cylinder, configured to repel flows of air with substance particles, and an axial fan located under the upper reflecting screen, which takes in air and has blades of smaller diameter than inner diameter of the cylinder.

Microwave plasma slowing system for a plasma shutter comprises a waveguide-band transmission for interconnection of the system with a generator, and for letting waves from the generator into the plasma shutter, a bridge band interconnected with the waveguide-band transmission, two parallel band waistlines, interconnected by its one end with the bridge band, where the band waistlines are flat plates, where one of its sides is provided with tenons arranged side by side along the axis of the band waistlines with orientation in a such way, that the tenons arranged on the one side of the first band waistline placed in turns between the tenons arranged on the one side of the second band waistline, where the band waistlines are provided at the other end by mutually separated lockable electromagnetic oscillators.

A material conversion apparatus includes: (a) a housing, (b) a chamber for treating the material disposed within the housing, (c) an induction coil surrounding the chamber and (d) means for exhausting or evacuating the treated content of the chamber.

Provided is a cyclonic plasma melting furnace. A melting furnace chamber body includes an inlet through which waste is input and an outlet through which air or gas is discharged. The outlet is provided in a direction opposite to the inlet. At least one plasma torch is provided on the melting furnace chamber body so as to be inclined at a predetermined angle with respect to a direction in which the air or the gas is discharged through the outlet.

A method of generating syngas as a primary product from renewable feedstock, fossil fuels, or hazardous waste with the use of a cupola. The cupola operates selectably on inductive heat alone, chemically assisted heat, or plasma assisted heat. Additionally, the operation of the cupola is augmented by the use of direct acting carbon or graphite rods that carry electrical current for additional heat generation into the metal bath that is influenced by the inductive element. The method includes the steps of providing a cupola for containing a metal bath; and operating an inductive element to react with the metal bath. Feedstock in the form of a combination of fossil fuel, a hazardous waste, and a hazardous material is supplied to the cupola. A plasma torch operates on the metal bath selectably directly and indirectly. Steam, air, oxygen enriched air, and oxygen are supplied in selectable combinations.

Disclosed is a plasma torch with a structure capable of performing reversed polarity/straight polarity operation, wherein the plasma torch is coupled to a melter and melts a waste material such as radioactive waste or industrial waste by generating and sustaining a plasma arc between electrodes, the plasma torch including: a rear electrode provided inside a torch pipe and electrically connected to become one of an anode and a cathode; and a front electrode provided at a front end of the torch pipe at a position adjacent to a front end of the rear electrode and electrically connected to become a remaining one of the anode and the cathode, wherein electrical connections of the rear and front electrodes are switchable with each other so that the plasma torch operates as a reversed polarity plasma torch or a straight polarity plasma torch.
