Title: Apparatus for feeding waste matter into a plasma  arc furnace to 
produce reusable materials  Document Type and  Number: United States Patent 6380507 
 Link to this Page: http://www.freepatentsonline.com/6380507.html  Abstract: 
Apparatus and a method are disclosed for generating energy  from the 
essentially complete disassociation of organic matter in a  plasma arc furnace 
operating under pyrolytic conditions.  Energy is produced by the disassociation in the 
form of  synthesis gases such as hydrogen and carbon monoxide that can be 
used to  generate electricity, and heat energy from the process and from burning  
the synthesis gasses are also used to generate electricity. In addition,  
inorganic matter that is input to the furnace is rendered  ecologically and 
biologically safe and is extracted from the furnace to be  re-cycled into new uses 
such as insulation and road paving  material. Organic matter, along with 
non-organic matter, is  pre-processed and sized before being input to the plasma 
arc furnace. The  pre-processed matter is fed into a molten silica bath in the 
furnace  through hollow electrodes that are inserted into the silica bath to 
create  the plasma arc. Insertion of the matter through the hollow electrodes  
provides better disassociation of the waste into its basic elements for  
re-use, re-cycling and disposal as ecologically and biologically safe  materials.
