Method for treatment of fluid hazardous, organic waste materials, where a
plasma of 2000-5000° C. temperature is generated by means of an
electric arc in a
plasma generator, the
plasma torch is directed into a reactor, the reactor consists of three zones (4A, 4B, 4C), the
plasma torch being introduced downwards into the uppermost first zone (4A), the fluid waste (1) being sprayed into the
plasma torch in the first zone (4A), where it is heated to a temperature range of 1300-1600° C., the mixture of the plasma and the waste is introduced into the second zone (4B) of the reactor, where an oxidizing material is added (5) to the mixture, the
combustion gas produced in the second zone (4B) is then led into the third zone (4C) of the reactor, where it is cooled rapidly by water spraying to a temperature range of 120-160° C., the cooled
combustion gas is removed from the third zone (4C) of the reactor is led into a cooler. The
plasma torch is generated from the mixture of
carbon dioxide and
oxygen, the oxidizing material introduced into the second zone (4B) of the reactor is a mixture of
carbon dioxide and
oxygen. Subsequently the
water content of the
combustion gas is separated by condensing and is removed and the residual combustion gas is removed.
