Description:
Ten innovative technologies for thermally destroying hazardous wastes were selected and described in this paper. hese technologies were either supported by EPA's RCRA or SARA programs or developed by industry since 1980. wo of the important criteria used in selecting these technologies are that they are (or had been) at least at the stage of pilot-scale demonstration and appear to be promising in terms of destruction effectiveness. he 10 technologies are: xygen-Enriched Incineration, Westinghouse/O'Connor Combustor, Fluidized Bed Combustion, Circulating Bed Combustion, Molten Salt Combustion, Infrared System, Advanced Electrical Reactor, Plasma Arc, Met Air Oxidation and Supercritical Fluid.
