The paper contains discussions of several innovative thermal processes for treating or destroying hazardous wastes. Processes discussed can be included in the categories wet oxidation, molten glass, fluidized bed incineration, pyrolysis, molten salt, electric reactors, and plasma systems. The subject processes are among those new processes generating interest in the field of hazardous management technology. Information in the paper is from the USEPA report Innovative Thermal Hazardous Waste Treatment Processes prepared by the author in February, 1985.
