ABSTRACT:
The invention is comprised of an apparatus in form of a single transportable unit, a chamber for the main treatment, with the necessary dimensions to fit the canister drum containing the waste which is to be eliminated, and with the capacity to create and manipulate the direction of the RF plasma flows at a temperature higher than 10.000° K so that it totally surrounds the container, in order to carry out its complete dissociation. The chamber has the capacity to individually collect and select the various materials by species resulting from the dissociation, transporting them by means of the plasma flow generated by an argon gas or other gasses which are injected into the chamber at the far end, where the gas conditioning/separator is situated. This chamber which carries out the main treatment process has embedded antennas which emit the radio frequency which produces and maintains the plasma core and is associated to:a) A robotic unit to load the waste drums/canisters into the main chamber.;b) A RF generator unit;c) A main chamber cooling unit and peripherals;d) Control and monitoring unit of the entire process ande) a power generator with the peripherals to regulate its functionsf) Database for product compatibility/inventoryThe invention extends as well to the method for the elimination of waste.
