The plasma technology creates a very high temperature, between 1000-15,000°C <ref>[https://www.explainthatstuff.com/plasma-arc-recycling.html Plasma Arc Waste Recycling]</ref>, due to a direct current between the anode and cathode of the plasma torch. This extremely high temperature in chamber decomposes the waste and organic and poisonous compounds in milliseconds and so the production of secondary combustion products and polluted gases is avoided. Instead, synthetic gases are produced that are used to generate electricity or can be used in various industries as a substitute for diesel fuels. Minerals are converted into melting residuum/ash for discharge or it can be used in recycling and petrochemical industries<ref name="ref1" />. | The plasma technology creates a very high temperature, between 1000-15,000°C<ref>[https://www.explainthatstuff.com/plasma-arc-recycling.html Plasma Arc Waste Recycling]</ref>, due to a direct current between the anode and cathode of the plasma torch.
