  • Detoxification apparatus and method for toxic waste using an energy beam and electrolysis
    Patent number: 5126020
    Abstract: Detoxification apparatus for disposing of toxic waste material by incineration includes a closed reactive vessel (3) having an inlet (5) and an outlet (7). Waste material is introduced into the vessel in a fluid state and a laser (19) or other energy beam produces a high energy beam within the vessel. The waste material passes through the beam and the beam energy creates very high temperatures within the material that incinerates or ionizes the toxic waste. The detoxified material is electrolyzed and removed from the vessel for further processing.
