Abstract
Plasma technology utilised in power engineering can be divided to: I. High temperature plasma technology. The development of experimental equipment for decomposing the toxic compounds that arise in the pyrolysis or combustion of PCB oils, plastics and other dangerous wastes, by subsequently raising the combustion temperature above the threshold for dissociation of toxic gas molecules. The design of experimental dissociation chamber plant, rated at 100 kg/hour of dangerous waste is presented. II. Low temperature plasma technology is one of the possibilities how to replace efficiently noble fuels (mazut or gas) used for the start-up and stabilization of power stations and utilization in the incineration plants. The output 320 kVA of plasma generator and temperature 6 000 oC for the boiler is sufficient. The operating costs of plasma ignition of coal powders are significantly lower than the start-up of boiler with mazut, and/or the start-up or stabilization with the use of gas. These conclusions have been fully confirmed and verified.
