(US5310411-A)      Combustible pollutants and waste materials are transformed into energy and usable products by introducing the material into a disgregator (1) in which a thermic lance (23) operates at a temp. of more than 1600 deg.C in an airless atmos. to decompose the material and extract gaseous products based on H2 and CO, non-combustible gaseous products and inert products. Gases are cooled with water, generating steam, and pass through a filter thermoreactor (4) at more than 200 deg.C filled with carbonaceous mass, producing CO and H2.    ADVANTAGE -   Clean energy and utilisable products.    (SU1811535-A3)      Combustible pollutants or waste materials are efficiently converted into useful products, without dangerous emissions. The device and process consists of first totally decomposing waste material in an airless atmosphere by a thermic lance, followed by cooling the decomposition products and sepg. the inert products with water to generate steam, reacting the gases with coke, and recovering hydrogen, carbon monoxide and other useful products. The waste is converted into products that find use in a wide range of industries.    USE/ADVANTAGE -   The device is intended to be used for the disposal of urban, industrial & agricultural waste aggregates of all types, particularly solid waste materials, black liquor sludge, and the process and machine offers advantages concerning i) energy production, ii) recovery of secondary materials, iii) pollution, iv) efficiency.
