Abstract
The paper presents the results of thermodynamic calculations and experimental studies of plasma processing of biomedical waste and fuel biomass, including waste from the woodworking industry and agriculture, which have shown the promise of using plasma-chemical technology for processing various wastes with production of combustible gas and inert mineral material. Comparison of the experimental results and calculations showed their satisfactory agreement. Both in calculations and in experiments, no harmful impurities were found in the products of plasma processing of the investigated wastes.
