Westinghouse Plasma Corporation

Description

• Westinghouse Plasma Corporation started the development of its plasma technology in support of NASA's manned space shuttle program back in the 1960's. Westinghouse Plasma Corporation has been dedicated to the research and development (R&D) of its plasma technology for over 30 years with an estimated 100 million dollars in investments.Westinghouse plasma technology has been used for three decades in iron-melting foundries, steel mills, metals recycling, catalyst re-forming, and in the heating of blast furnaces. The plasma gasification technology has been used to convert waste into energy since 2002, and is commercially proven. Today, Westinghouse Plasma Corporation leads the world in converting waste into clean energy through its advanced plasma gasification technology.Plasma is a high temperature, ionized, conductive gas created within a plasma torch. Plasma is created by the interaction of the gas with an electric arc. This interaction dissociates the gas into electrons and ions, enabling the gas to become both thermally and electrically conductive. The conductive property of the ionized gas in the arc region provides a way to transfer energy from the arc to the incoming process gas, and in turn, to the furnace. This plasma state will exist in the immediate confines of the arc within the torch. As the gas exits the torch, it is recombined into its neutral state, although it still maintains its superheated properties.Westinghouse Plasma Corporation core values are built on continuous R&D and innovation. These values guide the company by focusing on finding new applications in the treatment of different types of waste, new product development of the plasma systems, and the ongoing support of projects using these technologies.Westinghouse Plasma Corporation continues to evolve through its R&D efforts by refining its core technology, advancing sustainable energy development solutions, and by making the environment cleaner, and better for everyone.
