ABSTRACT An apparatus for the decomposition of hazardous material utilizing a DC arc, comprising: a gas-tight chamber including a sump which contains a molten bath; inlet means for introducing the hazardous material into the chamber and the molten bath for initial decomposition of the hazardous material into a product within the molten bath and a gaseous product within the chamber; electrode means for maintaining a DC arc within the chamber, the arc having a current level sufficient to promote the decomposition of the hazardous material; exhaust means within the chamber proximate to the DC arc for the removal of gases from the chamber, whereby the gaseous product passes in the proximity of the arc for undergoing decomposition prior to removal thereof through the exhaust means; and means for maintaining a molten bath at a predetermined depth including a container for receiving material from the molten bath; conduit means communicating between the molten bath and the container for the passage of molten material from the molten bath to the container; and means for sealing the conduit means to block the flow of molten material from the molten bath to the container and to maintain the chamber in its gas-tight condition, wherein the container is positioned beside the chamber and the conduit means extends through a side wall of the chamber.
