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, wherein the inlet means comprises a multi-sealed passage having a closable entry port for access outside the chamber and a closable exit port providing communication inside the chamber, the passage further including closable partition means between the entry port and the exit port for dividing the passage into a first compartment adjacent the entry port and a second compartment adjacent the edit port, the sealed passage operating such that hazardous material is introduced into the first compartment with the partition means closed, the hazardous material passing from the first compartment into the second compartment through the partition means with the entry port and the exit port closed, and the hazardous material passing from the second compartment into the chamber through the exit port with the partition means closed; 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; and 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 tbereof through the exhaust means.
