The Japan Atomic Power Company (JAPC) has applied the Plasma Arc Melting Technology to treatment processes to reduce the low level dry active wastes (DAW) volume and to stabilize DAW for final disposal. JAPC decided to adopt an incineration/melting facility using the Plasma Arc Centrifugal Treatment Process (PACT) at the Tsuruga Power Station. In Switzerland, the ZWILAG (Zwischenlager Wurenlingen AG) also decided to adopt the PACT. Some laboratories in the U.S.A., France, and Germany, however, are carrying out their own R&D program to develop a plasma melting treatment for radioactivity contaminated soil among other things. Development of a thermal plasma treatment is now making progress on a world-wide scale in the field of radioactive wastes. I hope that this movement will be fruitful.
