A device for chemical destruction of at least one feed comprising at least one organic compound are provided. In one aspect, the device comprises at least one inductive plasma torch, means for introducing at least one plasma-forming gas into the torch, optionally when the plasma gas(es) comprise(s) no or little oxygen, means for bringing oxygen gas into the plasma or into the vicinity of the plasma, means for introducing the feed into the torch, a reaction enclosure capable of allowing thermal destruction of the gases flowing from the torch, a device allowing mixing of the gases flowing out of the reaction enclosure to be carried out, means for introducing air and/or oxygen gas into the mixing device, a device allowing recombination by cooling of at least one portion of the gases from the mixing device, the torch, the reaction enclosure, the mixing device and the recombination device being in fluidic communication.
