Abstract
A substance such as radioactive liquid waste is heat treated using microwave by introducing the substance into a vessel made of a material reflective to microwave and containing spherical bodies made mainly of a material transmissive (i.e. transparent) to microwave. Microwave is applied to the substance while imparting movement to the spherical bodies. The substance is heat treated while in contact with the spherical bodies and is separated from the spherical bodies and pulverized by the friction and collision between the moving spherical bodies. An apparatus for carrying out the method is described.
