Abstract
A method of and an apparatus for heating, melting, waste disposal and production of gaseous fuel include supplying air, coal, steam and waste into a melt. The melt contains elements readily oxidized by air and producing oxides which are readily reduced by carbon. The overall results of the reaction of the elements oxidation and reduction consist in the production of CO containing gas and evolving heat. The heat evolved is extracted from the melt by submergence of solid to be heated into the melt, by injection of heated gases into the molten slag, by heat exchange between the wall confining the melt and gas, liquid or solid to be heated, or by conversion of steam into H.sub.2 and CO.
