Abstract
A method for processing waste material converts organic matter such as non-pretreated infectious hospital wastes, hazardous wastes, refinery wastes, paper wastes and other similar gaseous, liquid, or solid organic wastes, into hydrogen and carbon by photodecomposition. The waste material is converted by exposing the organic waste materials to a sufficiently intense field of radiation which causes the decomposition, or breakdown, of the organic materials into their component elements. Because the environment within the reaction chamber is controlled to minimize the presence of oxidizing agents, the decomposition products, primarily carbon and hydrogen, can be withdrawn and collected for subsequent use.
