When the waste would be reduced by the arc plasma, the radiation power should be put down, because it is a great deal of loss. On the other hand, we can use it as a clean source for heating materials in a vacuum chamber. In this case, it is expected that the radiation becomes greater. In both cases the radiation power emitted from the arc plasmas has to be precisely controlled. We measured the radiation power emitted from a plasma torch as a function of the electric in-put power. The radiation power was measured to be 200-700 W for an in-put power of 2-4.4 kW and increased in proportion to the 1.8th power of the current or near 1.6th power of the in-put power. Therefore, the radiation power increases steeply with the in-put power. The radiation efficiency for a wall-stabilized arc model was 31% in the condition of 2 cm appearance plasma length, 100 A current and 4400 W in-put power. An equipment using a vacuum chamber for the plasma treatment of the hazardous wastes due to the radiation power emitted from torch plasma is proposed.
