Most of the wastes generated when dismantling nuclear power plant were contaminated with lowlevel radioactive materials, therefore, applying a plasma melting system is a good option to dispose of the complex wastes safely. Melting system with plasma technology was developed to dispose single metal or composite objects. Its purpose is to secure final emissions satisfying final treatment conditions by controlling oxidization/ reduction reaction condition in detail during the melting process. A hollow plasma torch applied at plasma melting system could be operated with various plasmaforming gasses such as N2, Air, Ar, O2, and etc. The melting furnace was designed based on a double sealing structure to prevent risk factors; such as leaks, etc. in the reaction condition. The effect of the external air inflow on the melting conditions was minimized by carefully designing the object input device, torch mounting part, final object discharge part, etc.
