Supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) is a rapidly maturing technology for organic wastedestruction, as witnessed by the increased number of full-scale plants being constructed aroundthe world for many diverse feeds. The U.S. Army is one organization that has committed toinstalling SCWO as part of its overall demilitarization process for chemical weapons stored atthe Blue Grass Chemical Activity in Richmond, KY. This choice of technology was based onextensive testing conducted by the Army on two different reactor designs: solid wall andtranspiring wall reactors. This paper presents data and results from this test program conductedfor both SCWO reactor system designs.
