Electric arc stabilized by a vortex of water (Gerdien arc) is used in a special type of plasma torch for generation of thermal plasma jet with extreme plasma parameters. Extremely high plasma enthalpy and plasma temperature and very low plasma density result in very high efficiency of utilization of plasma enthalpy for heating of material injected into plasma. Plasma torches with Gerdien arc are used in industrial scale for plasma spraying, other plasma chemistry applications like waste treatment or gasification of biomass for syngas production are being investigated.
