OWTF (Oarai Waste Reduction Treatment Facility) is constructed for volume reduction processing and stabilization treatment of solid waste, which was generated from hot facilities in Oarai Research and Develop Center of Japan Atomic Energy Agency, using in-can type high frequency induction heating by remote control. This report describes corroborative tests, in which incinerating and melting performance for OWTF is confirmed with a full-scale testing furnace. We have been carrying out the tests of incinerating and melting treatment with some kinds of simulated wastes, such as enclosure form of radioactive wastes, material and articles.
