Induction Heating of Trash Reactor (OSCAR)

Induction heating is one of the standard processes used in the manufacturing industry to heat conductive materials using induced currents. Due to its efficiency, this heating method has reached other industries such as common household appliances. Currently, the majority of the heating methods used in the KSC laboratory rely on resistive heating for its heating operations. This project aims to study the benefits of the induction heating method being applied to heating processes in current laboratory projects. Potential benefits of this study include increase in heating efficiency, reduced power consumption, and speed of operations.
