The results of a process analysis and an experimental exploratory study of supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) show that elements of combustion technology are suitable to overcome the technical problems of SCWO. The Film Cooled Hydrothermal Burner (FCHB) which operates at 25 MPa up to 2000 K in the reaction zone keeping wall temperature under stress at 300 to 400 K shows further development potential of the Wallcooled Hydrothermal Burner (WHB) concept for SCWO, a still promising waste treatment process.
