Non-Chemical Looking for a Plasma refinery

[bullet]

Anyone out there know of any Plasma refineries in the states?

You need to refine plasma? The Red Cross does that for free... :shock:

There is no such a thing.
Some people are trying to use plasma in reducing or recovery stages but it is rather in testing stages. Plasma vaporise metals - this is what we do not want to see - values going up in smoke.

If you look for hazardous waste incineration, chances are you will find your plasma furnace.

My bad... I have somehow been led to believe that Plasma refineries were the latest and greatest ways to extract precious metals from low quality ore. Which is why I asked the question.

It appears that several of you and other articles I have read, do not believe in and or like the idea of Plasma furnace refining. With that said, what is the most efficient way out there to refine low quality ore for the best results?
