Abstract
According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a system reduces or eliminates the volume of waste or sewage by taking thermal energy from a waste heat source and applying it to waste or sewage. In particular configurations, the waste or sewage is homogenized and condensed prior to being sprayed across the waste heat. In particular configurations, the waste heat may be sprayed once a threshold amount of energy is contained in the waste heat.
