“…One of the main issues is to ensure safety of the process and to determine an influence of a microwave field on the quality of a product. The results of study [5] determined that products after microwave heating are safe for consumers, while the quality of nutrients is similar to that the products obtained by heating by traditional methods. Author of a paper [6] noted that microwave heating has a series of positive characteristics, such as highly efficient heating over the volume of material, possibility of provision of even temperature distribution and a use of "clean" energy.…”

In this paper, we present a microwave-assisted absorption method for the metallic wires with same electrical conductivity (e.g. tungsten and molybdenum). Our experimental set-up uses a microwave plasma generator in order to generate the plasma from the metal wires and to obtain the metal powders. The microwave plasma generator (experimental model) contains a cylindrical cavity— propagation modes, a magnetron with 800 W microwaves power and 2.45 GHz frequency, a power supply and an electronic module. In the focal point of the cylindrical cavity we have a high energy of the electromagnetic radiation. The metallic wires from this are a was vaporized and ionized. The structure of the metal powders was investigated with scanning electron microscopy. The electron temperature regarding metallic plasma produced was estimated using the ratio of atomic emission lines acquired by a high definition of the optical multichannel spectrometer. We obtained a strong microwave absorption by tungsten (W) and molybdenum (Mo) wires which depend on the power of the microwave. The Mo and W wires can be vaporized with the microwave field, in air at atmospheric pressure and room temperature.
