The work is dedicated to design of electric arc reactor for cleaning the wastewater, producing fuel, which enriched by hydrogen and reducing carbon dioxide.

Thus must be solved three problems: cleaning the wastewater, producing fuel, which enriched by hydrogen and reducing carbon dioxide.

A cleaning problem of wastewater solved as follows: the impact of long electric arc burning in the wastewater, has a combined character. An electrical arc affects the wastewater chemically, by cavitation effects, UV, light, ultrasonic and infrared radiation, by alternating magnetic and electric fields.

A problem producing fuel, which enriched by hydrogen and reducing carbon dioxide of wastewater is solved as follows:
Device for the combined treatment of wastewater is placed in the wastewater. The long arc is burned directly in the wastewater, between the cathode and the anode. 

By decomposing the wastewater by the long electric arc, atomic oxygen formed directly. Thus during the decomposition of wastewater by long electric arc, a very strong oxidizing medium is formed and all contents of wastewater are oxidized and they might be converted into the fuel.
