Treatment and Disposal of High-Energy Materials and Related Components
Abstract
The report is intended to provide an overview of naval munitions treatment and disposal, and a delineation of some suggested general and specific avenues of research and development that will enhance future progress in the area. Environmental protection and safety to personnel, as well as the engineering involved in the treatment and disposal of high-energy materials of all the services (Army, Navy and Air Force), are of primary concern. In the past, much of the work in this field has been motivated largely by expedient technological considerations. Therefore, the principal aspects of environmental impact problems underlying the more important treatment and disposal problems are discussed, and the technology of potential processes for solving these problems is reviewed.
