JANNAF Safety and Environmental Protection Subcommittee Workshop Held in Los Angeles California on 10-12 January 1989. HCI Vapor Characterization and Detection

Abstract

This workshop report addresses the instrumentation for remotely sensing HCl vapor in solid rocket exhaust. Some of the sensing technologies reported upon include passive dosimeter, infrared vapor/aerosol detector, near infrared diode laser detector, and flow analysis detector. Also, a field test was conducted to compare the above mentioned sensing technologies. In addition, the workshop attendees sought to define occupational health and safety baselines when monitoring HCl contamination. Partial Contents: Initial evaluation of a Passive HCl Indicating System; Sticking Coefficient Of HCl on Aerosols; Infrared Absorption Gas Sensor For The Detection Of HCl In Launch Vehicle Exhaust Clouds Measurement of HCl by Near-Infrared Diode Laser Absorption Hydrogen Chloride Impinger Efficiencies; Summary Of Test Results For The SSI Infrared HCl Monitor; Evaluation Of A Passive HCl Indicating System. Keywords: Air quality; Environmental protection; Hydrogen chloride; Remote detectors; Rocket exhaust; Safety.
