Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to identify thermal destruction concepts applicable to the disposal of chemical agent munitions. Forty-four process concepts were identified and eight selected as being most viable. These eight concepts were evaluated in detail from both a technical and economic standpoint. A design plan for the further development of four of the concepts was prepared.
