PYROTECHNIC SAFETY IN THE PROCESS OF DEMILITARIZATION OF EXPLOSIVE ORDNANCE FROM THE ASPECT OF APPLICATION OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES

The application of new technologies in result of improving the pyrotechnic safety system, represents one of the priorities in the field of demilitarization of the EO. The conventional demilitarization procedures are partially or does not meet the prescribed standards at all in the field of pyrotechnic safety systems. The use of water-based techniques for the purpose of projectile delaboration directly influences the improvement of the pyrotechnic safety system, as well as the reduction of emissions of harmful and toxic chemical compounds into the working environment. The paper analyzes and research the possibility of improving the pyrotechnic safety system using abrasive waterjet and washout waterjet technology. Current research and conducted experiments show a wide area for the implementation of technology for the needs of projectile delaboration.
