Abstract

The application relates to processes for dismantling ammunition. The first aspect of the present application is a method for processing explosive waste to give a stable suspension or emulsion in an inert aqueous medium by adding organic and inorganic thickeners/emulsifiers, as well as subsequent incineration using an incinerator with a cooled injector tube. The second aspect of the present application is a method for removing explosives from ammunition wherein the explosive is flushed out of the ammunition with the aid of an inert liquid such as water under high pressure, preferably of about 1100 bar, using a high pressure spray head and an installation suitable for so removing explosives. The third aspect of the present application is a method for the production of blank ammunition wherein the charge chamber of a grenade body is filled with an inert mass consisting of a light (e.g. PUR-foam) component and a heavy (e.g. gravel) component.
