Abstract
A number of alternative technologies exist that can supplement or replace the current controversial baseline disassembly-incineration system for destroying the U.S. stockpile of chemical weapons, a National Research Council (NRC) panel finds. Augmenting the baseline system with the closed-loop gas storage and treatment technologies would be the least complex and the fastest on-line alternative destruction system. The panel considered technologies and processes that roughly fall into five broad categories: Low-temperature, low-pressure, liquid-phase detoxification processes; low-temperature, low-pressure liquid-phase oxidation methods; moderate-temperature, high-pressure oxidation processes; high-temperature, low-pressure pyrolysis; and high-temperature, low-pressure oxidation processes.
