Description

Explore the complex challenges surrounding the destruction of old arsenical and mustard munitions in this specialized volume from Springer. As more than ten million poison gas shells and mortar bombs remain hidden across Europe, the risks to farming and construction projects continue to grow. This text addresses the technical difficulties faced by nations managing these relics from World War I. Many of these munitions were abandoned in old ammunition dumps or failed to detonate when originally fired. Because they are often heavily corroded, identifying whether a found object is a chemical warfare agent or a standard explosive is a major safety concern. This book provides insight into the identification and handling of these hazardous materials. It is an essential resource for understanding the ongoing efforts to collect and destroy chemical warfare agents that are frequently turned up in modern-day development and agricultural work.

Key Features

Provides detailed information on the chemical problems involved in destroying old arsenical and mustard munitions.

Addresses the hazards posed by the millions of poison gas shells and mortar bombs still hidden in Europe.

Examines the difficulties of identifying heavily corroded munitions found during farming and construction activities.
