Abstract

See full text

The invention described herein provides a method and apparatus for the treatment of explosive waste. The method involves the use of a vessel containing a hot granular bed such as sand to ignite the waste and to dampen explosive forces generated by the ignition of the waste. When the waste contains non-combustible components, the granular bed serves to decrease the force of impact of the non-combustible materials on the vessel walls thereby increasing the life of the vessel and as a media for collection of the non-combustible materials. The granular bed may be removed from the chamber, the non-combustible material separated, and the bed returned in a continuous or intermittent recycle for an efficient operation which conserves the bed material.
