METHOD OF AMMUNITION DEMILITARISATION AND AGGREGATE FOR METHOD IMPLEMENTATION Russian patent published in 2009 - IPC F42B33/06 

FIELD: weapons.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions concerns ammunition demilitarisation and is intended for explosive charge dismounting from ammunition case. For ammunition demilitarisation two flows of dry ice granules are directed onto the charge surface. Peripheral flow is delivered through tangential orifices in rotating rotor, and central flow is delivered through two diametrically opposite orifices in axial part of rotor. Device includes rotating rotor with conical cutting edges and at least two central and two tangential orifices for dry ice granule feeding onto the charge surface.

EFFECT: enhanced efficiency of ammunition demilitarisation process, extended range of processed ammunition, possible further recycling of explosives.
