Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the general field of neutralization of a munition, and more particularly of a chemical and biological munition.
  • the main aim of the present invention is therefore to provide a mobile solution such as that of the patent EP 0991 449 B1 allowing the neutralization of a chemical or biological weapon.
  • the present invention also aims to provide an easy-to-use solution.
  • the device comprises a filter which is connected to the internal volume of the enclosure by a channel.
  • the device comprises a system for controlling the firing of the pyrotechnic neutralization charge, the firing control system being connected by a wire to the pyrotechnic neutralization charge, the wire passing through the channel.
  • the device comprises an internal envelope located inside the enclosure and which maintains the mitigation agent.
  • the mitigation agent is an aqueous foam.
  • the enclosure is formed by a flexible envelope.
  • the decontaminating agent comprises a powdery solid mineral substance.
  • a sarcophagus which includes a zone of fragility surrounds the pyrotechnic neutralization charge.
  • the sarcophagus comprises a box closed by a cover, the fragile zone corresponding to the junction between the box and the cover.
  • the second layer of decontaminating agent comprises a first sub-layer formed by a mixture of decontaminating agent with a fraction of the soil extracted during digging of the hole, and a second sub-layer deposited on the first sub-layer. layer and which is formed by the decontaminating agent.
  • the chemical or biological weapon and the pyrotechnic neutralization charge are installed in a sarcophagus which includes a fragile zone.
  • a device 1 for neutralizing a chemical or biological weapon 2 comprises an enclosure 3 which is waterproof and which delimits an internal volume 31 in which the weapon 2 is placed in order to be neutralized.
  • the enclosure 3 is movable between a retracted position ( figure 2 ) and a deployed position ( Figure 3 ), the internal volume 31 delimited by the enclosure 3 being larger in the deployed position compared to the retracted position.
  • Enclosure 3 is in the retracted position before explosion and neutralization of weapon 2, and enclosure 3 is in the deployed position after explosion and neutralization of weapon 2.
  • the passage of enclosure 3 from its retracted position to the deployed position allows the enclosure 3 to resist the explosion of the weapon 2.
  • the weapon 2 being a chemical or biological weapon, the explosive charge is reduced compared to a conventional weapon.
  • the enclosure 3 is sealed, that is to say it retains gases and liquids, in order to prevent the dissemination of gases, liquids and dust which are likely to be released during the neutralization of the weapon 2.
  • the enclosure 3 is formed by a flexible wall, the enclosure 3 passing from its retracted position to its deployed position under the effect of the explosion of the weapon 2.
  • the enclosure 3 can be made of waterproof fabric, such as for example CORETECH Shelterguard ® , or of Tychem 10,000 ® .
  • the enclosure 3 is formed by rigid walls, for example metal walls, which slide between them in order to ensure deployment of the enclosure 3 during the explosion.
  • the device 1 also includes a pyrotechnic neutralization charge 4 which is configured to be installed against the weapon 2 and inside the enclosure 3.
  • the pyrotechnic neutralization charge 4 has the function of initiating the explosion of the weapon 2 so that said weapon 2 releases the active chemical or biological substance.
  • the pyrotechnic neutralization charge 4 is adapted according to the chemical or biological weapon 2 to be neutralized.
  • the device 1 further comprises a decontaminating agent 5 which is placed inside the enclosure 3 and which surrounds the weapon 2 and the pyrotechnic neutralization charge 4.
  • the decontaminating agent 5 has the function of reacting with the substance active chemical or biological agent which is released by the weapon 2 during the explosion of said weapon 1.
  • the decontaminating agent 5 is adapted depending on the active substance present in the weapon 2. According to a possible variant making it possible to limit the liquid effluents and to obtain good explosion tolerance, the decontaminant agent 5 is a solid mineral decontaminant in powder form.
  • the decontaminating agent 5 may for example comprise calcium hypochlorite, calcium oxide, calcium hydroxide, or a mixture of these components.
  • the mitigation agent 6 can for example be an aqueous foam.
  • the device 1 can comprise an internal envelope 61 which is located inside the enclosure 3 and which makes it possible to maintain the mitigation agent.
  • the internal envelope 61 can be a flexible wall, which for example is made of fabric.
  • the device 1 for neutralizing the chemical or biological weapon 2 has the advantage of being mobile and thus can be used at the location where the weapon 2 was found.
  • the device 1 can then be moved to a final disposal channel, such as an incineration center.
  • the decontaminating agent 5 which is placed around the weapon 2 and the pyrotechnic neutralization charge 4 can be mixed with a portion of the soil which was removed during the digging of the hole in the ground.
  • the second layer of decontaminating agent 5 which is poured over the weapon 2 comprises on the one hand a first sub-layer formed by a mixture of decontaminating agent 5 with a fraction of the extracted soil during the digging of the hole, and on the other hand a second sub-layer deposited on the first sub-layer and which is formed by the decontaminating agent 5.
  • the device 1 comprises a filter 7 which is connected to the internal volume 31 of the enclosure 3 by a channel 71.
  • the filter 7 can for example comprise an activated carbon filter.
  • THE filter 7 makes it possible to deflate the enclosure 3 after the neutralization shot in a secure manner, thus facilitating the transport of the device 1 to the total elimination channel.
  • the device 1 may comprise a firing control system 41 of the pyrotechnic neutralization charge 4 which is connected to said pyrotechnic neutralization charge 4 by a wire.
  • the wire connecting the pyrotechnic neutralization charge 4 to the firing control system 41 passes through channel 71.
  • the sarcophagus 8 may comprise a box closed by a cover, the fragile zone corresponding to the junction between the box and the cover.
  • the box can for example be formed by a tube which is open at one end, the open end of the tube being closed by a cover.
  • the tube is open at its two ends, the ends each being closed by a cover.
