The Russian Federation has accumulated a significant amount of morally and physically obsolete ammunition with powder and propellant charges made of ballistic missile solid propellants. These are valuable energy-rich materials that need to be utilized. A new direction of utilization of charges with expired storage time into extended and superimposed shaped charges as well as technical solutions for effective and safe processing of tubular nitroglycerine and pyrosilicone powders into industrial explosives are proposed. As technologies of utilization of superimposed shaped charges it is proposed to press preheated samples and cutting or drilling under continuous forced heat removal.
