Abstract

At present, the bases and arsenals of the RF Ministry of Defense contain a considerable quantity of conventional ammunition (CA) with an expired shelf life. The total quantity of high explosives contained in them is estimated at about 100 million tonnes. Certainly, this value is not comparable with the annual consumption of industrial explosives in Russia (1 million tons). However, if we take into account the potential man-made danger, as well as the absolute material value of chemical raw materials, their introduction into the economic turnover is an important environmental and economic task.
