Three innovative technologies are being developed to support safer, more sustainable demilitarization and disposal of defense-related materials. First presentation demonstrates an electrochemically assisted process that uses commercially available equipment to degrade dissolved and solid energetic materials, including Composition B and nitrocellulose fines, offering a potentially safe and cost-effective alternative to traditional demilitarization methods. The second presentation focuses on research that introduces a solvent-free reactive extrusion process that rapidly deconstructs crosslinked polyurethane (XPU) composites into reusable thermoplastic oligomers and separable fillers, enabling high-throughput recycling while avoiding open burning and detonation. The final project focuses on task-specific ionic liquids designed to selectively dissolve fluoropolymers such as Teflon and Viton from metal-containing defense composites under mild conditions, facilitating material recovery, reducing hazardous waste generation, and providing a safer alternative to conventional disposal techniques. Together, these technologies advance environmentally responsible, economically viable solutions for managing energetic materials, polymer composites, and fluoropolymer-containing defense waste streams.
