Kinetic Studies on Thermal Decomposition of Life Expired Single-based Propellant Using TG

摘要

Life expired propellant should be disposed as waste.In the past, life expired waste propellant was disposed by incineration, landfill, sea disposal, and ignition.However, these methods caused environmental pollution and safety problem.The life expired waste propellant is good energy source.Hence, the life expired waste propellant can be converted to thermal energy by combustion, pyrolysis, and gasification.The chemical kinetic data for waste propellant combustion is important for designing combustor or gasifier of the waste propellant.In this study, chemical kinetic parameter of waste propellant were obtained from TGA (thermo-gravimetric analysis).
