Burners were designed, fabricated and used to dispose of toxic rocket propellants and other materials that are residuals from propulsion research programs conducted by the Air Force Rocket Propulsion Laboratory (AFRPL). Burners were developed to burn liquid oxidizers, liquid fuels, and solid propellants. Burners for the liquid wastes were designed and fabricated by AFRPL using commercially available components including sheet steel, industrial blowers and perforated nickel alloy sheeting. The burner developed for burning solid propellants is a modified ammunition deactivation furnace which was purchased from the Army's ammunition depot at Tooele, Utah. These burners are suitable for operational use in detoxification of rocket propellant research residues. They will be installed in the Toxic Waste Disposal Facility located at the Air Force Rocket Propulsion Laboratory, Edwards AFB, California and used to dispose of the toxic residue from its research programs.
