The Army is considering four EDTs for the destruction of chemical weapons: three from private sector vendors, and a fourth, Army-developed explosive destruction system (EDS).Chemical weapons disposalKentuckyRichmondChemical weapons disposalColoradoPuebloChemical weapons disposalChemical weapons disposal623.4National Research Council (U.S.).Board on Army Science and Technology.National Research Council (U.S.).Division on Engineering and Physical Sciences.National Academies Press (U.S.)National Research Council (U.S.).Committee to Review Assembled Chemical Weapons Alternatives Program Detonation Technologies.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910778037503321Assessment of explosive destruction technologies for specific munitions at the Blue Grass and Pueblo chemical agent destruction pilot plants3776245UNINA
