Some were  fired and failed to detonate, others were abandoned in old ammunition  dumps. Most retain their load of chemical warfare (CW) agents. They  are turned up daily in the course of farming and construction. Many  European nations have permanent departments concerned with their  collection and destruction. \u003cbr\u003e  Old munitions, when discovered, are usually heavily corroded and  difficult to identify. Is it a CW munition? Or an explosive? If CW,  what agent does it contain? Once identified, one has to select a  destruction method. Some of the methods that have been proposed are  less than perfect, and are often complicated by the presence of  extraneous chemicals, either mixed with the CW agents during  manufacture or formed over decades in the ground. \u003cbr\u003e  Of particular interest are the insiders' reports on the German CW  programmes of both World Wars, and the current status of Russian  chemical armaments.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1998-07-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792351757\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-9115-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 200\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46311987675276,"sku":"9780792351757","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792351757.jpg?v=1771515636","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780792351757","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
