ALICE: Combustion of Frozen Nanoaluminum and Water - TopicsExpress



          

ALICE: Combustion of Frozen Nanoaluminum and Water Mixtures The future of Nano Aluminum propellants is here.It is not in our FUTURE, it has arrived. Negative impacts: • Atmospheric impacts generally come from the interaction of propellant exhaust with the atmosphere. • Shock sensitivity was performed to determine whether the propellant (ALICE) would propagate a detonation wave. • Ground-based impacts range from groundwater contamination to explosions caused by mishandling of propellants. • Space-based impacts generally focus on debris and effects on spacecraft. • Biological impacts tend to focus on the toxicology and corrosiveness of propellants. ALICE produces hydrogen and alumina as its main exhaust; while these are generally billed as environmentally friendly, stratospheric alumina has the potential to reduce ozone concentrations. aerospace.org/2013/07/31/green-propulsion-trends-and-perspectives/ Lets ask the question? What does it mean John D. Desain of Aerospace.org mean when he stated that one of the negative results of testing ALICE was stratospheric alumina has the potential to reduce ozone concentrations. ALICE might one day replace some liquid or solid propellants, and, when perfected, might have a higher performance than conventional propellants, said Timothee Pourpoint, a research assistant professor in the School of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Its also extremely safe while frozen because it is difficult to accidentally ignite, Steven Son, associate professor of mechanical engineering at Purdue University, NASA read more here: AL-ice, ALICE, Atmospheric impact , ground water impact, environmental toxins, heavy metal toxins,Aluminium-Ice
