Field Deployable Hydrolysis System

[1] Neutralization is facilitated through chemical reactions involving reagents that are mixed and heated to increase destruction efficiency, which is rated at 99.9 percent.

[1] The transportable FDHS is a self-contained system that includes power generators and a laboratory.

[1] An on-site a crew of 15 trained personnel, including SME support, is needed for each shift of a possible 24-hour operational cycle.
