After discharging metal parts to the rotary valves, the MTU conveyor belt returns to the loading area, traveling underneath the MTU muffle. This Comparison of the metal parts treater and lower return tunnel includes the belt drive components and munitions treatment unit FOR BGCAPP water seals that prevent the belt return tunnel from becom The committee reviewed the applicability of the MTU ing contaminated by liquids and gases originating within the as an alternate method of decontaminating munitions bodies MWS room.

A method has not been developed for treating to be operated at higher temperature and possibly for longer squibs and fuzes from the energetics batch hydrolyzer waste times in treating waste contaminated with VX. Available data streams in either the MTU/supplemental decontamination indicate that the half-life for VX is 4 minutes at 482oF and 0.6 unit or the MPT.
