Young people's occupational aspirations beyond the aspiration discourse: A sociocultural perspective

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Young people's aspirations have been the focus of many educational, sociological and psychological studies. This paper argues, firstly, that the concept of aspirations holds greater generative potential than suggested by the policy‐oriented ‘aspiration discourse’.

Enhanced thermal performance and hydrochloric acid gas (HCl) emission mitigation in ammonium perchlorate (AP)-Based solid propellants with potassium permanganate (KMnO4)/AP dual oxidisers

open access: yesAtmospheric Environment: X
The conventional propellant used in rocket boosters and tactical missiles commonly utilises ammonium perchlorate (AP). However, the release of harmful chloride fumes resulting from the combustion of AP during rocket launches contributes to a 1 % increase

Process for the leaching of AP from propellant [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
A method for the recovery of ammonium perchlorate from waste solid rocket propellant is described wherein shredded particles of the propellant are leached with an aqueous leach solution containing a low concentration of surface active agent while ...

In Situ Methanation on Mars: A Process Concept Study on the Impact of H2/CO2 and Recycle Ratio

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
The rocket propellant methane can be produced on Mars by in situ resource utilization. The H2/CO2 ratio is decisive, and excess H2 is favored for providing sufficient propellant purity. The operation mode—with or without recycling of unreacted reactants—depends on the resource availability of the selected landing site. Abstract For return missions from
