Making Progress Towards «Green» Propellants

Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, 2018
AbstractStabilisers are used in propellants to prevent the various effects such as oxidation, chain scission, energy loss and uncontrolled heat generation that are caused by homolytic and heterolytic cleavage of the weakest Nitrogen‐Oxygen bond of the nitrate ester functional group.

Green Propellants Perspectives for Future Missions

44th AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference & Exhibit, 2008
Many upper stages and spacecrafts use MMH / NTO for the propulsive manoeuvres. For low and medium delta V operations, a low cost space storable propellant couple could be selected e.g. N2O / propane or propylene. LOX / light hydrocarbon combinations offer superior Isp and are well suited for higher delta V requirements like planetary orbit insertion or

Propeller efficiency options for green ship

Proceedings of 2012 9th International Bhurban Conference on Applied Sciences & Technology (IBCAST), 2012
Environmental issues and rising fuel prices necessitate better energy-efficiency in all sectors. Shipping industry is one of the stakeholders in environmental issues. Shipping industry is responsible for 3 % of global CO 2 emissions, 14–15 % of global NO X emissions and 16 % of global SO X emissions.

Fusing of Seven HBCs toward a Green Nanographene Propeller

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 2019
This work presents a green chiral nanographene propeller (NP), which is built by fusing seven hexabenzocoronenes in a helical arrangement. It contains 258 conjugated carbon atoms and represents the largest three-dimensional conjugated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ever prepared using scalable solution chemistry.

Gelled hydrogren peroxide for green propellants

2010
Nearly pure hydrogen peroxide with less than 1% water was gelled using 15 to 25% polyvinyl-pyrrolidon (PVP) resulting in stable mono-propellants with reliable rheological properties and sensitivity parameters better than nitromethane according to drop hammer and friction. Maximum vacuum specific impulse was calculated to 2750 Ns/kg.

Green Propellants

2018
Friendly or green compositions are being sought in many kinds of applications, such as fertilization, building materials, energy generation, and so on. Thus, this classification (green) can be established after the subjection of the compound to a thorough toxicity study.

GRAIL: Green Solid Propellants for Launchers

EUCASS, 2017
Ammonium perchlorate (AP) is used in solid propellants for launchers. AP is in many ways an excellent oxidizer, but unfortunately it has a negative impact on the environment and on personal health. With ever increasing environmental concerns green solid propellants are desired. The aim of the EU funded project GRAIL is to determine if it is possible to

Ignition Test of Bi-Propellant Propulsion System Based on Green Propellants for Microsatellite

47th AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference & Exhibit, 2011
Purpose of microsatellites under 50kg-class development, is now becoming to practical and more complicated mission. At the same time, propulsion system for the microsatellites tends to be eagerly desired for their missions with orbit transfer. Therefore, we considered chemical propulsion is very suitable for the microsatellites and started to develop ...

Selection and Characterization of Green Propellants for Micro-Resistojets

Journal of Heat Transfer, 2017
The number of launches of nano- and pico-satellites has significantly increased over the past decade. Miniaturized subsystems, such as micropropulsion, for these classes of spacecraft are rapidly evolving and, in particular, micro-resistojets have shown great potential of applicability.
