Green Propellants Perspectives for Future Missions
44th AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference & Exhibit, 2008Many 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

Making Progress Towards »Green« Propellants – Part II
Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, 2020AbstractNitrate‐ester based propellants require stabilisers in order to maintain good chemical stability and to prevent 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. With REACH legislation (1907/2006)

Propeller efficiency options for green ship
Proceedings of 2012 9th International Bhurban Conference on Applied Sciences & Technology (IBCAST), 2012Environmental 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.

The propellant storage compartments (propellant tanks) are one of the parts that have undergone noted evolution in the design nature (mainly the shape and the structural properties) as well as the development process. To achieve high system performance for a given propulsion system, inert mass reduction as well as efficient volume utilization can be ...

Gelled hydrogren peroxide for green propellants
2010Nearly 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.

High Performance Green Propellant for Satellite Applications
45th AIAA/ASME/SAE/ASEE Joint Propulsion Conference & Exhibit, 2009This paper provides an overview of LMP-103S, a “High Performance Green Propellant” (HPGP) and outlines the benefits of LMP-103S as compared to hydrazine for monopropellant satellite applications. Corresponding performance and design characteristics of HPGP thrusters in the range of 1 N to 5 N are also reviewed.

GRAIL: Green Solid Propellants for Launchers
EUCASS, 2017Ammonium 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

Making Progress Towards « Green » Propellants – Part III
Propellants, Explosives, PyrotechnicsAbstractStabilisers are an integral part of a propellant composition. They are essential for ensuring the chemical stability of nitrate‐ester based propellants, preventing oxidation, chain scission and uncontrolled heat generation. Progress is being made, especially in Europe, with REACh legislation (1907/2006) to use more environmentally‐friendly ...
