Funded Activity Summary

Mitigation of nitrogen oxides (NOx) formed in blasting of ammonium nitrate explosives. Several mines in Australia experience the formation of orange-brown fumes containing nitrogen oxide (NOx) gases, immediately after blasting of ammonium nitrate (AN) explosives to crush the rock. This project develops new explosives technologies, aimed to mitigate the formation of post-blast fumes, that are safe to people and the environment.
