  • Compositions and methods for detoxifying chemical warfare agents
    Patent number: 11433267
    Abstract: Doped metal oxide compositions are provided that consist essentially of: fluoride; alumina; and less than 10% H2O. Detoxification reactions are provided that can include a mixture of less than 50% by weight doped metal oxide composition and chemical warfare agent. Cartridges are provided that can include a doped metal oxide composition, the composition including: fluoride and alumina. Methods for detoxifying a chemical warfare agent are also provided. The methods can include exposing the chemical warfare agent to a doped metal oxide composition, wherein the doped metal oxide composition is less than 50% by mass of the chemical warfare agent.

  • Decontamination of personnel and objects
    Patent number: 10730083
    Abstract: A method for efficiently decontaminating surfaces is provided comprising applying an indicator to a surface wherein the indicator provides an observable or machine readable response when a contamination is present on the surface, wherein the response is located relative to a location of the contamination; and decontaminating the location of the contamination, and optionally rechecking the location of the initial contamination post decontamination to ensure that the surface is free of contamination.
