How Do You Dispose of Chemical Weapons? In the midst of a particularly brutal civil war international attention focused on the Syrian government's use of chemical weapons against civilians.

With a potential deal on the table for Russia to take and store Syria's chemical weapons here is a look at what chemical weapons are and

what it takes to safely dispose of them. Broadly a chemical weapon is a toxic chemical delivered by an explosion such as a bomb artillery shell or missile.

Chemical weapons injure and kill people through horrific reactions including choking nerve damage blood poisoning and blistering.

The first chemical weapons used in World war i were released gases from canisters. Today chemical weapons are carried typically liquids in bombs or shells.

The chemicals like sulfur mustards commonly called mustard gas) or sarin are dispersed in the air like a mist. Technically this means they aren't gases;

they're liquid aerosol with droplets carried through the air. World war i saw the first major use of chemical weapons with 124000 metric tons of chemical agent unleashed by nations including the UK Germany and France.'

'There's no easy solution there's no pixie dust magic vaporization portal.''Before WORLD WAR II Italy used chemical weapons in Ethiopia and during WORLD WAR II Japan used them in China.

Throughout the Cold war both the Soviet union and the United states developed and stockpiled chemical weapons. While the United states never used them in war a declassified CIA document alleges Soviet use during their invasion and occupation of Afghanistan.

Egypt was the first country to use chemical weapons in war after WORLD WAR II. Egypt joined a civil war in Yemen in 1963 where the Egyptian militarty dropped sulfur mustard bombs on enemy troops sheltering in mountain caves.

Iraq's dictator Saddam Hussein used sulfur mustards and the nerve agent Tabun against Iran in the 1980s during the Iran-iraq war and against the Kurdish people in northern Iraq in 1988.

Chemical weapons appear to have been used against civilians in the ongoing Syrian Civil war between the dictatorial regime of Bashar al Assad and a loose collection of rebel groups.

Syria's chemical weapons stockpile predates the recent conflict. Following a series of military defeats in war against Israel the Syrian government began amassing sulfur mustards sarin and VX (a nerve agent.

Syria could have acquired its first chemical weapons as early as 1973 and publicly admitted to a stockpile in 2012;

a foreign ministry spokesman said the weapons would only be used against foreign intervention. There is! In fact there have been several.

The first treaty banning chemical weapons actually predates their use. At the 1899 Hague Convention signatories agreed to not use Asphyxiating or Deleterious Gases.

Currently chemical weapons are banned by the Chemical Weapons Convention a treaty adopted by the General assembly of the United nations that took effect in 1997.

and use of chemical weapons mandates their destruction and encourages international cooperation in chemistry and the chemical trades.

The convention is fairly strict about what counts as a chemical weapon. Agent orange a herbicide and defoliant used by the United states in the Vietnam war does not count as a chemical weapon under the rules of the treaty

despite the fact that it has been linked to cancer heart disease and birth defects. Al Mauroni director of the USAF counterproliferation center in Alabama and author of Chemical Demilitarization:

Public Policy Aspects tells Popular Science that disposal depends on how the weapon was designed: There are two major ways to dispose of chemical weapons:

incineration and neutralization. Incineration uses a tremendous amount of heat to turn the toxic chemical into mostly ash water vapor and carbon dioxide.

Army Explosive Ordinance Demolition teams would use a 10-to-1 ratio of explosives to suspected chemical weapons.

The heat from the explosives will destroy almost all of the chemical agent in the weapons and the very very low concentration of whatever wasn't destroyed was dispersed in the air hopefully harmlessly.

The Army has a mobile chemical weapons disposal unit. The United states has nine chemical weapons sites where America's stockpile of chemical weapons is being disposed.

While the mobile site is getting press related to Syria Mauroni thinks it has a more mundane purpose.

and Mauroni says they both have leakers in their stored chemical weapons so the mobile unit goes out to neutralize the chemical agent.

which are used the components to make a chemical weapon that aren't the weapon itself yet

For the weapons themselves? As far as sarin mustard or VX goes they all have challenges says Mauroni.

The countries that have the most experience getting rid of chemical weapons are the United states and Russia owing to their massive Cold war chemical weapons stockpiles.

According to Mauroni Russia had 40000 tons at its peak while the United states amassed around 30000 tons.

which 16 metric tons of chemical weapons that they gave to the United states for disposal. Destruction was completed in 2007

In 1986 Congress passed a law mandating destruction of chemical weapons in the United states and while a tremendous amount of the stockpile has been destroyed the work will continue well into the next decade with the last site set to start disposal in 2020.

It's going to get very expensive very challenging to maintain security to move chemical weapons

Weapons of War-Poison gas Considered uncivilised prior to World war One the development and use of poison gas was necessitated by the requirement of wartime armies to find new ways of overcoming the stalemate of unexpected trench warfare.

In the first month of the war August 1914 they fired tear-gas grenades (xylyl bromide) against the Germans.

Nevertheless the German army was the first to give serious study to the development of chemical weapons

Phosgene as a weapon was more potent than chlorine in that while the latter was potentially deadly it caused the victim to violently cough and choke.

Gas never turned out to be the weapon that turned the tide of the war as was predicted often.

Kelsey's level of ignorance when it comes to chemical weapons is astounding. Its as if he just read a few stories without any fact checking

Most countries with a chemical weapons program today use binary agents. That means there is a primary

and a number of secondary agents that mix together to become the weapon. A lot of precursors have secondary uses such as organophosphates.

Are some chemical weapons easier to destroy than other? There are precursor chemicals which are used the components to make a chemical weapon that aren't the weapon itself yet

and those are easier to dispose because they might have industrial applications and can be sold to companies.

Also to address your misconception about chemical weapons in Iraq. They WERE there at one time. Saddam Hussein used them during the 1980's against Iranian and Kurdish civilians.

That is why Einstein helped develop this weapon and use it. He was carried the biggest guilt of Hiroshima as it was his equation E=mc2 that made the realization that a small core of uranium could unleash huge amounts of power.
