The present invention provides an explosive method that improves on methods currently employed. The present invention provides for a safer, less expensive, and more portable explosive device. The elements of the present invention replace dynamite or similar explosives currently used in avalanche control and bore hole blasting of rock or other solids. The present invention comprises an apparatus and a method providing a much safer alternative employing a highly confined combustion reaction of a flammable vapor, whereas dynamite is a category 1.1 high explosive imbued with all the attendant safety and security concerns. The method of the present invention provides for an improved and safer method of blasting employing a highly confined combustion reaction of a flammable vapor instead of conventional explosives currently used.

What is presented is a high power igniter that releasably secures to a cutting apparatus that is used for radially projecting a flow of heated gas to cut from an internal surface through an external surface of a conduit used for oil, gas, mining, and underwater pressure sealed tool applications. The high power igniter comprises an igniter housing adapted to be positioned in the conduit. The igniter housing comprises a containment sub and a nozzle sub that releasably secure to each other. The nozzle sub for directing the flow of the heated gas toward the cutting apparatus and releasably securing to the cutting apparatus. A high wattage heater in the igniter housing comprises a metal magnalium thermite pellet insertable into the igniter housing for creating the flow of heated gas when the high power igniter is in use and a pellet igniting device.

An apparatus, method and insulation medium for inserting and insulating a charge medium within a borehole includes a charge tube comprised of an elongate tube having a length and diameter sufficient for containing a desired quantity of a charge medium. A charge medium in a pumpable form is provided for substantially filling the charge tube. An insulation medium in a pumpable form is provided for substantially encapsulating the charge tube and substantially filling an annular space between the charge tube and the borehole for insulating the charge tube from a downhole environment in which the charge tube is to be inserted. The apparatus, methods and insulating medium can also be used for the improvement and repair of underground liners and installations and for improved treatment of mining and hazardous waste.
摘要:
A method and system for destroying information stored on a data storage device located onboard a vehicle in order to prevent unfriendly forces from obtaining the information is described. The method and system are initiated when the operator of the vehicle activates a triggering mechanism. The information may be destroyed by physically damaging the data storage device on which the information is stored or by releasing a software virus into the device on which the sensitive information is stored. A software virus may also be transmitted to a computer of an unfriendly force attempting to access the sensitive information.
