Individual Kit for Immediate Decontamination

In case of CBRN incidents, the individual decontamination is an extremely urgent measure, for the rescue of personnel from all categories of military forces or from specialized intervention teams, as well as the civilian population unprotected or with minimal protection. Any delay has a significant impact on the fulfillment of combat missions, volume of losses and success of recovery. In this context, it must be considered the possibility that your own troops operate in areas with CBRN risk. The activities with top priority are those relating to the individual protection and immediate decontamination of the personnel, within a very short time, guaranteeing the chances of survival. The paper presents the research results of a multidisciplinary team in the decontamination of chemical, biological and radiological domain for achieving a new individual kit for immediate decontamination, according with the NATO required standards. In the paper the performance and technical-tactical features of the product are iterated, as well as the aspects related to the testing and evaluation of the product development.
