Zusammenfassung:The decommissioning procedure for munitions (1) containing a safety and armament component (3) incorporating a primer (4) and connected to a body (2) containing an explosive charge (5) includes a first stage (A) in which the body is separated from the safety and armament component. The separation is made between the upper surface (7) of the explosive charge and a detonator relay (16) between the primer and charge in a cutting operation using water jets or laser to weaken the body and then applying a mechanical traction to separate the body. After separation, the safety and armament component is destroyed by incineration, e.g. in a furnace (9), and the explosive charge is burned inside the body. L'invention a pour objet un procédé de démilitarisation de munitions (1) comportant un dispositif de sécurité et d'armement (3) incorporant au moins une amorce (4), dispositif solidaire d'un corps (2) chargé en explosif (5).Ce procédé est caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte une première étape (A) au cours de laquelle on désolidarise le corps (2) du dispositif de sécurité et d'armement (3), désolidarisation réalisée de telle sorte qu'elle assure également un déconfinement du corps (2).
