Reduction and conversion of weapons production in Russia have made extremely urgent the problems of development and implementation of environmentally safe and efficient processes of disposal of rocket fuel components (RFC). One of the most pressing problems is the development of a disposal process for extremely toxic 1,1- dymethylhydrazine (unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine -UDMH). There are no industrial facilities for UDMH treatment in Russia and CIS, as well as no reliable treatment technologies that meet economical and environmental requirements. Therefore, solution of problems of utilization of off-specification UDMH and other RFC, industrial wastes containing RFC, spills of RFC on soil, etc., is a very urgent task
