Abstract
The proposal of a system for the safe recovery of unexploded ordnance (UXO), chemical weapons (CW) and chemicalwarfare agents (CWA) dumped at sea mainly after WWI and WWII is described in this work. The proposed solutionaddresses the tasks required to neutralise thousands of tons of dumped material and the currently available solutionsand proposed ideas. Requirements concerning the features of a recovery system are defined and scrutinised, thesebeing intended to ensure the safety of this phase of the UXO/CW neutralisation process. To meet this requirement,the concept of a remotely operated, two-component working size underwater vehicle is proposed, supplemented bya properly sized and outfitted surface platform that is an important part of the recovery system. Finally, the basiccomponents of the proposed system configuration are characterised, together with their functions during the recoveryof dangerous CWA-related objects
