Ordnance remediation system

A system for eliminating unexploded ordnance from a mixture, the system comprising:

• a separation plant, comprising:
• a first crusher having an input and an output, the first crusher being configured to receive a stream of pieces of material at the input and to produce, at the output, a stream of pieces of material of reduced size,
• a first magnetic separation station having an input, a first output, and a second output, and being configured to receive a stream of material at the input and to produce respective output streams of material at the first output and at the second output, by directing ferrous metal pieces to the second output;
• and
• a screen plant having an input, a first output and a second output, and being configured to receive a stream of material at the input, and to produce respective output streams of material at the first output and at the second output, by directing pieces larger than a threshold size to the first output and directing pieces smaller than a threshold size to the second output;
• and
• an inspection plant having an input for receiving, from the separation plant, pieces larger than the threshold size, the inspection plant comprising an inspection station for identifying unexploded ordnance among the received pieces,
• each of the first crusher, the first magnetic separation station, and the screen plant having an input or an output connected to an input or an output of another of the first crusher, the first magnetic separation station, and the screen plant,
• the inspection plant being sufficiently distant from the separation plant to prevent unexploded ordnance at the separation plant from posing a personnel hazard at the inspection plant.
