摘要: |
U.S. Air Force installations are seeking alternatives to deicing/anti-icing fluids used on aircraft, runways, and taxiways. The current methods of deicing/anti-icing aircraft create a significant environmental compliance and pollution prevention issue for the Air Force installations, while runway and taxiway deicing/anti-icing fluids have adverse effects on aircraft and runway utilities. The objective of this study is to test the compatibility of emerging runway and aircraft deicing alternatives with various materials specific to U.S. Air Force aircraft. These alternatives are known to be more environmentally friendly than the current propylene glycol-based aircraft deicers or potassium acetate-based runway deicers, but compatibility with materials found in aircraft systems had not been determined. |
