Abstract
A multi-purpose modular pyrolysis and thermal processing system (MPMPTPS) for pyrolyzing and/or vaporizing liquids and solids to create an evolved vapor suitable for introduction into a gas-chromatography and/or vapor detection system, thereby allowing detection, classification and/or identification characteristics of threat agents. The MPMPTPS system is capable of pyrolyzing and/or vaporizing liquid (in solution, suspension or colloidal form) and solid (in aerosol or powder form) form of biological and chemical threat agents in a manner that the evolved vapor may be introduced into Gas-Chromatography systems and/or vapor detection systems, without the use of any reagents and/or bottled gases.
