Uncovering the Invisible: Non-Contact Detection of Persistent Chemicals

(see full document) In CBRN defence and internal security, traditional air detectors face a lethal blind spot: they cannot see persistent chemical agents and synthetic opioids that remain anchored to surfaces without evaporating. The revolutionary Non-Contact Evaporation (NCE) technologies are reshaping civilian and military doctrines to eliminate contact contamination risks. By analysing dramatic historical cases and addressing industrial fragmentation, this paper outlines a strategic roadmap to implement a universal, plug-and-play European interface. (full document here)
