Alumina particle emissions
HighSolid rocket boosters release alumina particles that catalyse ozone destruction in the upper atmosphere.
1 obligation2 opportunitiesBlack carbon deposition in stratosphere
HighRocket exhaust deposits black carbon particles in the stratosphere, absorbing solar radiation and contributing to localised warming and ozone depletion.
