Descripción del proyecto
Nuevas herramientas para prevenir las bombas caseras
La amenaza de los explosivos caseros es importante, según han demostrado varios atentados terroristas por toda la Unión Europea. Si bien restringir el acceso y detectar materiales precursores es la máxima prioridad, no hay ningún método universal para impedir que los terroristas los utilicen. En este contexto, el proyecto INHERIT, financiado con fondos europeos, desarrollará un planteamiento multidisciplinar para intervenir en numerosas fases de la línea temporal del terrorismo centrándose en los productos químicos precursores de explosivos. En concreto, desarrollará tecnologías para dejar inertes los productos químicos, hacer que estos se puedan detectar más fácilmente y que sean capaces de aportar un mayor valor forense. El objetivo será que resulte imposible que los terroristas empleen estos materiales para producir explosivos.
Objetivo
The terrorism timeline consists of multiple stages. Each stage possesses vulnerabilities that can be used to disrupt a planned attack. Due to the large diversity in precursors, there is no universal approach yet that can be taken to keep a terrorist from using them to make explosives. INHERIT proposes to develop a multi-disciplined approach to intervene across multiple stages of the terrorism timeline. INHERIT has assembled a multi-faceted team with experience of all aspects of four important steps in this timeline. With a focus on explosive precursor chemicals, the team will work to develop technologies directed towards thwarting the ability of terrorists to exploit these materials for production of explosives. Methodologies to render chemicals inert, more readily detectable and capable of yielding greater forensic value will all be pursued. Collaboration between the diverse teams developing these interventions will ensure a coordinated holistic approach across all threat materials identified. This holistic approach will also be applicable in the struggle against emerging and future HME threats. The knowledge and insight resulting from INHERIT testing and analysis will be fed to targeted authorities, legislators, and organisations through a dissemination process which will include meetings, workshops and conferences conducted at appropriate security levels.
