I posted this question before but didnt get any real usful information. How can I seperate fuel oil from ammonium nitrate? I tried gasoline and then pour it off but that doesnt really work.

How about adding water to dissolve the AN? then wait for the diesel to seperate in from the AN/WATER. then just extraxt the AN/WATER

Spreading it out in the sun should evapourate the FO - eventually.

Or maybe dissolving it in a detergent solution and then crystalising out the AN.
