Changing from heterogenous to homogenous HP decomposition is not a small step. Could you give an idea of the mixed monoprop composition intended? Are we still talking 50 % H2O2? In which case you'd probably equally use glowplugs to ignite the alcohol in the approx. only 200�F decomposition products. Of which a large part initially 'll consist of oxygen and the rest of *wet* steam. Have you been able to ignite such so far?
