A process is provided for decontaminating metal objects, such as warhead components having hazardous materials adherent thereto. In the process, the objects are contacted with steam at a temperature above about 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit for a period of at least about 15 minutes under sub-atmospheric conditions. Thereafter, the steam used in the process is condensed to form a condensate and the condensate is used as a makeup component for an aqueous pacifying solution for pacification hazardous materials.
