In sufficient concentrations, aluminum oxide easily catalyzes ozone’s destructive reaction with chlorine gas, which splits the ozone molecule and diminishes Earth’s UV shield.

Mr. Ferreira calculated that upon satellite re-entry, the bulk of a burned-up satellite could become aluminum oxide, a pollutant that could interfere with stratospheric ozone chemistry.
