Book Description
This report evaluates two aspects of solid waste management: (1) the impact of changing from backyard collection of Government Issue refuse containers (GI cans) to curbside collection using a solid waste container called a Mobil Toter (Trademark); and (2) the feasibility of using a portable, recycling multiple-container-washing unit designed and fabricated at the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory. The Mobil Toter system was evaluated through an implementation study at Fort Eustis, VA. The 28 percent decrease in collection time noted in the study cannot be ascribed to use of the Mobil Toter container alone; it also reflects the effects of curbside vs. backyard collection, fewer containers (Mobile Toter is larger than a GI can), and power-assisted dumping. The container wash unit was evaluated by facilities engineering personnel at Fort Leavenworth, KS. The test indicated that the concept was sound, but that greater wash pressure and pickup suction would improve performance. (Author).
