The Economics of Solid Waste Disposal at Red River Army Depot.

Abstract

This study examines several possibilities for disposing of the solid waste generated by Red River Army Depot and Lone Star Army Ammunition Plant, for which combined annual scrap totals are approximately 6,600 tons wood, 5,600 tons paper, 6,000 tons metal, 1,500 tons rubber, and 250 tons general refuse. Recycle markets are investigated, and various methods of disposal are considered and evaluated with cost as the criterion.
