Field Test of Life-Cycle Cost Analysis Method for Solvent Management.

Abstract

This report documents the field test of the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory's (USA-CERL) procedure for calculating the life-cycle cost (LCC) of solvent recycling. The test was conducted at the Rock Island Arsenal, which currently recycles its solvents off-post. The USA-CERL LCC analysis method was used to compare the off-post method with solvent recycling by distillation on-post. The LCC format was found to be useful in comparing the two methods and showed that the on-post method would provide the arsenal with significant savings over a 10-year project life.
