Plastics Pollution Control Technology Research

Abstract

During the past two years, The Keystone Center has continued to convene the participants in the Keystone Dialogue on Navy Plastics Pollution Control. Participants have been working with Navy personnel during this time period to implement the recommendations from the report, Reducing Navy Plastic Pollution (1986). Discussions have focused on: the development of new machines which will compact and process plastic and eliminate the need for storage of food waste; substitutions and reduction efforts in the supply centers and onboard ships; and the results of the recycling demonstration project involving the U.S.S. Lexington and ships based at Norfolk.
