Biological Treatment of Solvent-Based Paint

Abstract

The Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFAC) Engineering Service Center (NAVFAC ESC), under the sponsorship of NAVFAC and the Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP), attempted to demonstrate and validate a full-scale treatment system for biodegrading hazardous expired shelf-life (ESL), solvent-based paint into nonhazardous byproducts. Previous research and studies suggested the application was an economically viable process that would reduce the Navy's highest per pound recurring cost.
