FY04 NDCEE Annual Technologies Publications
Abstract
In 1991, the U.S. Congress established the National Defense Center for Environmental Excellence (NDCEE) as a national leadership organization to address high-priority environment, safety and occupational health (ESOH) problems for the Department of Defense (DoD), other Government organizations, and the industrial community. The NDCEE is operated by Concurrent Technologies Corporation (CTC), a nonprofit organization. The NDCEE's mission is to: (1) Transfer environmentally preferable materials, processes and tools to defense applications and private industry (2) Provide training that supports the use of new, environmentally preferable technologies (3) Support applied research and development, where appropriate, to transfer new technologies. The NDCEE is focused on meeting specific end-user needs and emphasizes risk reduction, cost savings, enhanced readiness, and environmental excellence. This third NDCEE Annual Technologies Publication contains the results of the NDCEE's technology demonstration and transfer activities for 33 technologies in fiscal year (FY) 2004. Each technology summary includes a general description along with technology benefits, advantages, and limitations; specific FY04 NDCEE accomplishments; economic analysis findings (if applicable) including capital and operating cost estimates as well as payback periods; suggested implementation applications; points of contact; and applicable NDCEE tasks. To aid readers in identifying technologies that may address their specific challenges, the summaries highlight one or more generic ESOH needs that the technology addresses. In conjunction with the above technology-related activities, the NDCEE operates a Demonstration Facility.
