Abstract:

A laundry waste-water-recovery unit was in-service tested at the Midway Naval Station Exchange Laundry. Treatment results were comparable to those obtained at NCEL, although costs were higher than previously estimated. An analysis of test results indicates that the unit is not suitable for inclusion in the functional component system. However, the process itself may be used at permanent stations to supplement water supplies by 5 to 20.
