Abstract:

The Total Resource Utilization (TRU) Habitat solution integrates two technologies to reduce liquid and solid waste streams at FOBs, while providing thermal energy and clean treated water. These technologies are the Micro Auto Gasification System (MAGS) and Wastewater Electrochemical Treatment Technology (WETT). The team from the Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC), Terragon, and Sustained Turn demonstrated the TRU Habitat system at the Marine Corps Spring 2021 Weapons and Tactics Instructor (WTI) course at their expeditionary field site in Yuma, Arizona. The four-week demonstration measured the systems solid and liquid waste reduction, effluent water quality,water recovery ability, energy use, transportability, suitability for military operations, and assessed the payback period in different use cases.
