The U.S. Navy is seeking sources for hull drainage technologies or oil recyclers. Amphibious military vehicles have mixed within their armored hulls used engine coolant, used hydraulic oil, used fuel oil, used motor oil and used transmission oil. Because this mixture contains ethylene glycol when drained from the armored hulls, the hull drainage is hazardous waste. For most of the local economies surrounding many military bases where these amphibious vehicles are based this wastestream is not recyclable and very expensive to landfill. The U. S. Navy is interested in any available off the shelf technologies that can reduce the cost of handling this hazardous waste such as technologies that can remove ethylene glycol from oil or oil recyclers that can accept oil contaminated with ethylene glycol. Interested vendors/manufacturers should send a letter of interest and capabilities with pertinent brochures and descriptive literature that completely describes their product capabilities to fulfill the above requirement to DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY, CBC CODE 27165, BLDG. 41, 1000 23RD AVENUE, PORT HUENEME, CA 93043-4301. Deadline for receiving information is February 27, 1998. (0036)
