FEASIBILITY STUDY AND PRELIMINARY DESIGN OF A APPARATUS FOR DISPOSING OF LIQUID AND OTHER ORGANIC WASTE AND OTHER NON-METALLIC WASTES IN MILITARY VEHICLES WHEREIN THE WASTE IS PERIODICALLY MOVED FROM A HOLDING AREA TO A HEATING CHAMBER WHICH THEN UTILIZES HEAT (VEHICLE'S EXHAUST SYSTEM OR INDEPENDENT HEAT SOURCE) TO INCINERATE THE WASTE MATERIAL. BACTERIA IN THE WASTE ARE VAPORIZED AND DESTROYED BY THE HEAT THAT CONVERTS THE WASTE TO A PRODUCT THAT IS PRINCIPALLY STEAM AND A LITTLE FINE ASH. THIS RESIDUE IS PASSED THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THE EXHAUST SYSTEM ALONG WITH THE EXHAUST GASSES. SPECIAL EMPHASIS WILL BE MADE TO MAKE SYSTEM COMPATIBLE WITH SPACE LIMITATIONS, OPERATIONAL REQUIREMENTS AND ENVIRONMENTAL STRESS REQUIRED OF A MILITARY VEHICLE. THE WASTE DISPOSAL SYSTEM DESIGN WILL ALLOW OPERATION WHILE THE VEHICLE IS OPERATING IN A CONTAMINATED ENVIRONMENT.
