PDAC: Submission #1204 | Dayton Development Coalition

Submission information

Project Details

1. To which Review Panel are you submitting your project? Defense

2. Project title Mobile Military Field Combustor with Health and Energy Components

3. Short description In wartimes, disposal of trash doesn't happen in environmental, healthy ways. In most cases, the waste is piled and burned; the poorly burned gasses staying at troop level to be breathed-in and probably do harm. High Tech solutions take time to install and special training. Instead, a mobile unit with 'wood stove' skill requirements can be fired up as soon as the front line site is selected. This proposal seeks to develop a proof of concept, working prototype: A Mobile War Zone Combustor.
