    Description

    The Department of Defense, through the Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD), is seeking sources for a small-deck hydraulic can crusher designed to efficiently process paint and aerosol cans. The primary objective is to develop a machine that can crush 5-gallon and 1-gallon steel paint cans to a height below 1 inch, allowing them to be classified as "empty" under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, thereby facilitating less regulated disposal and reducing hazardous waste management costs. This equipment must also effectively crush and drain aerosol cans while capturing and redirecting aerosol emissions safely, with specific requirements for compact dimensions (maximum height of 6.5 feet and width/depth of 52 inches) and features such as a hydraulic power source and electronic controls. Interested parties can contact Lametria Smith at lametria.r.smith.civ@us.navy.mil or Barbaraann K Witz at barbaraann.k.witz.civ@us.navy.mil for further details.
