ERDC Innovation
• External maintenance via human intervention not required
• Shorter downtime leads to an estimated 10x decrease in operational costs
• Offers scalability via a compact footprint for continuous water treatment and higher daily flow-through volumes
• Low-cost, low-power, and low-maintenance
• Bypasses need for expensive infrastructure and offers extended range between nodes
• Supports emergency navigations
• Potential to significantly reduce operational costs
• Eliminates the need for inorganic coagulants
• Scalable
• Economical
• Advantageous use of B. subtilis
• Over-bridge free spans (e.g. damaged piers or bridges)
• Side-load or end-load railcars anywhere along the line
• Deploy on uneven surfaces and compromised preexisting structures
• Assembles quickly without the need for power tools or heavy machinery
• Recoverable and reconfigure
• Stops large vehicles upon contact
• Place or recover in less than 30 minutes
• Integrates into QuadCon for easy storage, transport and deployment
• No specialized equipment or tools required
• Blocks areas of any size with incrementally linkable 8'-width units
• Gathers data remotely, without entering blast radius
• Simple wireless configuration
• High-speed data acquisition (DAQ) solution
• Quick, real-time measurement of bedload flow rates
• Precise transport rate of bedload using quantitative data
• Less intrusive and potentially damaging than samplers
• Prevents costly navigation delays
• In situ detection/removal of MEC from water in concentrations as low as one part per million
• Reaches final color and intensity after just 24 hours of exposure
• Scalable to treat larger bodies of water such as rivers, as well as small ponds and runoffs
• Uses abundant and inexpensive AFC materials
• Reusable
• Recovers water using less than 40 watt-hours of energy per gallon
• Adjustable airstream (speed and temperature) to optimize energy usage
• Scalable and adaptable for broad applications
• Reduces PFAS concentrations in water to non-detectable levels
• Allows for remote monitoring and operation
• Easily transported with medium-sized forklift
• Complies with the U.S. Dept. of State Certification Standard for Forced Entry and Ballistic Resistance of Structural Systems (SDSTD-01.01 Rev. G)
• Inexpensive and easy to manufacture
• Fast on-site assembly
• Protects from intense ballistic, forced entry, blasts and adverse weather
• Blast, ballistic, and forced-entry protection
• Pentagon shape, return fire gun ports, and operable windows
• Tilt up and bolt-together construction
• Steel frames and concrete-filled panels for durability and safety
• Fits in an ISO container (Quadcon) for rapid transport and deployment to the most remote locations
