•Case Study: Airport Management Gets A Handle On Lavatory Waste
By JWC Environmental
Management for Kansas City International Airport (KCI) reports it has taken advantage of a new processing system for airplane lavatory waste that has provided better operating conditions, allowed for addition of new users and supported environmental improvement goals.
"Meanwhile, each unit was also located in a specific airline's lease space, allowing that airline to set usage rates for its competitors, which was considered not to be in everyone's best interest. In addition, that setup wasn't attractive for cargo carriers and general aviation users who didn't utilize the terminals."
After researching related experiences at other airports, the Department contracted a third-party developer to construct a single triturator for the three-terminal complex, at a central location away from the terminals and easily accessible to passenger airlines and other users. To enhance cost-effectiveness, other functions were added to the self-contained facility.
