Prepared by the Civil Engineering Innovative Technology Evaluation Center, a CERF innovation center serving the engineering and construction industries. This report presents a CEITEC evaluation of the Trevipark automated parking system, which was developed, designed, and supplied by TREVI S.p.A., of Cesena, Italy. The evaluation is designed to determine the benefits and limitations of Trevipark for use as a technically viable automated vehicle parking system. The evaluation focused on data collection, site inspections, and analyses. The Trevipark system consists of a cylindrical enclosure with a central elevator system to park and store vehicles in a radial pattern. This proprietary system is intended to provide safe and secure parking for lower cost, smaller site and space requirements, less retrieval time, and other advantages.

Prepared by the Environmental Technology Evaluation Center (EvTEC), a service center of CERF/IIEC. This Technology Verification report describes the nature and scope of the environmental evaluation of the performance of the Plasma Enhanced Melter? (PEM?) system for waste treatment. The evaluation was conducted through a cooperative program established in 1998 between the Washington State Department of Ecology, Integrated Environmental Technology Inc., Allied Technology Group, and the Civil Engineering Research Foundation. The goal of this report is to provide potential users and purchasers of the PEM? system with information they need to make more informed decisions regarding the performance of PEM? as an equivalent or alternative to incineration for treating hazardous waste.
