For a city of 3 million individuals discard 4lbs of solid waste per capita. Thirty percent of this waste is diverted to recycling. The remainder is compacted to a density of 1300 lb/yd3 and is landfilled into two 12-foot lifts per year. Assume that 18% of the volume will be necessary for daily cover. Find:a) Volume waste + cover

From the following date, estimate the unit waste disposal rate per week for a residentialarea consisting of 1200 homes. The average occupancy is 4 persons per home. Theobservation location is a local transfer station that receives all of the wastes collected fordisposal. The observation period was one week.Data:Number of compactor truck loads = 10Average size of compactor truck = 20 yd3Number of flatbed loads = 6Average flatbed volume = 3 yd3Number of loads from individual residents’ private cars and trucks = 20 Estimatedaverage volume per domestic vehicle = 9 ft3
Calculate the ultimate BOD of a waste that has a measured BOD5 of 24.6 mg·L-1, assuming a BOD rate coefficient (k) of 0.13 day-1.
(a) In the town of Abesim, it is determined that the per capita waste generation rate is 1.4 kg (3.1 lb) per person per day. The collection is conducted once per week by the municipality. If the density of MSW in a typical trash container is 150 kg/m3, how many 120 L (30 gal) containers would be needed for a family of four? (b) From (a), collection trucks have a capacity of 11.5 m3 (15 yd3), which can compact the waste to a density of 420 kg/m3. How many customers can a truck handle in a single run, before departing for the transfer station?
THIS IS NOT GRADED QUESTION, PLZ SOLVE IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. ENVIRONMENTALENGINEERING-2 Reg.NO: 5395 • In slide 2 and 3 increase the no of loads (Column 2) by 5. • Calculate the total load at the end of the day. • Calculate the capita (per home). The no of residences in the locality (from which the whole waste generates) is the last digit of your REGISTRATION NUMBER. For example, your registration number is19PWCIV 5395… the number of residences will be 5395

The landfill volume required for dry solid waste generated by a food factory per year is 300 m3. After drying the wet solid waste from the factory X% of it is recycled, followed by 2.5X% diversion for composting and 400 m3 for incineration, before the remainder is sent to the landfill. Using the information given below: Density of dry solid waste = 460 kg/m3 Daily generation of wet solid waste = 2200 kg Moisture content of the wet solid waste = 32% (ii) Determine X% and estimate the dimensions of the landfill site if the length: width : depth = 6:5:4
