Integrated Solid Waste Management

Integrated Solid Waste Management (ISWM) is a thorough waste suppression, compost, removal and recycling Program. An effective ISWM system considers how to suppress, manage and recycle solid waste in a manner that is most efficiently to protect human health and the surrounding. ISWM system requires evaluation of public wants and demands and then selecting and merging the most effective waste management activities for the proposed demands. The main ISWM activities for solid waste management are Waste prevention, Recycling and Composting, and Combustion and Removal and waste collection in a properly planned, constructed, managed and mitigated landfill areas. Each of these requires careful designing, financing, accumulation, and delivery of activities.

i) The Abesim Stone Works employs six people. Assuming that the density of uncompacted waste is 480 kg/m³? , determine the annual volume of solid waste produced by the stone works assuming a waste generation rate of 1 kg/cap^-1.day.
The influent of a sewage treatment plant has a TSS concentration of 118 mg/L. What is theconcentration of suspended solids in the plant effluent if the plant is achieving 92 percent TSSremoval efficiency? If the flow rate is 12 mgd, how many pounds of solids are discharged perday into the receiving stream?
A 76000 m'id domestic waste discharge has a concentration of 22 mg/L of ammonia nitrogen. If the receiving stream contains 1.5 mg/L and the maximum allowable concentration is 3.5 mg/L, compute the dilution of streamflow required in m'/s.
A reactive chemical disposed of by dilution in a river dissipates at a uniform rate of 0.15 mg/lper hour. The waste discharge is 7 million gallons per day containing 35 mg/l, while thestream has zero concentration with a flow above the sewer outfall of 102 ft3/s. If the meanvelocity in the river is 0.8 ft/s, calculate the distance downstream that the chemical residual persist.
A waste with a 5-day BOD (BOD)=200mg/L and k = 0.1 day¹ is discharged to a river at a rate of 1 m/s. The river has flow rate of 9 m/s and a background ultimate BOD (Lo) of 2 mg/L upstream of the discharge. (a) Calculate the ultimate BOD (Le) of the waste. (b) Furthermore, assuming instantaneous mixing after discharge, calculate Lo of the river water after it has received the waste. Ans.: (a) Ultimate BOD of wastewater = 508.3 mg/L, (b) Ultimate BOD of river water after discharge of waste-52.63 mg/L.

Just upstream of the release point, the river has a BOD of 3.6 mg/L and a DO of 7.6 mg/L. The saturation value of DO is 8.5 mg/L. The deoxygenation coefficient kd is 0.61/day, and the reaeration coefficient kx is 0.76/day. Assume complete and instantaneous mixing of the sewage and river.
