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.

8 Determine the solid loading rate on a secondary circular clarifier (diameter = 20 m) if the plant influent load is 2 ML/d. The recycle flow from secondary clarifier to the activated sludge system (aeration basin) is set to 10% of the influent load. It is also known that the aeration basin produces an MLSS (mixed liquor suspended solids) concentration of 3000 mg/L.
An industrial wastewater discharged at a flowrate of 1000 m³/d having 220 mg/l initial concentration of total suspended solids (TSS). If this wastewater is to be treated individually by one of the following processes: 1. Primary settling tank which should remove 60% of TSS. 2. Coagulation unit using 40 g ferric chloride (FeCl3) as a coagulant /m²³ of wastewater. The coagulation unit will remove 85% of TSS. Estimate the mass and volume of the sludge generated from each suggested unit. Assume the following sludge specification: Source of sludge Primary settling tank Coagulation tank Specific gravity 1.03 1.05 Moisture content 94% 92%

The City of Marietta has been directed by the City Board to upgrade its primary Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) to include a secondary treatment process that can meet an effluent standard of 20 mg/L of BODs and 20 mg/L of suspended solids (SS). They want to select completely mixed activated sludge system. The BOD5 of the SS is estimated to be 50% of the SS concentration. Assume L:W within 4:1 and maximum depth of 4.5 m and maximum length of 50 m for the tank. Assume the reasonable values of missing parameters from FE Exam Handbook. The effluent characteristics from the primary treatment process are: Flow = 0.150 m's, BOD5 =75 mg/L. Assume the values for the growth constants as K, = 100 mg/L BOD5, Mm = 2.5 d-1, kg = 0.05 d'1. Y = 0.50 mg VSS/mg BODs removed, MLVSS = 2,800 mg/L, MISS - 1.20 (MLVSS), wastewater temperature = 25.0°C. Assume 8% 02 transfer rate and BOD5 to BODu ratio as f = 68%.
