Determine leachate generated in a cell in a 12-month period. You may assume that: -Percolation through the cover is 15in -Water consumed by waste decomposition is negligible (Life 1 contains mostly fresh waste) -Water loss as water vapor in landfill gas is negligible (again due to fresh waste) -Initial moisture content in fresh waste = 0.20 -Weight of waste in the lift = 3000 lb/yd² -Weight of cover = 1500 lb/yd² -The following sketch depicts water in and out of a waste lift. Water consumption by waste decomposition PER or leachate from above Water stored in waste Leachate generated Water loss as water vapor in landfill gas

Sources of Municipal Solid Wastes and composition of the wastes
A city receives 42 tons per day of a solid waste stream with chemical formula C4H17O to their waste to energy facility each day. Estimate the air requirements to combust this waste in cubic ft per day. Assume specific weight of air is 0.075 lb/cu ft and that air is 21% oxygen by weight.
Problem 6-6 (assume the waste is fed to an anaerobic digester, not landfilled). Use the equation given attached. Find x (moles of CH4) for food and paper as well. Then based moles of methane (x), individually calculate methane generated for paper and food waste and then total it. Provide answers in tons.

A waste water plant produces 1000 kg of dry solids per day at a moisture content of 95%. The solids are 70% volatile with a specific gravity of 1.05 and the remaining are non-volatile. Find the volume of volatile solids in m³ after digestion, which reduces volatile solids content by 50% and decreases the moisture content to 90%. Report your answer correct to two decimal places.
