A sanitary landfill is being designed to handle solid waste generated by the town of Pietro, at a rate of 40 Mg/day. It is expected that the waste will be delivered by compactor truck on a 5 days/week basis. The density as spread is 129 kg/m3. It will be spread in 0.8 meter layers and compacted to 0.3 meters. Assuming 2 such lifts per day and a daily cover of 0.13 meters, box your answer the annual volume of landfill consumed in cubic meters. Ignore the soil volume between the stacks. Answer in two decimal value.Also In your solution Compute also the daily horizontal area covered by the solid waste.
