A city of 223567 residents has a waste generation rate of 0.18 cubic meters per day per resident. Based on studies, 43.7%of the waste will be incinerated and the remainder will be sent to a landfill. Of the total waste that goes to the incinerated, 1203% by volume of waste is generated and must be disposed of the landfill. Please calculate the cost of the landfill to be constructed for this city. Assume the following: Compaction factor of 51% Depth of land is 3.3m Landfill life span is 5 years Landfill cost is $33523 per acre
Example 10.5 Find the amount of land required in a sanitary landfill to dispose of urban waste of city of 40000 in population, knowing that Amount of waste generation = 2.0 kg/capita/d Refuse is filled into a depth of about 3 m.

A landfill with capacity of 26,220 yd and a maximum height of 20 feet, serves a population of 80,000 persons with a waste generation rate of 4.1 lb/capita/day. If the average final specific weight of the waste placed in the landfill is 1200 lb/yd, estimate the amount as delivered waste (expressed in yd') with an average density of 500 lb/yd', that can be placed in the landfill assuming that 30 % of the original waste will be lost through production of landfill gas
A town has a current population of 10,000, which is expected to double in 15 years. The town intends to dispose of its municipal solid waste in a 30-acre landfill that will be converted to a park in 20 years. Solid waste is generated at the rate of 5 lbm/capita-day. The average compacted density in the landfill will be 1000 lbm/yd3. Disregarding any soil addition for cover and cell construction, how long will it take to fill the landfill to a uniform height of 6 ft. 2100 days 4200 days 6300 days 9500 days Please I want you to solve this question and I don't want it to be similar to the one I upload in picture because this is wrong.
A municipality with a population of 120,000 is under state mandate to recycle 20% of the solid waste generated by its citizens. The remaining 80% will be landfilled. The per capita waste generation rate is 2.2 kg/day. The landfilled waste in-place maximum compacted density is 820 kg/m3, and the soil-cover-to-compacted-waste ratio is 1:4 by volume. The landfill covers a rectangular area 400 m by 500 m. The maximum landfill height cannot exceed 25 m with 1:1 side slopes. What is the operating life of the landfill?
A city generates waste at a rate of 7400,000 kg/day. The density of the compacted waste is 380 kg/m3. How large should they build a landfill to contain a decade's worth of waste if the ratio of cover to compacted fill will be 1.5? Give your answer in m3
Suppose a city of 50,000 people generates 40,000 tons of MSW per year. At current recovery and recycling rates, 22 percent of that is recovered or recycled and the rest goes to a landfill. Suppose also that the landfill density is 1,000 lb/yd^3, cell depth is 10 ft, and 80 percent of the cell is MSW.(a) What lift area would be required per year?(b) If the current landfill site covers 50 acres, including 10 acres needed for access roads and auxiliary facilities, and two more lifts are envisioned, how long would it take to complete this landfill?
(d) Calculate how many hectares of Malaysia's land is needed for sanitary landfill. If the total area of Malaysia is 330,803 km², how much land in Malaysia being used for sanitary landfill (in %). Given: Population: 32 million Average municipal solid waste (MSW) generation per capita: 1.5 kg/day MSW compacted unit weight=500 kg/m³ Design life of the sanitary landfill = 30 years Average fill depth: 10 m MSW to cover ratio: 4:1 1 hectare 10,000m² 1km² = 1,000,000 m²
Estimate the theoretical production of landfill gas (CH4 only) from the degradation of 20.3 kg of rapidly decomposable MSW. Assume the density of methane is 0.7177 kg/m3. Note:Hand written solution should not be used.
Can I get a thorough step by step for the following question? A sanitary landfill has available space 25 ha at an average depth 12 m. Nine hundred sixty-five (965) cubic meters of solid waste are dumped at the site each day for 5 days per week. This waste is compacted to twice its delivered density. Draw a mass-balance diagram and estimate the expected life of the landfill in years.
The landfill volume required for dry solid waste generated by a food factory per year is 400 m3. After drying the wet solid waste from the factory X% of it is recycled, followed by 2.5% diversion for composting and 500 m3 for incineration, before the remainder is sent to the landfill. Using the information given below: Density of dry solid waste = 425 kg/m3 Daily generation of wet solid waste = 1500 kg Moisture content of the wet solid waste = 38% Determine X% and estimate the dimensions of the landfill site if the length:width:depth = 5:4:7. QUESTION 2. Estimate the theoretical amount of slow decomposable solid waste (C20H29O9N) required to produce 65 m3of methane (CH4) using the equation below. Assume a 75% conversion and the density of methane is 0.7167 kg/m3. Use the equation below C20 H 29 O9 N + 9H20 = 11CH4 + 9H20 + NH3 C = 12, N = 14, H =1, O = 16 QUESTION 3. Briefly discuss factors that influence…
The Tatooine community will landfill plastic along with the inert material and rubber. Assuming that inert material and rubber together account for 54.8% of the remainder waste, determine the volume of the landfill if it is to operate for 24 years. The density of the compacted waste is 895 kg/m³. Recall that the community has a population of 600663 residents and generate 0.7 kg of solid waste per day per person. The main waste fractions are shown in the table below: Waste fraction Food waste Paper Plastic Yard waste Percent (%) 41.1 19.8 13.9 8.4 The remainder of the waste consists of metal, glass, inert material and rubber. Answer: * Om^3 Okm^3 You did not give the correct unit. The volume of the landfill is determined by calculating landfilled portion of the waste, that is the plastic content + the inert and rubber portion of the waste. The correct answer is: 9.51e5 m^3
