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.

Question

(a.) Predict the trophic state of a 10,000 m² (surface area) reservoir that is in steady state
and receives a total of 100 kg of Phosphorus per year from runoff from its watershed. The
amount of Phosphorus leaving the system over the dam leaving the reservoir is 80 kg of
Phosphorus per year. If the ratio of solid P to total P, a=0.5, the average settling velocity
of a grain of sediment is 0.1 m/day (Vs=0.1 m/d). (b.) What is the water flow rate through
the system?

Poorly treated municipal wastewater is continuously discharged directly into a lake. The discharge from the wastewater plant into the lake occurs at a flow of Qd = 1 m3/hr. The concentration of phosphate (PO43, M = 95 g/mol) in the discharge flow (Cxd) that is decaying with first-order kinetics is 100 mg/L. The lake is a well-mixed water body of 100 m3. (Phosphate is naturally uptaken by algae with a first- order decay rate constant equal to 0.20/day.) The concentration of phosphate in the incoming river (Cx,r) is 10 mg P/L. The incoming river flow rate is Q, = 10 m3/hr. %3D a) Which of the following equations represent the correct mass balance equation?

A wetland with a volume of 103m3 drains into pond with a volume of 106 m3. The concentration methylmercury (CH3Hg) in the wetland is 4 × 10-3 ng/L. The wetland is flowing into the pond at a rate of 103 m3 /day. Microbial processes are causing methylmercury to be generated within the pond at a rate of 100 ng/day. The pond has a concentration of 6 × 10-4 ng/L CH3 Methylmercury decays within the pond at a rate of 100 ng/day. The pond has an outflow of 103 m3/day. Is methylmercury mass increasing or decreasing in the pond? Show all mass balance calculations?
During a particular 30-days period, the streamflow flowing into a reservoir averaged 5.0 cubic meter per second. Water supply withdrawals from the reservoir averaged 136 mgd (million gallon per day). The only other outflow from the reservoir was 9.4 cm of evaporation from the reservoir water surface. The average water surface area of the reservoir during the 30 days was 3.75 sq.km. The reservoir had 12,560 ac-ft of water in storage at the beginning of the 30-days period. Determine the storage content at the end of the 30 days in units cu.m.
a municipality treats 15x10^6 gal/day of groundwater containing the following: CO2 =17.6 mg/L, Ca2+ = 80mg/L, Mg2+ = 48.8 mg/L, Na+ = 23mg/L, Alk (HCO3-) = 270 mg/L as CaCO3, SO4 2 =125mg/L and Cl- = 35mg/L. The water is to be softened by excess lime treatment. Assume that the soda ash is 90 percent sodium carbonate, and the lime is 85 percent weight CaO. Determine the lime and soda ash dosages necessary for precipitation softening (kg/day).
