Which type of recyclable material had the greatest increase in tonnage recycled during the period from 1960 to 2018 and why?
, Conduct a mass balance to determine the amount of (a) ash, (b) water and (c) dry exhaust produced during incineration, and (d) the amount (mass) of air needed given the following information: waste is supplied at 5000 tons/day, it has a moisture content of 30% and the ash content is 15%. The as-fired energy content is 5950 Btu/lb and you plan to use 150% excess air.

. For a composition of city waste given as (Paper, wood, cardboard) = 53%, (Garbage)=22%, (Ceramics, glass, crockery) = 10 %, (Metals) = 8 % and (Rubber, plastics, discarded textiles) =7 %. Population of the city is 4 million. The waste generation rater per person per year is 0.138 tons/capita/year. How much waste in tons can be recycled? How much waste in tons must be collected in order to keep the city clean?
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.
