Chapter 10 Disposal of Solid Wastes and Residual Matter 10.7 A). Determine the impact of a resource recovery program on landfill area requirement, in which 40% of the paper, 60% of the glass, and 80% of tin cans are recovered. Knowing that the previous land fill was designed for a city of 40 000 in population, Amount of waste generation = 2.5 kg/capita/d refuse is filled into a depth of about 3 m.

Landfills are dynamic systems, with several design components. Using no more than three sentences explain why some types of waste are more suitable for final disposal through landfills than other kinds of waste. Very briefly outline the impact of poorly designed landfills on water quality.
From the following date, estimate the unit waste disposal rate per week for a residential area consisting of 1200 homes. The average occupancy is 4 persons per home. The observation location is a local transfer station that receives all of the wastes collected for disposal. The observation period was one week. Data: Number of compactor truck loads = 10 Average size of compactor truck = 20 yd³ Number of flatbed loads = 6 Average flatbed volume = 3 yd³ Number of loads from individual residents' private cars and trucks = 20 Estimated average volume per domestic vehicle = 9 ft³
Example 7-2 Selection of container size for use at a commercial facility A commercial facility produced the following quantities of solid waste each week for a calendar quarter of operation. Using these waste production data, determine the size of container at which it becomes more cost effective to make extra pickup trips, on call instead of using a larger-sized container. Assume the data given below are applicable. 1. Waste production data Week no. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 2.
