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.

A reactor with predominantly longitudinal dimension has reaction volume of 3,000 m3.The influent has flow rate of 600 m3/day and concentration of Na+200 g/m3 and BOD 200 g/m3. Please answer the following:a. What is the hydraulic retention time? b. What would be concentration decay model along the relative length x=L/L0? c. If it is an ideal plug flow reactor, please calculate the concentration profile along the length of the reactor, e.g., x=0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1 of the total length if Na+ is a conservative species while BOD is degradable specie with reaction rate constant k = 0.4/day. d.

A Pump & Treat water treatment system at a contaminated site is designed to treat 5 m3/d of ground water in a reactor designed as a well mixed system. The effluent must meet quality standards of 25 mg/L of Iron. The treatment reactor’s 20 m3 volume is believed to be insufficient to achieve the standard. The ground water has an iron concentration of 100 mg/L and the treatment reactor has a kinetic constant of 0.5 d-1. – Confirm that the treatment system will NOT meet the effluent quality standards. – If not modify the design by adding a PFR system (using same treatment process and kinetics), what volume should the PFR addition be?

You are considering available options to meet new effluent quality standards for a particular contamination being treated at your plant. Currently you are operating with two reactors connected in parallel as shown in Figure 1(a). One reactor is a plug flow reactor (PFR), the other is a completely stirred tank reactor (CSTR). The following information is available: Design flow, Q: 60 L/min Influent concentration, Co: 10 mg/L Order of reaction: 1st Order Decay constant, k: 0.25 min! Volume of PFR, Vp: 360 L Volume of CSTR, Vc: 2280 L Using the above information, determine: a. The residence time, t, in each reactor; b. The effluent concentration from the PFR; C. The effluent concentration from the CSTR. d. The resulting effluent quality with the two reactors in parallel. You want to investigate whether operating these reactors in series will allow the required effluent standard of 0.25 mg/L to be met. You are therefore proposing the new configuration for the reactors shown in Figure 1(b)…
