1. A sanitary landfill has available space of 16.2 ha at an average depth of 10 m. Seven hundred sixty-five (765) cubic meters of solid waste are dumped at the site 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.
Problem-52, Disposal & Design of Sewage System (Civil) A landfill is to be designed for the population of 2,00,000. The solid waste generation is 1 kg/person/day. The density of uncompacted fill is 100 kg/m3. The compaction ratio is 3 and volume of landfill is 0.020 km3. The ratio of cover to compacted fill is 0.4. Calculate the number of years this landfill can be used.
Help me solve as soon as possible ! A city of 284053 residents has a waste generation rate of 0.2 cubic meters per day per resident. Based on Studies 64.6% of the waste will be recycled and the remainder of the total waste that goes to the recycling 16.07% by volume of waste is generated and must be disposed of in the landfill. Please calculate the size of the landfill in square kilometers. Assume the following 1) compaction factor of 57%, 2) the depth of the land is 3.3 meters, 3) the land fill life span is 6 years

Determine the area required for a new landfill site with a projected life span of 35 years, for a population of 200,000 generating 2.02 kg /capita/day. The density of the compacted waste is 470kg/m³. The height of the landfill cannot exceed 16 m.
A sanitary landfill has available space of 16.2 hectares at an average depth of 10 m. 765 m3 of solid waste are dumped daily at the landfill 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.
A sanitary landfill is being designed to handle solid waste generated by the town of Pietro, at a rate of 40 Mg/day. It is expected that the waste will be delivered by compactor truck on a 5 days/week basis. The density as spread is 129 kg/m3. It will be spread in 0.8 meter layers and compacted to 0.3 meters. Assuming 2 such lifts per day and a daily cover of 0.13 meters, box your answer the annual volume of landfill consumed in cubic meters. Ignore the soil volume between the stacks. Answer in two decimal value.Also In your solution Compute also the daily horizontal area covered by the solid waste.
Louis Vuitton buy an island of about 10,000 acres. Currently, it is occupied by 10000 persons generates refuse at an average rate of 4 lb / capita/day. As a way of giving back to the community, they save the 35 ac area as a landfill site, with an average depth of compacted refuse limited to 15 ft. LV estimated that the compacted refuse will have a unit weight of 480 lb/yard3 and that 75% of volume will be taken up by the compacted refuse. What is the area required per year (yard2/year)?
