Question #2 (40 Points): An environmental engineer wants to evaluate three different methods for disposing of a non- hazardous chemical waste: land application, fluidized-bed incineration, and private disposal contract. The estimates are as follows: Contract First Cost 0 Annual Operating Cost Life Salvage Value at end of any year Land -150,000 -95,000 4 25,000 Incineration -900,000 -60,000 6 300,000 -140,000 2 0 Using an interest rate of 12%, determine the best alternative by: a) Using the PW Analysis with an infinite planning horizon. (16 Points) b) Using the PW Analysis with an 10-year study period. (14 Points) c) Using the AW Analysis considering the useful life of each alternative. Comment on the results.
