SOLVE ALL THE NUMERICALS AND GIVE THE ANSWER
IF NEEDED MAKE APPROPRIATE ASSUMPTIONS AND STATE THAT.
1. Calculate the power required by a shredder to operate for a throughput of 50td of MSW
having a work index of 450kWhton, considering the 80% passing size of the feed and the
product as 25cm and 1cm, respectively.
2. Determine the recovery and purity of metal and overflow in a screen-based process applied
to 150th of MSW with 12% metals, given that the weight of underflow is 20th and the weight
of metals in the overflow is 1.5th. Determine the overall efficiency of the screening process.
3. What is the difference between a hauled container system and a stationary container system?
4. Solid waste from a new industrial park is to be collected in large containers (drop boxes),
some of which will be used in conjunction with stationary compactors. Based on traffic studies
at similar parks, it is estimated that the average time to drive from the garage to the first.
container and from the disposal site to the garage each day will be 15 and 20min, respectively.
The average time required to drive between two containers and collect waste is 8min, the truck
makes 2 trips a day, where the one-way distance to the disposal site is 25km(speed limit: 88
kmh), and the average time spent to offload waste to the dispesal site is 20 min. The crew is
given two 15-min breaks per day. Determine the number of containers that can be emptied per
day, based on an 8-hour workday.
5. For the given waste stream:
a. Determine the Moisture content of the waste stream?
b. Determine wet and dry density of the waste stream?
c. If 50% of paper, and 100% of cardboard and plastics are separated from the waste stream to
be recycled, how would this affect the moisture content and the wet and dry density
