A new landfill site is to be designed with a projected
life of 32 years for a population of 220000 generating 2.27 kg
waste/capita/day. The density of the compacted waste is 537 kg/m3.
The height of landfill cannot exceed 13 meters. Please use the
knowledge of solid waste management (especially landfill design) to
describe the area (width x length) required for that landfill, if:
a. The landfill does not have slopes
b. The landfill has slopes (3:1 ratio)
Solution is attached in the image Posted below.
Hope it helps.
