2 a) Draw a neat sketch of Hauled Container System.
b) Municipal solid waste from the Al-Khuwair area is to be collected in hauled containers in conjunction with stationary compactors. It is estimated that the average time to drive from garage to the first container location (t1) and from the last container F/QAP/021/001 2 location to the garage (t2) each day will be 20 min and 25 min respectively. If the average time required to drive between the containers is 3 min and the one-way distance to the Al Amerat is 20 km (speed limit: 72 km/h). Determine the number of containers that can be emptied per day, based on an 8-h workday. Assume the offroute factor W is equal to 0.12.
