Expert Solution

● A mechanical biological treatment system is a type of munciple waste processing facility that combines a sorting facility and a form of biological treatment such as composting or anaerobic digestion.

MBT plants are designed to process mixed household waste as well as commercial and industrial wastes.

● They can also done separately like sorting in mechanical treatment and composting and anarobic digestion in biological treatment.

● Physico-chemical treatment of wastewater focuses primarily on the separation of colloidal particles. This is achieved through the addition of chemicals (called coagulants and flocculants).

◆ The results showed that raw Munciple solid waste management by landfill (mechnical method) was the worst management option because it affects the ground water quality.

Composting (biological), Incineration (physicochemical) the large amounts of chemicals consumption for fly ash and exhaust treatment were also issues leading to relatively higher life cycle environmental, social and economical impacts.

If helpful then give ?.

Thank you.

Waste management is a challenging issue for the Sultanate of Oman due to high waste generation rates and scarcity of disposal sites. With population of almost 3 million inhabitants, the country produced about 1.6 million tons of solid waste in 2010. The per capita waste generation is more than 1.5 kg per day, among the highest worldwide. Solid waste in Oman is characterized by very high percentage of recyclables, primarily paper (26%), plastics (12%), metals (11%) and glass (5%). However...
