Concept explainers

Integrated Solid Waste Management

Integrated Solid Waste Management (ISWM) is a thorough waste suppression, compost, removal and recycling Program. An effective ISWM system considers how to suppress, manage and recycle solid waste in a manner that is most efficiently to protect human health and the surrounding. ISWM system requires evaluation of public wants and demands and then selecting and merging the most effective waste management activities for the proposed demands. The main ISWM activities for solid waste management are Waste prevention, Recycling and Composting, and Combustion and Removal and waste collection in a properly planned, constructed, managed and mitigated landfill areas. Each of these requires careful designing, financing, accumulation, and delivery of activities.

15 mL of raw wastewater wasadded into a 300-mL BOD bottle, which was then filled up with 285 mL pure water. The DO concentration in the mixed sample before incubation is 7.8 mg/L. The sample wasincubated for 5 days and the final DO wasfound to be 2.4 mg/L. What is theBOD5of the raw wastewater?
You are the Environmental officer for the new Dangote Cement Plant in Kitwe with a permit to discharge a treated waste stream into the center of the Kafue river at a flow rate of 2 m3s-1. The river has a square cross-section with an area of 20m2. Under standard operating procedures the discharge is fully treated before release. The discharge is monitored, and if the chemical concentration in the waste stream becomes elevated above a safety threshold of 100 mgl-1 the factory will shut-down. However, the response time for the shut down is 100 seconds. You are asked to prepare an environmental impact report for a fish hatchery located 1km downstream of the plant. The hatchery draws water from the Kafue river to flush the hatchery tanks. Based on studies of chronic exposure to juvenile fish the safety standard at the hatchery is set at C = 0.5 mgl-1 Write an expression describing the concentration experienced at the hatchery. Then, for each scenario below find the peak concentration and…
