4 Solid waste from a park is to be collected in large containers. It is estimated that the average time to drive from the garbage to the first container t, and from the last container t₂ to the garbage each day will be 15 and 20 minutes, respectively. If the average time required to drive between the containers is 360 seconds and the two-way distance to the disposal site is 50 km (speed limit 88 km/hr), determine the number of containers that can be emptied per day, based on an 8-hour work day. Note: at 88 km/hr speed, a = 0.016, b=0.011; S = 0.133, W=0.15; P + U = 0.4 h/trip.

O Solid waste from a park is to be collected in large containers. It is estimated that the average time to drive from the garbage to the first container t, and from the last container t₂ to the garbage each day will be 15 and 20 minutes, respectively. If the average time required to drive between the containers is 360 seconds and the two-way distance to the disposal site is 50 km (speed limit 88 km/hr), determine the number of containers that can be emptied per day, based on an 8-hour work day. Note: at 88 km/hr speed, a = 0.016, b=0.011; S = 0.133, W=0.15; Pc+U= 0.4 h/trip.
Street is 1000 foot long and homes are 50 feet apart on both sides of the road. Two person crew are employed to collect the recyclables in green roll out containers. It takes 30 seconds to empty the contents to each green container into the truck and set out amount of 12 kgs . Estimate the total time to collect recyclables.
Calculate the number of stops in each trip of 1.50 h of refuse collection for the following data v= velocity = 15 km/h – 4.17 m/s d= distance= 750 m n = number of containers to empty per stop=1 tc= time to empty one bin/container= 650 s
Assume it cost an average of $0.03/ton.min to haul waste from collection to transfer station and then from the transfer station to landfill using a transfer vehicle and the operation cost of the transfer station is $2/ton. The cost of hauling waste directly from the collection point to landfill is $0.1/ton.min. The speed limit of any type of vehicle carrying waste between the collection point, the transfer station, and the landfill is 40 miles/hr. At/above what distance (miles) is using a transfer station more economical? Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Show your work.
A community of 100,000 people wants to initiate public garbage collection and disposal to a landfill that is 30 miles away. The collection frequency is once a week. For garbage transportation to the landfill, there are two options: no transfer station and a transfer station that is 10 miles away from the community and is on the way to the landfill. Determine: Total transportation cost for the no transfer station option. Total transportation cost for the transfer station option. Breakeven point (for the two options), if the transfer station can be placed anywhere on the way to the landfill. Your answer must be in term of distance between the station and the community. Assumptions/given information: Generation rate: 4 lbs/person/day. As collected density: 200 lb/yd3. Collection truck size of 20 yd3 with a compaction ratio of 3. Transfer truck/trailer size of 60 yd3 with no compaction capability. Costs: 30 cents per mile per collection truck, 10 cents per mile per transfer…
