Aim The aim of this module is to provide the students with
knowledge and practical insight of the important concepts,
fundamental principles, design, and operation of an
engineered landfill.
Learning Outcomes
• Describe and evaluate appropriate methods to minimize
the impact to the public’s health from solid waste related
activities.
• Develop a more informed opinion on a variety of solid
waste related issues.
Tasks
Requirement for the CW-2
The students are expected to complete the given tasks. They can refer class lectures, textbook,
reference books, and other available credible resources like Be’ah and UNEP etc.
S.No Tasks
1
Draw a neat sketch of Integrated Solid Waste Management (ISWM) hierarchy.
Critically evaluate how Integrated Solid Waste Management (ISWM), minimizes the
impacts and protects public health in the context of Oman.
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
1
F/QAP/021/001
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.
3
Evaluate Gasification process for waste treatment. Gasification is yet to be
implemented in Oman. Explain following with respect to solid waste gasification.
a) Concept of gasification process
b) Steps of Gasification process
c) Types of gasifiers with sketch
4
Thermochemical conversion of waste is used in the incineration process which gives
direct heat with the volume reduction of waste. An incinerator is being built for the
treatment of (Your student number) tons of organic waste near the Alamrat Landfill
site. As a solid waste expert, you have been asked to assess the amount of air
required for the complete combustion of the given amount of organic solid waste
with the C5H12 formula.
Amount of organic waste in Tons = Take your student number
The specific weight of air is 1.201kg/m3
Dry air contains 23.15% of oxygen by weight
5
Why would gas control measures be implemented at Al-Amerat landfill in Oman?
Suggest some appropriate Gas Management Systems which can help in the Gas
Recovery from the landfill.
6
Estimate rapid gas production in m3 for the MSW placed in Al-Amerat landfill for the
following data:
• Weight of MSW in Tons = your student number.
• Gas production rate = 0.60 m3/kg of rapidly degradable MSW destroyed.
• The MSW has 30% moisture at the time of placement.
• The rapidly degradable material is 40% of the waste placed.
• 50% of the rapidly degradable material is available for decomposition.
7
Al Amerat landfill is the first engineered sanitary landfill in Oman which began its
operations in early 2011. The landfill site consists of many landfills; the first landfill is
expected to complete in the end of this year. Good landfill restoration provides an
opportunity for landfill operators to promote public acceptance of landfills. Restoration
is a process which will return a site to a condition suitable for its proposed after use
whilst incorporating measures to protect human health and the environment. Suggest
Closure, Post Closure Plan and Landfill Aftercare Plan and After Use for the first
landfill in Al Amerat. (Solid waste related issues)

Integrated Solid Waste Management in context of Oman
Draw a neat sketch of Hauled Container System.
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 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 off-route factor W is equal to 0.12.
Evaluate Gasification process for waste treatment. Gasification is yet to be implemented in Oman. Explain
following with respect to solid waste gasification.
Concept of gasification process
Gasification is a process that converts organic or fossil fuel based carbonaceous materials into carbon monoxide, hydrogen and carbon
dioxide. This is achieved by reacting the material at high temperatures (>700 °C), without combustion, with a controlled amount
of oxygen and/or steam.
Steps of Gasification process
Dehydration, Pyrolysis, Gasification, Reversible Phase
Types of gasifiers with sketch
Thermochemical conversion of waste is used in the incineration process which gives direct heat with the volume
reduction of waste. An incinerator is being built for the treatment of (Your student number) tons of organic waste near
the Alamrat Landfill site. As a solid waste expert, you have been asked to assess the amount of air required for the
complete combustion of the given amount of organic solid waste with the C5H12 formula.
Why would gas control measures be implemented at Al-Amerat landfill in Oman? Suggest
some appropriate Gas Management Systems which can help in the Gas Recovery from the
landfill.
