Cost waste collection

Tier 0 and Tier 1 costs are direct and indirect costs. They include the engineering, materials, labor, construction, contingency, etc., as well as waste-collection and transportation services (in many cases we simply transform an air pollution problem into a solid waste or wastewater problem that requires final treatment and disposal), raw-material consumption (increase or decrease), and production costs. Tier 2 and... 

Universal waste is a legal environmental term used in the United States. The Universal Waste Regulations in the United States streamline the collection requirements for certain hazardous wastes in the specific categories decided by the Federal and the State governments. The Universal Waste Regulations ease regulatory burdens on businesses promote proper recycling, treatment, or disposal and provide for efficient, proper, and cost-effective collection opportunities. 

Logistics of e-waste collection commonly involve three channels. Municipal collection sites usually accept any amount of waste from citizens, without cost. In-store retailer take-back schemes may be free or depend on repeat purchases. Direct producer take-back is generally for business customers and may require a replacement purchase.

Other utility systems. Other utility systems required in a refinery are electric power distribution, instrument air, drinking water, fire, water, sewers, waste collection, and so forth. Since these are difficult to estimate without detailed drawings, the cost is normally included in the offsite facilities. 

Accelerate the development of feedstock collection and conversion technologies capable of using low-cost, waste feedstocks (including cellulosic materials). 

Through the years, improved paints have been developed because of competition from environmental and consumer activists. The objective of improving overall quality and reducing emissions of VOCs has led to a wider selection of paint types. The user, therefore, must select a coating type that meets the cost of required application, equipment, energy costs for using, pollution and waste collection expenses, and application and cured performance requirements of the coating. 

Once the waste stream has been characterized, it is possible to select the proper materials of construction for waste treatment facility. Proper selection will prevent the waste collection and treatment systems from corroding, eroding, and/or falling apart when exposed to the waste stream. When selecting materials for the waste treatment system, one must consider an array of factors such as cost, ease of maintenance, replacement, and chemical compatibility for future potential chemical usage. It is in the best interest of the waste system design engineers, to the best of their ability, to select the proper materials of construction. 

On the other hand, Maker-A and -C strongly depended on recycled wood resources. The highest percentage of 90% was found in Maker-A. The use of recycled wood by PB maker in Japan differed according to the mill location. Generation of waste wood varied with the location and the cost of collection also varied with the distance between mill and generation point. 

Based on the potential benefits for source densification an economic analysis was performed to quantify the dollar savings (2). A model of the collection process was developed that allowed comparison of the cost of conventional waste collection with proposed densified waste collection. 

Parameters pertinent to solid waste collection costs used in the mathematical expressions are as follows ...

The Lead Recycling Committee discussed about the development of a low-cost lead collection system which should also comply with the Waste Disposal Law concerning cleaning and disposal of wastes. 

Minnesota law requires manufacturers of rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries or products containing those batteries to take responsibility for the costs of collecting and managing waste batteries to ensure that they do not enter the waste stream. Consumers are responsible for returning spent batteries to the collection points, which include retail... 

Vermont law bans the disposal of Ni-Cd, non-consumer mercuric-oxide, and small sealed lead-acid batteries in any district or municipality where an ongoing program exists for treating these wastes. Government agencies and industrial, communications, and medical facilities may not dispose of these battery types in MSW. Battery manufacturers must implement a system for the proper collection, transportation, and processing of these battery types and include the cost of collection in the sales transaction. Manufacturers must accept waste batteries returned to their facilities. 

At the present time, the commercialization of biomass energy is proceeding at the proverbial snail s pace. The excessive cost of synfoels from biomass in integrated growth, harvesting, and conversion systems, and from integrated waste collection and conversion systems, is the prime...
