Suppose that the total waste generation for a city over 20 years is 2 million tons. The average density of compacted waste at the landfill is 400kg/m and the city can achieve the diversion rate of 40%. Assuming the average net depth of 20m (i.e. 20m of actual solid waste) for the landfill cells, what is the required landfill net area (only for the waste)? (1 Ha. = 10000 m²)
