Volumetric capacity residual

Estimation of conversion factor weight-volume of inert waste with high humidity for the calculation of volumes put at landfll

The calculation of the stored waste volume is a necessary operation for the proper management of landfll. The waste in input in the landfll are subjected, for legislation, to weighting; in practice, people use the conversion factors from tons to cubic meters to derive the residual volumetric capacity of the landfll. It is therefore very important to correctly estimate these coeffcients in order to correctly determine the residual volume than had been approved. In this study, specifcally, was estimated the value of the conversion coeffcient for inert waste.
