CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

Background of the Study

Bacolod City's existing facility for getting rid of trash can only process up to

400MT/day, occupying landfill facilities on a total of 7.11 hectares of land, inner access

road and buffer zone. The disposal facility is located at Brgy. Felisa section of Bacolod

City in the southeast.

Municipal solid waste (MSW) management is a major issue in the countries

worldwide. This problem is more sensitive in developing countries, because the total

amount of MSW has dramatically increased due to rapid urbanization and

industrialization in the cities of developing countries.(Abdel-Shafy and Mansour 2018)

Solid waste management is considered a pressing global issue calling for an

immediate response from the government and its people. The Philippines has a

continuously rising amount of waste and is expected to further increase in the succeeding

years. As reviewed, associated problems with solid waste management in the country

include an increasing amount of solid waste, weak law implementation, scarcity of

sanitary landfills, and improper disposal. The ultimate solution existing in the country is

the RA 9003 or the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000 which highlights

the practices of segregation, proper disposal, and waste diversion. The importance of

envisioning a trash-free Philippines and encouraging people’s participation and

awareness is also emphasized. Another possible solution to solid waste management is

 2

valorization which can also address other environmental problems such as the depletion

of natural resources(Coracero et al. 2021)

Global rise in population and general economic growth experienced since the end

of the last global recession has enhanced the purchasing power of people and

consequently brought about an increase in the generation of municipal solid waste

(MSW). The solid waste management (SWM) sector has been identified to be responsible

for the emission of 5% of all greenhouse gas emissions globally. The fact that the SWM

sector is not among the industries with very high carbon footprints does not exonerate it

from utilizing available opportunities to curtail its carbon footprint and become more

sustainable.

To address these issues, many cities in developing countries focus one

establishing an integrated solid waste management system based on the 3Rs and trying to

reduce the amount of waste generation at source rather than later at the end-of-pipe.

However, these efforts are still very limited with a mix of results and relatively few

efforts have been made to regulate organic materials that usually comprise over 50% of

the total waste generation in the cities.(State 2020)

Theoretical framework

Resource utilization is one of the most effective and ecological ways to manage

the waste and extract the best use of it. Instead of discarded all of waste into landfills, a

large amount of organic and recyclable waste is considered a valuable source of

alternative energy, raw materials, and byproducts. As such, it is essential to manage

 4

waste with appropriate technologies for greater management outcomes and more rigorous

in monitoring and evaluating SWM system.

Comparing people’s perception on waste in past decades to the current situation,

solid waste has increasingly gained more attention on its values rather than being

discarded substances. Waste utilization has widely been implemented in numerous ways

ranging from a small scale at household level to a very large scale as a power plant. In

Asia, waste utilization methods include, for example, composting, recycling, refuse

derived fuel (RDF) or solid recovered fuel (SRF), incineration, pyrolysis, and

gasification. Important factors of the success in waste utilization are appropriateness of

technologies, readiness of facilities and skilled staff together with quality and quantity of

waste. Factors that affect performance of resource recovery process are heterogeneity of

waste, uncertainty of supply, unproven technology, administrative and industrial

constraints, legal restriction, and uncertain market. Techniques that are involved in waste

volume reduction and utilization are generally done by compaction (mechanically

reduces volume of waste), chemical volume reduction (combustion or digestion); and

mechanical size reduction (shredding, grinding, and milling), and component separation

(hand-sorting, air separation, magnetic separation, and screening),

Incineration is a process of burning combustible components materials. Generally,

this method is operated under two systems namely open or closed systems. In the open

system, waste is incinerated in a chamber open to the air, whereas the closed system

contains a special chamber designed with various parts to facilitate incineration.

Incinerators in both systems require a chimney of appropriate height to provide a good

flow of air through the combustion chamber. Sizes of incinerators can be varied
 5

depending on waste volume to be incinerated. Getting a proper site as a location for

incineration can be burdensome. To have a proper management, skilled staff are highly

important for operation and maintenance the system.

Municipal solid waste leachate, a kind of wastewater, can severely damage the

environment and contaminate the groundwater because of its high organic matter and

toxic heavy metal concentrations. Due to its complex composition, this wastewater must

be properly treated prior to being discharged into the environment. In recent decades,

several biological approaches (e.g., bioremediation, phytoremediation, and bioreactors)

and physicochemical processes (e.g., coagulation/flocculation, air stripping, and

advanced oxidation processes) have proven effective at removing the organic load and

the toxicity of this effluent. Physicochemical treatments have been applied as

pretreatment or post-treatment steps for biological processes, but these methods do not

always provide satisfactory results and can cause secondary pollution in some cases. In

addition, owing to the high concentrations of organic matter, ammonia, and trace metals

in landfill leachate, combined approaches to leachate treatment have been reported to be

efficient. This article highlights the advantages and drawbacks of these approaches to the

treatment of leachate by providing an updated overview of the various methods that have

been successfully applied in this field. Further studies should focus on improving landfill

leachate treatment to maximize removal performance.

Scope and Limitation of the Study

This study will concentrate on developing solid waste treatment facility in Brgy.

Felisa Bacolod City. The researcher decides to focus only on the analysis and design of a

proposed solid waste treatment plant in the city of Bacolod in relation to the degree of
 6

implementation of RA 9003 - Solid Waste Management Act of 2000. The program

provided by LGUs places a lot of emphasis on waste collection and waste segregation,

and it would be one of its goals. (a) The knowledge of managing solid waste, (b) and the

practices for managing solid waste. Nevertheless, there are numerous equipment

manufacturers, a variety of chemicals various methods that are used to treat solid waste;

thus, it is beyond the researchers' expertise.

Significance of Study

The study will be beneficial to the following:

Local Government of Bacolod City. The result of the study will help the

officials of Bacolod City in complying with the provisions of RA 9275 (Clean Water

Act), RA 9003 (Ecological Solid Waste Management Act) and with the conditions

stipulated in their Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) under PD 1586

(Philippine Environmental Impact Statement System). It will also aid as a guide in the

planning process for the construction of a sanitary landfill in the future. Moreover, it is

beneficial in the formulation of policies for local waste management and health

prevention in their jurisdiction and raising awareness of the inhabitants on waste disposal

and hygiene.

Environment. The landfill's leachate could be dangerous and contaminated. the

water sources if it is dumped untreated because it could seep through the soil and reach

water aquifers. The purpose of this study is to highlight the significance of biological

leachate treatment facilities for preventing leachate pollution of surface and ground

water.
 7

Community. The project could provide community members with knowledge or

understanding of the significance of a solid waste treatment facility's effluent discharge to

waterways, streams, or any body of water that might have an impact on the ecosystem or

the living community in the stream, such as the flora and animals.

Academe. It's possible to archive this research and use it as a source or reference

in the future. by an academic organization's prospective member who is looking for a

topic the person should do research before doing something.

Upcoming researchers. Future researchers may use the study's baseline data to

construct a comprehensive solid waste treatment plant, landfill, or waste disposal site.

School. The proposed study serves the School, personnel as their references or

guide in creating their program concerned with Waste Segregation.

Student. Providers of waste management services can assist you in correctly

separating waste, recycling it after collection, and streamlining the entire system to

reduce waste output.

The researcher conceptualized the system based on the fact that waste is generated

from different sources and this waste is of different types depending on where it is being

generated. The different sources of waste are the residential areas, industries, commercial

areas, institutions, farms and construction companies etc. These sources generate

different types of waste which can be categorized into domestic waste, industrial waste,

toxic waste, biodegradable waste etc. Waste types can be handled, stored and transferred

differently. Each waste type can be separated at the source if the waste receptacle is

determined.

This proposal which is the Solid Waste Management Center (SWMC) has 3

facilities including Material Recovery Facility, Leachate treatment plan, and incineration

plant. This proposal design of Solid Waste Management Center (SWMC) is a sustainable

project it will sustain useable water by cleaning waste water and electricity by burning

waste to convert into energy this has a negative environmental impact thus this issue

overcome by putting air pollution control system.

Definition of terms

Conceptual

Solid Waste Management Center Waste minimization or reduction at source is

the most desirable activity, because the community does not incur expenditure for waste
handling, recycling and disposal of waste that is never created and delivered to the waste
management system. However, it is an unfamiliar activity as it has not been included in
earlier waste management systems.
 9

Waste segregation is the sorting and separation of waste types to facilitate

recycling and correct onward disposal. When waste is sorted correctly, it can save your
company money. Waste segregation should be based on: The type of waste. The most
appropriate treatment and disposal.

Solid Waste Management Center - Solid waste management facility means any
solid waste disposal area, volume reduction plant, transfer station, or other facility, the
purpose of which is the storage, collection, transportation, treatment, utilization,
processing, recycling, or disposal, or any combination thereof, of solid waste.

Sanitary landfill designed that leachate is collected and treated, as much surface
water as is practicable should be kept from entering the fill.

Leachate Pond remove harmful constituents so the treated water can be safely
discharged to receiving waters.

Ecological Solid Waste Management Act and Factors Influencing Solid Waste

Management in Barangay Pansol of Quezon City, the Philippines

With rapid increase in population and economic growth, the Republic of the

Philippines is facing a major challenge for effective management of its growing

municipal waste. The government has enacted the Republic Act 9003, which is also

called the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000, to overcome the challenges

of waste management.(Maskey, Maharjan, and Singh 2016)

awareness to improve the practice of waste management and parents should also be given

environmental education during parent teaching meetings or in community-based

programs but awareness may not easily be translated into practices.(Madrigal and

Oracion 2018)

This study shows that improvements in Solid Waste Management can be

accomplished by allocating sufficient funds and efforts into changing the behaviour of

households. It is recommended further that funding for the usual solid waste management

interventions such as landfill and recycling must be implemented only if waste generation

is avoided via proper resource planning and if waste segregation is strictly implemented

through incentive programs or awareness initiatives.

Resource Recovery through RDF: Current Trends in Solid Waste Management in

the Philippines

Solid waste management has always been about collection and disposal of garbage. We

have currently moved on to a more efficient collection and disposal by using Engineered

Sanitary Landfills in the Philippines. However, with the increase in population and the

consequent increase in solid waste generation, we are now running out of spaces to

establish solid waste disposal facilities.(Sapuay 2016)

This mandate has posed a huge challenge to the LGUs considering their capacity both in

terms of the technical and financial aspects(Atienza 2019)

Synthesis of the literature

 15

Increasing municipal solid waste (MSW) generation has become not only a major

sustainability challenge and a considerable financial burden for municipalities across the

globe, but also an opportunity to promote a circular economy, provided adequate

information is made available. (He et al., 2022) Multiple factors like population density

with high degree of commercialization and rapid urbanization has resulted in problems of

solid waste disposal which produce 120,000 tons of solid waste per day in India (2014)

and its detrimental consequences. (De & Debnath, 2016) Waste has a long history of

association with humans and other organisms. It is inevitable and has different sources

right from crop residues (agriculture), food production and its movement through food

chain, industries and their processes.(Farooqi et al. 2021) According to the National Solid

Waste Management Commission (NSWMC), in 2016, 40,000 tons of waste was

produced daily in Philippines, of which 12,000 remained uncollected, and the country is

considered the largest contributor of plastic in the ocean. The World Bank estimated that

the production of waste would increase by 165%, doubling in 2025.(Zortea 2019) Waste

management is one of the solutions that tends to provide programs and to create

mechanisms, encouragements and funds that hold responsibilities in implementing

ordinances and laws of local government units.(Rodelas et al., 2020) The waste

management processes typically involve numerous technical, climatic, environmental,

demographic, socio-economic, and legislative parameters. Such complex nonlinear

processes are challenging to model, predict and optimize using conventional methods.

(Abdallah et al., 2020) During the last two decades, EU legislation has put increasing

pressure on member countries to achieve specified recycling targets for municipal

household waste. These targets can be obtained in various ways choosing collection

methods, separation methods, decentral or central logistic systems. (Bing et al., 2016).

CHAPTER II

METHODOLOGY
 17

This chapter includes Parameters Considered in Planning, Design, program of

works, estimates and operation of Solid Waste Management Center. It also contains the

proposed projects flow of works. This section of the study will be beneficial to the future

researcher in determining whether or not their proposed project is feasible.

Material Recovery Facility

The Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) building is comprised of different

functioning areas, some of which may overlap. At the receiving end of the facility, areas

include the vehicle unloading bays, material storage space, and processing system in-

feed. Received material, rejected materials, and commodity storage space areas should

also be considered in the facility design, because the storage requirements may be

significant at some facilities. Typically, MRF facilities have a flat floor, where the

maneuvering, unloading, and material storage all occur on the same floor level. The

processing equipment may have an elevated or in-ground in-feed conveyor or shredder.

Designing an MRF facility, the waste stream composition must be analyzed to

determine what materials will be targeted and the anticipated material quantities or

volumes of the individual materials that will be received at the facility.

Floor plan of Material recovery facility

This solid waste treatment facility has a lot of 1138 sqm and the slab of elevation

in the natural grade line (NGL) into the finish floor line (FFL) is 91 cm. and has a

thickness of 15 cm. It features 5 (6m x 6.3m) rooms for the recovered waste each room

and has opening of 3m wide to easily load the recovered waste into loading trucks, and

(12m x 17m) consist of Office, Operators room, Dining hall, and toilets.
 18

Leachate treatment Facility

A leachate is any liquid that, in the course of passing through matter, extracts

soluble or suspended solids, or any other component of the material through which it has

passed. In order to adjust the quality and amount of leachate, the regulating tank is a

necessary unit for leachate treatment. The regulating pool is designed for 3 to 6 months of

leachate volume.

As a quality regulating unit, the regulating pool should ensure a thorough mix of

all types of leachates. It will also work as an anaerobic bioreactor and settling tank so that

air should be isolated and sludge should be discharged as soon as possible.

Plan of Leachate Treatment Facility

Leachate Treatment Facility has 2 (3.5m diameter) regulating tank serve as

Anaerobic Bioreactor to isolate air and discharge large amount of sludge, a regulating

pool has (15m x15m) divided into 6 chamber effective depth of chamber is 3 ~ 7 m, and

2 (3.5m diameter) tank for final water treatment process

Construction flow

Engineers need a properly prepared site to start a project. This is the procedure

must be considered before any project could start with civil engineering projects starts

from the site preparation of leveling. It could be site clearing, site surveying, soil testing,

site plan design, site investigation, environmental concerns, coordinating and how

everything in the in the project should achieve. Preparing your site properly could help

your project must safer, secure, and more productive to the environment

CHAPTER IV

FINDINGS, CONCLUSION, AND RECOMMENDATION

The establishment and closure of landfills could pose a potential hazard to ground

water, due to leachate seepage, and air quality due to gases released. Unless proper

maintenance and management is sustained for a fairly long time, public health may be

compromised as a result. Such management is costly and potentially dangerous if faulty.

Thus, a safer and more sustainable approach may be minimizing the number of landfills

constructed and insuring their longevity so as not to continue taking viable land for waste

disposal.

RECOMMENDATION

Problem: Factories need to reduce the volume and toxicity of waste generated. Also, in

certain areas of the state infrastructure does not exist to manage unregulated hazardous

waste properly.

Recommendation: The goals of the plan should also include reducing the amount and

toxicity of unregulated hazardous waste generated, managing special problem wastes, and

stimulating the market for recyclables. Current statewide initiatives to promote waste

prevention should continue for both the public and private sectors.

Problem: junkyards potentially represent a public safety and health hazard. Currently they

are under municipal authority as well as under the jurisdiction of the agency of

transportation, which has no active enforcement program to address this problem.

 37

Recommendation: As the distinction between junkyards and materials processing

facilities may be blurred, consideration should be given to applying and enforcing the

same regulations for junkyards that are now in force materials processing facilities.
