A rapid sand filter comprising a number of filter beds is required to produce $99$ MLD of potable water. Consider water loss during backwashing as $5\%$, rate of filtration as 6.0 m/h and length to width ratio of filter bed as $1.35$. The width of each ... to take care of break-down, repair, and maintenance. The total number of filter beds required will be $19$ $20$ $21$ $22$

A city generates $40 \times 10^6$ kg of municipal solid waste (MSW) per year, out of which only $10\%$ is recovered/recycled and the rest goes to landfill. The landfill has a single life of $3$ m height and is compacted to a density of $550 \: kg/m^3$. If $80 \%$ of the landfill is assumed to be MSW, the landfill area (in $m^2$, up to one decimal place) required would be _______
