Imagine you have been hired as a consulting engineer by a city to investigate the possible use of landfill gas generated by the expected decomposition of different types of municipal solid waste. for your calculations, assume maximum theoretical landfill gas production will be applicable by neglecting the production of new bacterial cells as described in our textbook. (a) estimate the percent (by volume) of landfill gas that is methane from a rapidly decomposing waste with an assumed composition of c68h111o50n. (b) estimate the percent (by volume) of landfill gas that is methane from waste hardwood lumber, which has an assumed composition of c88h126o55n3.

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
