Transfer Station
Alternative to direct haulJustified when cost to transport
waste from generation point to disposal site is greater than cost to transport from generation point to transfer station plus haul to the disposal site

Benefits
Large trailers replace many collection vehicles
Get collection vehicles back to work rapidly
Locate disposal site far from population areas
Opportunity to inspect waste Opportunity to process waste Use multiple disposal sites

Problem Statement
Determine the break-even haul time between a direct haul system and a transfer station operation with the following properties:
Direct haul system uses a 10 yd3 container Direct haul cost = $20/hr The transfer trailer has a capacity of 100
yd3
Tractor- trailer haul cost = $40/hr
![Page 40: Transfer Stations. Transfer Station Alternative to direct haul Justified when cost to transport waste from generation point to disposal site is greater](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649cb15503460f9497707c/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
TS Facility Costs
Function of amortized capital cost, capacity, operating costs– Cost $3,750,000 (for bldg, equipment,
tractor/trailer)– Capacity of 300,000 yd3 per year– CRF is 0.08 (capital recovery factor is a
function of interest rate and years to pay off – converts capital cost to $/yr), yr-1
– TS operating cost is $225,000/yrNormalize all costs by capacity

TS total cost/yd3 = annual capital cost plus annual op cost
Amortize Capital cost: = $3,750,000 x 0.08 = $300,000/yr
Total annual costs: ($300,000 + $225,000) yr-1 = $525,000/yr
Cost/yd3:($525000/yr)/300,000 yd3/yr = $1.75/yd3
Step 1a: Calculate Capital Cost Elements (TS)

Step 1b: Calculate Hauling Operating Cost
TS trailer haul operating cost =
$40/hr/100 yd3 = $0.40/hr-yd3
Direct haul operating cost = $20/hr/10 yd3 = $2.00/ hr-yd3

Class Example
A community which generates waste at a rate of 90 tons/day (7 days/wk) is considering the use of a transfer station. The community already owns collection vehicles so their cost can be ignored. Develop the appropriate cost equations and determine the break-even haul time for the following conditions:

Problem Data – Direct HaulDirect Haul System
– Vehicle Capacity = 8 tons– Hauling Cost = $30/hr
![Page 47: Transfer Stations. Transfer Station Alternative to direct haul Justified when cost to transport waste from generation point to disposal site is greater](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022081514/56649cb15503460f9497707c/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Problem Data - TS
– Present day Facility cost (operating and capital) = $5000 per ton of capacity/day
– Trailer cost = $30,000 ea– Trailer capacity = 30 ton– Trailer hauling cost = $35/hr– Work Week = 5 days*– Use 1 tractor and 3 trailers– CRF = 0.12– Tractor cost = $50,000 ea
*Hint: determine the design capacity of the station Based on a 5 day work week. Calculate total facility cost using this value.
