Now, moisture content of <strong>the</strong> waste can be represented by <strong>the</strong> equation for moisture<br />

content of <strong>the</strong> waste, i.e.<br />

MC<br />

i<br />

ρV2<br />

=<br />

ρV<br />

+ M<br />

(3-12)<br />

Where Ms is <strong>the</strong> mass of dry solids present in <strong>the</strong> waste, MCi is <strong>the</strong> intial moisture content<br />

of <strong>the</strong> waste before liquid injection and ρ is <strong>the</strong> density of <strong>the</strong> water. MCi is assumed to be 0.23<br />

as observed by Jonnalagadda (2004).<br />

<strong>the</strong> waste (V2, T2)<br />
