We estimate the “as-discarded” (bulk) density by converting the 1,000 kg waste into component masses (using the given percent-by-mass), assigning reasonable bulk densities for each discarded component, calculating the volume each occupies, summing volumes, and dividing total mass by total volume. Assumed bulk densities (typical loose/as-discarded values): food waste = 600 kg·m⁻³, paper (mixed) = 150 kg·m⁻³, cardboard = 120 kg·m⁻³, plastics (mixed) _______ ______ ____ ___ ____ ______.
