Waste autoclave tonnes of unsorted waste per hour. This autoclave will be one of three autoclaves to go into a new facility at South Kirkby part of a PFI Project for the City of Wakefield Metropolitan District Council which will ensure that the Council achieves its strategic waste targets for diversion and recycling.

Together these facilities will treat 230,000 metric tons (253,531.6 U.S. tons) of municipal solid waste
Economic production quantity can notice from the equations above that the total ordering cost decreases as the production quantity increases. Inversely, the total holding cost increases as the production quantity increases. Therefore, in order to get the optimal production quantity we need to set holding cost per year equal to ordering cost per year and solve for quantity (Q), which is the EPQ formula mentioned below. Ordering this quantity will result in the lowest total inventory cost per year. Economic production quantity The economic production quantity model (also known as the EPQ model) determines the quantity a company or retailer should order to
