well kitchen sinks are set at 2 fixture units and on a 2" drain you can have 4 because horizontal 2" line can have 8 fixtures units and 2" vertical can have 16 fixture units.
Solids would block the waste pipe of the sink.
Soil pipes and waste pipes differ in their purpose and the type of waste they handle. A soil pipe is designed to carry human waste and toilet paper from toilets to the sewer system or septic tank. A waste pipe, on the other hand, is designed to carry other types of waste, such as water from sinks, showers, and washing machines. Waste pipes can also carry food waste and other debris from garbage disposals. Additionally, waste pipes are typically smaller in diameter than soil pipes.
12" center of waste to the floor
By placing the waste 2x the diameter above the opening
Human waste is heavier than water, so it sinks to the bottom. Then, the water is pumped through a pipe leaving the heavier substances behind, and the waste is disposed of.Hope this helps. :)
Depends on the design, but I suspect you set the seat height to the correct position and work from that, not use the waste as a height guide.
Soil pipes and waste pipes serve distinct roles in a building's plumbing system. Soil pipes are designed to carry human waste from toilets, necessitating a larger diameter and steeper gradient due to their solid content. These pipes are crucial for safe waste disposal and are directly linked to sewage systems. In contrast, waste pipes handle liquid waste from sinks, showers, and appliances. Smaller in diameter and with a gentler gradient, they efficiently transport non-toilet wastewater. Proper functioning of both types of pipes is essential for maintaining a hygienic environment.

Install a ty fitting on the stack in the basement then run it to the sink. Put it low enough to account for a fall in the pipe, to allow proper drainage. Be sure to install a waste and vent pipe to code for both fixtures.
dvw pipe = drain, waste and vent pipe.
install a tank and a sewage ejector pump There are also "macerating toilets" which grind the waste and eject it vertically through a 3/4" or 1" waste pipe until the waste is higher than the existing waste drain pipe where it can then flow downward using gravity. These macerating toilets can cost upwards of $1000, but they save the effort and cost of having to cut the concrete floor, dig a hole, bury the tank and ejector pump and then fix the concrete floor. Many of these toilets have pipe inlets where an additional sink and/or shower drain can be added to the macerating tank, further easing the installation of a full or 1/2 bath.
Yes. To install a garbage disposal into a sink you really only need a few things. First, make sure that you have an electrical outlet to plug the garbage disposal into. If you have this along with all of the plumbing materials to hook up your drain pipe you can install it very easily.
The bend in the pipe can be ignored as long as the drain is even at the floor. The pipe can be coming out of the floor at an angle and it will still work. Cut the pip flush with the floor and use a metal floor flange screwed down to the floor. The flange and the pipe do not need to be joined together, the wax ring will make the connection.
