Abstract Waste-to-energy (WtE) power plants in waste management have been applied widespread because it is considered the best waste management solution compared to other waste management technologies. However, Jakarta has relied heavily on landfills regarding its waste management. Bantargebang landfill has been the only landfill owned by Jakarta and has been operating since 1989, so it has almost reached its capacity limit. Thus, to solve the problem, the Provincial Government of Jakarta has planned to build an Intermediate Treatment Facility (ITF) in a WtE power plant in Sunter. This article aims to find out the plans and the challenges of WtE in Sunter, Jakarta. This research was conducted with a literature study on waste to energy in several countries that have applied it to their waste management systems and literature related to the progress of waste to energy development in Indonesia especially ITF Sunter, and the challenges that must be done faced. Based on the literature study, building an ITF is one of the Jakarta Provincial Government’s responsibilities. However, the composition and characteristics of the waste tend to be lower than (WtE) standards, so the waste cannot be effectively processed. Therefore, the use of a pre-treatment facility should be considered.

India faces major environmental challenges associated with waste generation and inadequate waste collection, transport, treatment and disposal. Current systems in India cannot cope with the volumes of waste generated by an increasing urban population, and this impacts on the environment and public health. The challenges and barriers are significant, but so are the opportunities. This paper reports on an international seminar on ‘Sustainable solid waste management for cities: opportunities in South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries’ organized by the Council of Scientific and Industrial Research-National Environmental Engineering Research Institute and the Royal Society. A priority is to move from reliance on waste dumps that offer no environmental protection, to waste management systems that retain useful resources within the economy. Waste segregation at source and use of specialized waste processing facilities to separate recyclable materials has a key role. Disposal of residual waste after extraction of material resources needs engineered landfill sites and/or investment in waste-to-energy facilities. The potential for energy generation from landfill via methane extraction or thermal treatment is a major opportunity, but a key barrier is the shortage of qualified engineers and environmental professionals with the experience to deliver improved waste management systems in India.

The statistical entropy (SE) function has been applied to waste treatment systems to account for dilution or concentration effects on metals. We later extended it to account for carbon flows, especially in waste management systems involving thermal treatment. Now, a simple lifecycle “net energy” metric — encompassing the “lost energy” that would have been gained when high-calorific materials are landfilled rather than combusted with energy recovery — is introduced to account for additional influxes of carbon when using landfilling as the primary disposal method. When combining net energy calculations and long terms effects of landfilling, waste to energy (WTE) becomes a more attractive option for dealing with non-recycled municipal solid waste (MSW). A greenhouse gas-forcing factor is also introduced to account for the entropy generating effects of methane. When incorporating forcing and lost energy, WTE performs notably better than landfills with respect to entropy generation and carbon.

Population growth in DKI Jakarta Province continues to increase. The consequence of population increase is indeed in the volume of waste which also continues to increase and at the same time the need for energy is increasing. Since 2011 DKI Provincial Government has implemented waste to energy (WTE) in Bantargebang TPST, but it was not as the main processing unit. Since 2011, DKI Provincial Government has also compiled a plan (2012-2032 Waste Management System Master Plan) to make WTE as a central processing unit by making an Intermediate Treatment Facility (ITF) at four points in DKI Jakarta Province. It was only in 2018, one ITF in Sunter began to be built. To unravel the problem of the slow implementation of RISPS, researcher tried to map the existing network of actors and to explore the extent to which the configuration of the subsystem accepted new ideas and actors in the context of accelerating WTE development. The results of this study indicated that the policy change process runs gradually paradigmatically oriented to policy goals in an open subsystem.

In dealing with waste management problems in Bekasi City, the Bekasi City Government has implemented waste management innovations by involving the community's role through the Program for Improvement of Household Waste Segregation Behavior, Revitalization of "Smart Waste Management", and "Waste to Energy" Conversion in Bekasi City. The purpose of this article is to find out how to implement the Program to Improve Household Waste Segregation Behavior, “Smart Waste Management” Revitalization, and “Waste to Energy” Conversion in Bekasi City. The author uses a qualitative descriptive method with data collection techniques using literature study, observation, interviews and documentation at the Bekasi City Environmental Service and the Patriot Main Waste Bank. Data Analysis Techniques Using interactive model analysis using the theory of Policy Implementation” according to Charles O. Jones which “consists of three activities, namely “Organization, Interpretation, and Application. The results of the study indicate that the implementation of the Policy for the Improvement of Household Waste Segregation Behavior, Revitalization of "Smart Waste Management", and "Waste to Energy" Conversion in Bekasi City is not optimal in organizational activities and applications. This can be seen from the limited resources owned by the Bekasi City Government and community participation which is still not optimal in presenting Waste Banks in every RW.

The increasing volume and complexity of waste associated with the modern economy as due to the ranging population, is posing a serious risk to ecosystems and human health. Every year, an estimated 11.2 billion tonnes of solid waste is collected worldwide and decay of the organic proportion of solid waste is contributing about 5 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions (UNEP). Poor waste management - ranging from non-existing collection systems to ineffective disposal causes air pollution, water and soil contamination. Open and unsanitary landfills contribute to contamination of drinking water and can cause infection and transmit diseases. The dispersal of debris pollutes ecosystems and dangerous substances from waste or garbage puts a strain on the health of urban dwellers and the environment. India, being second most populated country of the world that too with the lesser land area comparatively, faces major environmental challenges associated with waste generation and inadequate waste collection, transport, treatment and disposal. Population explosion, coupled with improved life style of people, results in increased generation of solid wastes in urban as well as rural areas of the country. The challenges and barriers are significant, but so are the opportunities. A priority is to move from reliance on waste dumps that offer no environmental protection, to waste management systems that retain useful resources within the economy [2]. Waste segregation at source and use of specialized waste processing facilities to separate recyclable materials has a key role. Disposal of residual waste after extraction of material resources needs engineered landfill sites and/or investment in waste-to-energy facilities. This study focusses on the minimization of the waste and gives the brief about the various initiations for proper waste management system. Hence moving towards the alternatives is the way to deal with these basic problems. This paper outlines various advances in the area of waste management. It focuses on current practices related to waste management initiatives taken by India. The purpose of this article put a light on various initiatives in the country and locates the scope for improvement in the management of waste which will also clean up the unemployment.
