Forecasting and Analysis of Domestic Solid Waste Generation in Districts of Istanbul with Support Vector Regression

The study was conducted to survey the current situation of domestic solid waste generation and management in Hau My Bac A commune, Cai Be district, Tien Giang province in Hau My Bac A village, Cai Be district, Tien Giang province. Data on the status of generation and management were collected through direct interviews with 60 households and placed garbage bags in the households for a period of seven consecutive days a week. The research results showed that the average amount of domestic solid waste generated by each household was about 1-1.5 kg of waste/day, on average, each person generated 0.36 kg/person/day. The composition of domestic solid waste of households was relatively different, mainly organic waste, accounted for 47.88% higher than the other components. Plastic, plastic bags accounted for 24.65%, metals 2.19%, paper and carton 9.89%, foam box accounted for 4.15%. The wood, fabric, rubber, and glass were negligible. Hazardous wastes were not found in the study period. Currently, the collection was not met the demand of efficient solid waste collection due to the lack of facilities and the workforce. The rate of solid waste collection was only about 40-55%. Local domestic solid waste managers have not been paid adequate attention to the overall management of solid waste. Local residents in the study area were not fully aware of the harms of domestic solid waste, did not actively participate in solid waste management activities leading to the difficulty in the management. The active participation of the community and strict enforcement of the environmental protection law can make an important contribution to the full management of solid waste in the study area.

Domestic Solid Waste

The importance of Baghdad city as the capital of Iraq and the center of the attention of delegations because of its long history is essential to preserve its environment. This is achieved through the integrated management of municipal solid waste since this is only possible by knowing the quantities produced by the population on a daily basis. This study focused to predicate the amount of municipal solid waste generated in Karkh and Rusafa separately, in addition to the quantity produced in Baghdad, using IBM SPSS 23 software. Results that showed the average generation rates of domestic solid waste in Rusafa side was higher than that of Al-Karkh side because Rusafa side has higher population density than Al-Karkh side. The artificial neural networks show a high coefficient of determination between the predicted and observed domestic solid waste, with R2 value reaching to 0.91, 0.828 and 0.827 for Al-Karkh, 0.9986,0. 9903 and 0.9903 for Rusafa side, and 0.9989, 0.9878 and 0.9847 in Baghdad city, and also, these models were used to estimate the generation of municipal solid waste for short period with highly efficient which assistance in planning to design landfills sites.

Domestic Solid Waste

ABSTRAKRumah Sakit Advent Bandung sebagai salah satu rumah sakit swasta di Kota Bandung dalam kegiatannya menghasilkan sejumlahsampah medis dan sampah domestik. Sampah domestik rumah sakit meningkat dengan bertambahnya jumlah rumah sakit. Inisiatif zero waste berpotensi mengurangi limbah yang akan dibuang keTPA. Limbah padat yang dihasilkan terdiri dari berbagai komposisi yang dapat digunakan untuk mencari potensi reduksi, penggunaan kembali atau daur ulang. Penghitungan timbulan limbah padat domestik dilakukan dengan pendekatan SNI 19-3964-1994, sampel diambil dari dapur dan non dapur. Komposisi sampah dipilah menurut jenis dan potensi zero waste dilihat dari komposisinya. Sampah yang dihasilkan rumah sakit adalah 0,39 kg / tempat tidur / hari untuk dapur, 1,08 kg/bed/hari untuk non dapur dan untuk semua sumber sampah sebanyak 1,47 kg /bed/ hari, lebih rendah dari standar WHO 3,2 kg/bed/hari. Komposisi sampah adalah plastik(17,66%) kertas (8,25%), sampah organik (43,99%), logam (0,41%), karton (9,37%), residu (17,61%) dan lain-lain. (2,71%). Rumah Sakit Advent Bandung telah memulai beberapa upaya untuk minimasi pemborosan. Penerapan zero waste dengan pemisahan sampah selanjutnya dapat diolah sesuai dengan karakteristik masing-masing jenis sampah. Sampah plastik, kertas dan karton dapat dipisahkan untuk didaur ulang. Sampah organik berupa sisa-sisa makanan seperti beras dapat dipisahkan untuk pakan ternak, dicerna dan dibuat kompos.Kata kunci: komposisi, rumah sakit, sampah domestik,minimasi, zero-waste ABSTRACTBandung Adventist Hospital as one of the private hospitals in Bandung City in its activities produces subtantial amount of medical and domestic solid waste. The hospital's domestic solid waste increases with the increase in the number of hospitals. Zero waste initiative can potentially reduce waste to be disposed of in the TPA. The resulting solid waste consists of various compositions that can be used to seek potential for reduction, reuse or recycling. Domestic solid waste generation is calculated using the SNI 19-3964- 1994 approach, samples are taken from kitchens and non-kitchens. The composition of waste is sorted by type and the potential for zero waste seen from the composition. The waste generated by hospital is 0.39 kg/bed/day for kitchen, 1.08 kg/bed/day for non-kitchen and for all source of waste total 1.47 kg/bed/day, lower than the WHO standard 3.2 kg/bed /day. The composition of the waste were plastic (17.66%), papers (8.25%), organic waste (43.99%), metal (0,41%), cardboard (9,37%), residue (17,61%) and others (2,71%). Bandung Adventist Hospital has started several efforts to minimize waste. Zero waste application with separated waste can then be processed according to the characteristics of each type of waste. Plastic, paper and cardboard waste can be separated for recycling. Organic waste in the form of food scraps such as rice can be separated for animal feed, digested and composted.Keywords: composition, hospital, domestic waste, minimize, zero-waste,
