Legislative Measures

At European level, there are concrete measures regarding waste management in the circular economy, and these refer to: mandatory recycling rates for different categories of waste: plastics, glass, metals, paper and cardboard as well as biodegradable waste; the obligation to redesign the products in order to increase the proportion of raw materials resulting from recycling and to increase the degree of recycling of products, in order to consider them as secondary raw materials; promoting and stimulating the reuse of products; increasing the recycling rate of municipal waste by 2030 to a minimum of 65%; increasing the recycling rate of packaging waste by 2030 to a minimum of 75%; reduction of food wastage and implicitly of the resulted food waste by 50% by 2030. The large amount of packaging waste determined the taking of legislative measures that defined the obligations of pack- aging producers/distributors, recycling objectives and the waste management hierarchy. New targets for the recycling of packaging waste predict a growth to 65% in 2025 and 70% in 2030 [1]. Textile packaging waste is an important link in the integrated management of waste whose recovery contributes to the conservation and improvement of natural capital.

Waste is defined by OUG no. 195/2005 as a substance or an object the owner discards, intends or is required to discard. [1] Wastes are related to the consumer's lifestyle and mentality. The main purpose of the article is to present creative, practical and aesthetic ideas on the reuse of household waste generated in households. There are presented statistical data taken from the Annual Environmental Reports, by ANM, the quantities of household waste generated in the last years and the degree of waste collection in Romania. In Romania most of the waste is eliminated through storage, so the most favorable actions for a proper waste management are prevention and reuse. The paper deals with the problem of dry solid waste: plastics, glass and metals waste.

Abstract Waste management in Pontianak City is still managed improperly so there are still lots of waste dump in landfill area. The purpose of this study are to analyze the amount and the potential of using plastic waste to become ecobrick in West Pontianak Subdistrict. Sampling is accordance with SNI 19-3964-1994 in each village office in the West Pontianak Subdistrict. The total of plastics waste in the West Pontianak Subdistrict is 850.108,20922 kg/year or 850.108 tons/year which consists of plastics waste that can be processed into ecobrick that is 652.306,13825 kg/year or 652,306 tons/year and the generation of plastics waste that cannot be processed into ecobrick is 197.802,07097 kg/year 197,802 tons/year. The potential value of ecobrick in reducing plastics waste in West Pontianak Subdistrict is 77% plastics waste can be processed into ecobrick and by 33% it cannot be processed into ecobrick. Based on this research, the potential of ecobrick produced in 1 year which is 2.481.940 pieces for a 600 ml volume bottle or 1.119.177 units for a 1500 ml volume bottle. Keywords: ecobrick, household waste, plastics waste, Pontianak, IndonesiaAbstrak Pengelolaan sampah di Kota Pontianak masih belum dikelola dengan baik sehingga masih banyak sampah yang berakhir di TPA khususnya sampah plastik. Tujuan dalam penelitian ini adalah menganalisis jumlah timbulan sampah plastik dan menganalisis potensi ecobrick dalam mengurangi sampah plastik rumah tangga di Kecamatan Pontianak Barat. Sampling dilakukan sesuai SNI 19-3694-1994 pada tiap kelurahan di Kecamatan Pontianak Barat. Berdasarkan hasil sampling, total timbulan sampah plastik rumah tangga di Kecamatan Pontianak Barat tahun 2019 yaitu sebesar 850.108,20922 kg/tahun atau 850.108 ton/tahun yang terdiri dari timbulan sampah plastik yang dapat diolah menjadi eobrick yaitu sebesar 652.306,13825 kg/tahun atau 652,306 ton/tahun dan timbulan sampah plastik yang tidak dapat diolah menjadi ecobrick yaitu sebesar 197.802,07097 kg/tahun 197,802 ton/tahun. Nilai potensi ecobrick dalam mengurangi sampah plastik rumah tangga di Kecamatan Pontianak Barat yaitu sebesar 77% sampah plastik dapat diolah menjadi ecobrick dan sebesar 33% tidak dapat diolah menjadi ecobrick. Potensi ecobrick yang dapat dihasilkan dalam 1 tahun yaitu sebanyak 2.481.940 buah untuk botol volume 600 ml atau sebanyak 1.119.177 buah untuk ukuran botol volume 1500 ml. Kata Kunci : ecobrick, sampah rumah tangga, sampah plastik, Pontianak, Indonesia.
