Livestock waste management at household level is one of the biggest challenges for environmental managers in Vietnam for several years. Understanding internal factors, which influent waste management behavior of household, is extremely important to obtain successful environmental protection strategy. The study was conducted in a peri-commune of Ha Noi, Le Chi Commune in order provide useful information for better understanding about farmers intention in innovating their current waste treatment system. Through applying behavioral approach, study had interviewed 85 households to obtain necessary information for correlation models. The study found no evidence which present the relationship between the intention to upgrade the system and farmers’ current farming situation as well as farmers’ satisfaction on environmental performance of the present applied treatment systems. However, the intension highly positive correlated to the purpose to increase farming scale (r=.490, p<.001), the cow barn expansion (r=.675, p<.001) and fairly correlated to the satisfaction of household about the time saving criteria of current waste processed methods (r=-.304, p<0.001). These results of this study could provide considerable information for waste management strategies in this commune.

ABSTRACT PERFORMANCE AND HOTELS WASTE MANAGEMENT STRATEGIES IN TOURISM REGION OF UBUD BALI The aim of this research was to know performance and formulate waste management strategies by star hotels in Ubud Tourism Region. Based on the result of the research, there were 2 hotels (14,28%) with very good classification, 6 hotel (42,86%) with good classification, 3 hotel (21,43%) with moderate classification and 3 hotels (21.43%) with poor classification. The strategy formulated to improve the effectiveness of hotels waste management especially for those for moderate and poor was by conducting analysis of internal factors (IFAS) and external factors (EFAS) which then analyzed with SWOT matrix. Based on the result of SWOT analysis using balance score card, it was found that the star hotel waste management condition which was in moderate category and poor was in quadrant III. This condition indicated that the strategy formulated in the combination of weakneas and opportunities. The formulation of strategy based on SWOT Analysis matrix were as follows: (1) Developing SOP of waste management by referring to the legislation in the environmental; (2) Improving and adding components of waste treatment facilities (WWTP, chimneys, and hazardous waste storage to meet technical standards; (3) Socializing waste management policy to all hotel employees; (4) Apply to the government waste management training for staff / human resources engineering division; and (5) Reporting the performance of the waste management system to the Gianyar Regency Environmental Office every 3 months.

Waste Treatment System

This article discusses about latest developments in handling medical wastes. The article highlight features of Ecolotec, which is a large autoclave equipped with a system of blades to churn and chop the waste. The waste treatment system is in its final stages of testing and could be on the market soon. Currently, Ecolotec is studying blades of SAE 4140 chromium-molybdenum steel. The blades are sharpened daily with a belt sander, and the company may package one with the system when it reaches the market. Computer control is provided by an Allen-Bradley programmable logic controller (PLC) with a waterproof keyboard. The PLC has a wireless Internet card so, if a customer chooses, Ecolotec will be able to diagnose equipment from its headquarters. Ecolotec's executives say that, at an operating cost of 11 cents a pound, their machine costs considerably less than a waste disposal service.
