Observation Process

Waste has been a serious problem in all areas of Indonesia, including in urban areas of Yogyakarta (KPY). As one of the existing problems, the temporary waste dump site (TPS) requires an integrated waste management system. The objective of this research is to evaluate the condition and effectiveness of TPS in urban areas of Yogyakarta. This research uses the qualitative method, by solving the problem through the description of the object state at the time the data is taken based on the apparent facts. The main data has been obtained through the interview and field observation process, while secondary data has been obtained from documents from several institutions and other scientific references. Results of the study reveal that there are 212 units of temporary waste dump sites (TPS) in urban areas of Yogyakarta, consist of; 143 of permanent TPS, 51 containers, and 18 depots. The majority of them are located in Municipality of Yogyakarta and the fewest number are located in Bantul Region. In general, the temporary waste dumpsites in urban areas of Yogyakarta are in good condition. There’s only few of them in relatively poor condition, due to the portion of waste that is not well accommodated in the TPS. Another problem is the inappropriate design of TPS, especially for containers. Consequently, the waste cannot be adequately transferred from waste vehicle to TPS. In addition, we found a new paradigm of integrated temporary waste dumpsite (TPST) operated by Non-Government Organizations, but they need adequate facilities and evaluation of the design. Including, the sustainable support from multi stakeholders, and also the plan arrangement of development to improve organizational capacity, business, and partnership in the management of the integrated temporary waste dumpsite for optimal public service.

The production and management of waste has become an important point of interest for hoteliers and their managers globally due to its environmental impacts. In the bid to become more sustainable or environmentally responsible, hotels and guest houses are going green. Thus, this study examines waste management system adopted lodging facilities in Minna, Niger State. Data collection was performed using questionnaire administered to managers of 26 sampled lodging facilities. Result revealed that three units (rooms, kitchen and store/wharehouse) out of the nine units examined produce the highest volume of wastes As plastic, paper, organic, and water wastes are topmost in the categories of wastes produce, while large percentage of the wastes are either burnt, landfill, or dump in the water ways or municipal dump site without seperation. The findings will help foster a new paradigm shift to mitigate the environmental impact of the waste produced by accomoodation outfits.

The City

Generation of solid waste (SW) is a major problem in urban areas, thus its management is one of the important obligatory functions to not only urban local authority but also for the inhabitants. The citizens expressed their concerns about the waste management system in KCC and associated problems that they are encountering. Waste generation in Khulna City Corporation is around 455 tons of municipal solid waste/day and generation rate is now 0.75 Kg/capita/day on an average. Existing public utility services and facilities are not adequate to meet the demand of disposing these massive amounts of wastes and that’s why several problems are arising. There are some deterrents in the KCC’s solid waste Management system, arising from both the city corporation authority and the citizen of different levels. With a view to address the problem from through community participation, this paper intends to evaluate the potential of community based solid waste management approach in context of Khulna city.

Solid Waste Management System

The growth of global population and economy continually increases the waste volumes and consequently creates challenges to handle and dispose solid wastes. It becomes more challenging in mixed rural-urban areas (i.e., areas of mixed land use for rural and urban purposes) where both agricultural waste (e.g., manure) and municipal solid waste are generated. The efficiency and confidence of decisions in current management practices significantly rely on the accurate information and subjective judgments, which are usually compromised by uncertainties. This study proposed a resource-oriented solid waste management system for mixed rural-urban areas. The system is featured by a novel Monte Carlo simulation-based fuzzy programming approach. The developed system was tested by a real-world case with consideration of various resource-oriented treatment technologies and the associated uncertainties. The modeling results indicated that the community-based bio-coal and household-based CH4facilities were necessary and would become predominant in the waste management system. The 95% confidence intervals of waste loadings to the CH4and bio-coal facilities were 387, 450 and 178, 215 tonne/day (mixed flow), respectively. In general, the developed system has high capability in supporting solid waste management for mixed rural-urban areas in a cost-efficient and sustainable manner under uncertainty.

Purpose – This purpose of this paper is concerned with the issue of designing and operating a sustainable waste management system, in rapidly growing urban areas. Some existing models for waste management and the extent to which they could be applied in a specific environment – Cairo for example – are discussed. An integrated framework which can serve as a basis for the development of a sustainable waste management system is proposed. Sustainability of the system, opportunities and challenges, material re-use and recycling, composting, incineration and energy production and land-filling are examined. Relevant waste management and cost sub-models inherent to the system are discussed. In addition, some other environmental and social aspects are also debated. The main focus of this paper is to provide some insights into the design of a more effective and integrated sustainable waste management system applicable for developing economies. Design/methodology/approach – An in-depth analysis is carried out for the existing models and approaches for waste management. This has led to the development of a framework which can be implemented. Findings – A comprehensive conceptual framework for a waste management system is developed. The major inputs and expected outputs are clearly identified. Originality/value – A comprehensive and complete system for waste management is proposed. This system can be operationalized and implemented with a view of sustainability.

Municipal solid waste management in India is becoming important in view of the fact thatincreasing amount of solid waste generated in most cities is now being recognized as a major publichealth problem. Poor management of solid waste leads to problems, which transcend traditionalenvironmental boundaries and contribute to air, waters and soil pollution,The percentage of India's population living in cities and urban areas has doubled to 28.8% by 200 Ifrom 14% at the time of Independence, showing the rapid pace of urbanization. The progressivelyimproved standards of living and the wasteful consumer attitudes have resulted in increase ofquantities of municipal wastes to be handled.The present system of solid waste management in India, like any other developing country, isfraught with many inadequacies. Illegal dumping is a major problem that raises significant concernswith regard to safety, property values, and quality of life in our communities. Poor collection ordisposal practices are the problem. Since most cities in India still lack properly engineered landfillsfor safe disposal, waste here is mostly disposed in open dumps, which causes major environmentalhavoc.Apart from other environmental hazards from open dumping of municipal solid waste, one of themajor problems that rise are the uncontrolled emissions of VOCs or Volatile organic Compounds.VOCs are well known to be hazardous to human health and are potent carcinogens,The present paper deals with qualitative and quantitative identification of VOCs from a twomunicipal waste dump site in Mumbai. Air at dump sites was sampled and analyzed on GC/MS inaccordance with USEPA TO-17 compendium method for analysis of toxic compounds. As many as20 VOCs were qualitatively identified and some VOC's were quantified, Concentration of Benzenewas observed in the order of 0.6ppm, Some of the VOCs identified were Hazardous Air Pollutantsaccording to USEPA clean air act amendment of 1990,

Abstract Waste management is collecting, transporting, processing, and recycling waste materials from the Household, 3R Waste Management Site/Integrated Waste Management Site, and the landfill. Optimal waste management can reduce the impact of environmental pollution caused by waste. The current community paradigm in waste management is still in the collect-transport-dispose. This paper describes how Pesanggrahan District manages its waste by applying a new paradigm, namely reduce-sorted-processing. This paper aims to evaluate the waste management system at the Jakarta Recycle Center (JRC), Pesanggrahan, South Jakarta, and identify peer-reviewed documents in the waste management system. This study approaches a semi-systematic review by reviewing relevant documents. The waste transportation scheme carried out in the JRC program is divided into four types on seven different days. The composition of the most significant waste in JRC is organic waste. Two methods carry out the processing of organic waste, namely composting and BSF. With the support of sufficient waste transportation and processing facilities from the government, the JRC can become a pilot program that can be applied in other areas in managing their waste.
