In the city of Palangka Raya with a population of 266,000 people, waste is a problem, among others, due to the limited facilities and infrastructure to support waste transportation. The average amount of waste transported by the Palangka Raya City Garbage Transport Team only reached 48.94% of the total waste that must be transported every month which reached 27,628.2 m³. Thus, the rate of waste production is still faster than efforts to overcome it. The purpose of this research is to study the performance of waste management in Palangka Raya City from the generation of waste, support for financing, and regulation, as well as to study the priority aspects as supporting the performance of waste management so that waste management can improve and the aspects that are the main causes and can affect the management performance of waste, as well as how the planning and commitment of the Palangka Raya City government towards improving the performance of waste management. The research method is quantitative descriptive, analysis of waste management performance data and priority setting is carried out with a Likert Scale modification. The number of respondents as many as 30 people who are all waste management supervisors in Pahandut and Jekan Raya Subdistricts which are the research locations. The results show that the value response in the form of a percentage that is considered appropriate requires priority handling, namely waste facilities (81%) as the first priority, financial support (70%) as the second priority, waste generation (69%) the third priority, regulation (65%) , and waste infrastructure (53%). In general, the performance of solid waste management in the City of Palangka Raya needs to be improved, especially in the waste facilities because the amount of waste generated in the City of Palangka Raya has not been balanced with the performance of waste management.

The problem of mucipal waste management in the city of Bandung has been an unsolved problem to date. The rapid population growth plus many new arrivals to the city of Bandung have increased waste production from year to year. According to the Department of Environment and Sanitation, the city of Bandung produces around 1477 metric tons of solid waste per day, of which 63% is organic matter. Garbage collection in the city of Bandung is managed by the city government through the BUMD which handles it. About 44.3% of solid waste management in Bandung city is composted to produce fertilizer material, 54.7% is rejected and dumped in landfills. 23% of non-organic waste is mostly recycled and around 11.3% is taken to landfills, while 14% of residual waste such as B3 is dumped. This investigation also includes an analysis of the economic benefits that can be realized by implementing incineration and a discussion of the challenges faced in the city of Bandung to implement changes to the existing urban solid waste management system.

Waste management that is not managed properly will have negative impacts both for human health. In addition, the impact caused by improper waste management also results in a decrease in environmental quality. Therefore, waste management cannot be separated from the management of good waste management and community lifestyle management. Until now, waste management in the city of Bukittinggi is managed by the Department of Sanitation and Parks (DKP), it is indeed difficult to deal with waste problems. Constraints faced include public awareness to minimize waste production starting from the personal, family and environment. Very high population density, as well as limited land available, causing the emergence of the problem of waste can not be resolved properly, community ignorance of the problem of waste makes garbage continue to accumulate in various corners of the city without a touch of proper handling. The role of the community, especially students related to the problem of garbage in urban areas is very influential. This is because the community contributes to the amount of municipal waste generation each year. It is expected that waste segregation in the household environment has done well management it will help the current municipal waste problem which is increasingly complex and complex given the increasing population and culture. The activity was carried out with socialization to students of FEBI IAIN Bukittinggi in the hope that after getting socialization it could change the behavior of students into insane people who care about garbage.


The growth of Urbanization has increased vigorously in recent years, so is the increase in waste production. Management if waste is the critical issue to be considered at this high time. This idea of i-Bin is a way to achieve this good cause. Most of the times the garbage bins or dustbins placed at public places in cities are overflowing, creating unhygienic conditions for people. Also it affects cleanliness of that place spreading a bad odour. The present system has separate section of workers allotted for monitoring and cleaning the trashes at periodic intervals. But this is not properly maintaining the sanitation and management of wastes. The concept of connecting all the trash bins to a common network will be helpful in providing a control and overview of trash bins in the city. This i-bin aims to solve the problem of trash overflow and helping the workers in cleaning the necessary bins. In this paper we have implemented the idea of automation in waste management all over the city using intelligent bin(i-Bin). i-Bin is using the new technologies like Raspberry Pi, IR distance/ultrasonic sensor, actuators and weight sensors along with an application to improvisethe mechanisms for waste collection and waste processing.

Due to enhanced healthcare needs brought upon by the COVID-19 pandemic, the amount of biomedical waste generated has also increased manifold across the globe. With the world in global crisis due to the recent outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, it has put great pressure on the biomedical waste management system in India and around the world. To control the spread of the COVID-19 virus, proper disposal of the waste is essential to reduce any risk of secondary transmission. This paper investigates the situation of biomedical waste management in the city of Thane in Maharashtra due to the onset of COVID-19 and suggests some key recommendations to the policymakers to help handle biomedical waste from possible future pandemics. The study found that there was an 81% increase in the total biomedical waste (BMW) generation in 2020, when compared to 2019 and the yellow category waste from COVID-19 centres was the highest contributor to this waste. It was also found that though there was a slight increase in yellow category waste, the total biomedical waste from non- COVID healthcare facilities (HCFs) was comparable to that of the waste generated in HCFs during 2019, revealing that there was conscious reduction in the usage of single use PPEs at non- COVID HCFs. The city, despite owning a Central Biomedical Waste Treatment Facility (CBWTF), was dependent on another incinerator at the Hazardous Waste Management Treatment facility (HWTF) for treatment of the additional waste generated. Unforeseen situation like these, expose the vulnerability of our existing biomedical waste management system and reinforces the need for investing and improving them for strengthening preparedness in the future. The situation also demands periodic education on importance of source segregation and waste reduction through rational use, disinfection and disposal of PPEs.
