Garbage is a part of people's lives. Especially plastic waste that continues to accumulate and also endangers environmental life, especially waste generated by an industry. Especially PVC plastic waste in the Footwear Industry. The amount of plastic waste is waste and the decomposition of plastic waste takes a very long time. To overcome these problems, it is necessary to carry out activities that make plastic waste can be reused properly. Using the experimental method can provide some new ideas and opportunities, in utilizing PVC plastic waste in the footwear industry. This can give rise to several new things and ideas such as designing a women's footwear with plastic waste of the type Mica Plastik (PVC) which is relatively rarely applied to functional products. The benefits of research activities on people's lives are creating new job opportunities and new businesses.

Appropriate Technology Application for MSME Organic Waste Processing as Worm Feed Abstract. Waste is a problem that has not been resolved, therefore to reduce the adverse effects caused by waste, it is necessary to innovate waste management in order to have economic value. With this innovation in managing waste, the community can reduce the level of waste accumulation and reduce air pollution, especially for processing organic waste. CV. Rumah Alama Jaya (RAJ) Organics is a partner in this program because it produces worm feed using raw materials for organic waste. However, there are obstacles in the field of production that is a tool for making feed ingredients in worms that are still done in the traditional way and require a long time. The solution offered is to make an organic waste blender machine that can chop organic waste such as leaves and twigs to be used as worm feed. The methods used in making this waste treatment machine are location survey, group discussion, literature study, tool making, tool experimentation, and results evaluation. The results of the organic waste blender produce small particles of waste so it is faster to be processed to the next stage. With the help of this organic waste processing machine, the waste that has been chopped, fermented, and treated with this machine is capable of wasting the waste in 2 days. So, the production process becomes efficient because the process of eating worms is not too long and the process of accumulating waste is minimal.Keywords: Blender machine, organic waste processing, worm feed.Abstrak.

          Community service aims to provide training to the entire academic community of IT Fadillah High School, Pekanbaru, about the use of plastic waste into useful and feasible items. This aims to minimize the risk of plastic waste because plastic has properties that are non-biodegradable and take a long time to be decomposed naturally on the ground. The items to be made are handicrafts in the form of plastic trash cans (ToSAPlas). The implementation of the activity uses lecture, demonstration and discussion methods. The lecture was filled with training materials on making ToSAPlas covering preparation of raw materials for supporting tools and materials, plastic cleaning, plastic cutting, weaving, finishing. The demonstration method was carried out by the service team by dividing the participants into 6 groups. Each group was accompanied by one member of the service team and practiced directly how the process of making ToSAPlas. The target of this service program is to increase lecturers' awareness of the environment and society, while for the partners this activity is a forum for discussion in developing creative ideas in the field of recycling plastic waste and making business products that can be offered in the market.  Keywords: Waste, Plastics, ToSAPlas

The presence of waste in the environment is the root of many contradictions. Garbage can cause a variety of diseases, moving comfort, mosquito nests, and apart damaged view around. The presence of garbage makes the environment not beautiful. Nevertheless, many people have contributed to make waste increasingly pollute the environment. Scavengers are one of the professions that help plastic waste with low economic potential. While behind the negative side of waste, this can still be optimized by management so as to provide good economic value. Processing waste also encourages the level of monitoring of waste in the environment which makes it more beautiful. The dedication activities that have been carried out raise several issues at once. First is the empowerment of community groups who are scavengers without active groups. Second is increasing public awareness to dispose of garbage in landfills and classifying waste disposal so that it can be better and easier to manage others. Third is pollution caused by unmanaged waste, especially non-organic waste such as plastic. Community service activities help increase the economic and financial activities of partners and groups by helping to start a business as an expertise development that is usually done as a scavenger. Science and technology transfers consisting of management, business management, production management, finance, and groups will be given to partners. In addition, this service is a partner of change that helps change the community so that they are aware of waste disposal. This change will also benefit partners who will more easily obtain raw materials for their production.

Waste management is still defined as limited to collection, transportation and garbage disposal. The follow-up of the meaning is the provision of facilities such as garbage bins, garbage trucks and waste collection land. Waste management has not included waste separation. Segregation of waste can minimize the amount of waste that must be discharged to the final place. Segregation of waste can supply recyclable raw materials and handicrafts made from garbage. The manufacture of handicraft products from garbage is still local and requires socialization and training. It is needed to increase the number of craftsmen and garbage absorption on the crafters. Through careful socialization and training, citizens' awareness of waste management becomes advanced by making handicrafts of economic value from waste materials.

AbstractThe increase in the world population leads to rising demand and consumption of plastic raw materials; only a small percentage of plastics is recovered and recycled, increasing the quantity of waste released into the environment and losing its economic value. The plastics represent a great opportunity in the circular perspective of their reuse and recycling. Research is moving, on the one hand, to implement sustainable systems for plastic waste management and on the other to find new non-fossil-based plastics such as polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs). In this review, we focus our attention on Tenebrio molitor (TM) as a valuable solution for plastic biodegradation and biological recovery of new biopolymers (e.g. PHA) from plastic-producing microorganisms, exploiting its highly diversified gut microbiota. TM’s use for plastic pollution management is controversial. However, TM microbiota is recognised as a source of plastic-degrading microorganisms. TM-based plastic degradation is improved by co-feeding with food loss and waste as a dietary energy source, thus valorising these low-value substrates in a circular economy perspective. TM as a bioreactor is a valid alternative to traditional PHA recovery systems with the advantage of obtaining, in addition to highly pure PHA, protein biomass and rearing waste from which to produce fertilisers, chitin/chitosan, biochar and biodiesel. Finally, we describe the critical aspects of these TM-based approaches, mainly related to TM mass production, eventual food safety problems, possible release of microplastics and lack of dedicated legislation.

With the basis that research is one of the most important internal sources for innovation, a new approach to create competence-cell-based production networks focused on research activities is presented. Thus, a research process, specific for competence-cell-based networks, is also described. In this process, which is subdivided in different phases, the competence-cells, as the smallest performance units, are temporarily linked in a production network. They cooperate to carry out industry-oriented applied research to generate new ideas or technologies to be used in innovative products. For this process, an approach for the non-hierarchical selection of the necessary competence cells is also introduced. This selection is accomplished by means of the innovation potential, which is based on parameters that evaluate nearly objectively the innovative capabilities of the competence cells.

Abstract On the basis of the world’s continuing consumption of raw materials, there was an urgent need to seek sustainable resources. Lignin, the second naturally abundant biomass, accounts for 15–35% of the cell walls of terrestrial plants and is considered waste for low-cost applications such as thermal and electricity generation. The impressive characteristics of lignin, such as its high abundance, low density, biodegradability, antioxidation, antibacterial capability, and its CO2 neutrality and enhancement, render it an ideal candidate for developing new polymer/composite materials. In past decades, considerable works have been conducted to effectively utilize waste lignin as a component in polymer matrices for the production of high-performance lignin-based polymers. This chapter is intended to provide an overview of the recent advances and challenges involving lignin-based polymers utilizing lignin macromonomer and its derived monolignols. These lignin-based polymers include phenol resins, polyurethane resins, polyester resins, epoxy resins, etc. The structural characteristics and functions of lignin-based polymers are discussed in each section. In addition, we also try to divide various lignin reinforced polymer composites into different polymer matrices, which can be separated into thermoplastics, rubber, and thermosets composites. This chapter is expected to increase the interest of researchers worldwide in lignin-based polymers and develop new ideas in this field.
