Abstract
Generator’s direct weighing method was applied for investigation of household waste generation. At least 28 days, each household member measured and recorded the weight of garbage discharged with plastic garbage bag, food waste, and recyclable waste. Collected garbage record books were used as input data in Microsoft Excel, and statistical analysis were done with Minitab 16 software. By generator’s direct weighing method for household waste generation, garbage discharged by plastic bag, food waste, and recyclable waste were 130.5, 98.2, and 187.9 g/capita/day, respectively. Difference in averages of per capita garbage discharge between Seoul, Gyeonggi, Incheon, and Chungbuk were no statistically significant. And as the number of house member decrease, per capita garbage discharge increase numerically, but there was no statistically significant.
