Application of smart waste management in the Department of Civil Engineering, Bali State Polytechnic

Abstract

The existence of the green campus program is expected to create awareness and concern for the campus community to participate and be responsible for reducing global warming. This research is expected to be a guideline in implementing smart waste management in the Civil Engineering Department of the Bali State Polytechnic in particular to improve quality in the environmental sector. The method of analysis in this research includes: Identification, planning of and quantity of waste generation. The analysis conducted in this study used an analysis referring to several standards regarding green campus, namely UI Greenmetric, Green Guide for University and Greening University Toolkits. Waste management in the Department of Civil Engineering has not carried out processing efforts such as recycling, composting or other integrated efforts. The waste generated from teaching and learning activities, practicum and canteen is carried out by making a reservoir and it is carried out by disposing of waste into the trash bins that have been provided, practicum waste is collected in carts, waste management is carried out in the area of the department such as in the room carried out by cleaning services, which is then the final handling in the campus area, namely garbage is disposed of to the Temporary Landfills (TPS) campus then brought to the Landfills (TPA) by the South Kuta District Sanitation Office. The main objective of the campus solid waste management plan is to maximize resource recovery, with the aim of minimizing the disposal of waste to the TPS. The main strategy is to implement a waste hierarchy by avoiding purchasing products that will eventually become waste, repair and reuse, then recycle, and finally if there is no other choice, disposal to the TPS.
