Abstract

The change of waste management paradigm becomes an important thing to do, as a step adaptation to the increasing rate of waste generation every year in Indonesia. 100% management target has been divided into two parts, namely the reduction (30%) and waste handling (70%). Reductions focus on source limitation and 3R program optimization, whereas handling involves collecting and final processing activities. However, the current level of waste reduction is still very low (12%), the government made various efforts to increase it, one of its with the waste bank program. DIY province as a pioneer in the concept of waste bank continues to develop to increase the participation of the community, from 166 locations in 2013, increased to 792 locations in 2017 and 495 of its as the waste bank (62.5%). Average waste bank with 43 customers, able to manage the waste up to 2,078,064 kg/month, with the data can be estimated the amount of waste that can be managed in the city of Yogyakarta, Sleman and Bantul Regency. The city of Yogyakarta has 433 units of the waste bank, capable of managing waste up to 899,801.8 kg/month, Sleman Regency has 34 units of the waste bank (78.966,4 kg/month) and Bantul has 24 units of the waste bank (49.873,5 kg/month). The integration of formal and informal sectors through waste banks can increase the percentage of waste management services. The level of service in Yogyakarta City increased from 85% to 95.5%, Sleman District from 30.71 to 31%, and Bantul Regency from 7.49 to 7.7%

Highlights

  • The enactment of Law 18/2008 on Waste Management, a turning point in Indonesia's waste management system, returns waste into a resource that must be managed to minimize negative impacts on the environment

  • This research was conducted in several phases, starting with secondary data searching the number and location of the waste bank as representative of the informal sector in DIY Province, but limited only to Yogyakarta City, Sleman and Bantul Regency

  • Before discussing further waste bank, the following is the development of community participation through various locations of community-based waste management in the study area

Summary

Introduction

The enactment of Law 18/2008 on Waste Management, a turning point in Indonesia's waste management system, returns waste into a resource that must be managed to minimize negative impacts on the environment. Reduction through various activities of source limitation and the 3R program optimization, while handling is the activity of service of collecting, transporting to final processing done by the related institution, generally service area is in the urban area. Both must be consistent in order to achieve 100% service target by 2025, reaching 30% (± 21 million tons/year) through reduction activities and 70% (± 50 million tons/year) through handling activities
