Abstract

Electronic waste (e-waste) has become one of the fastest-growing waste streams in the world. However, only 17.4% of it can be collected and recycled in 2019. This study aims to formulate strategies to improve the supply chain of e-waste management in Indonesia. Methods used to develop strategies in this study are the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL), the Analytical Network Process (ANP), Strength–Weaknesses–Opportunities–Threats (SWOT), and the Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix (QSPM). The results show that infrastructure criteria have the largest weight, that is 0.267, followed by a social environment with 0.261, regulation with 0.244, stakeholder with 0.122, and economy with 0.054. The top priority of the selected strategies is to improve public education (ST1) and provide socialization of regulations and sanctions to the public (ST2).

Highlights

The result became a reference to carry out the second stage questionnaire with the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) method to obtain the interrelationships between criteria and sub-criteria where there are 5 criteria and 18 sub-criteria, each of which is looking for a relationship, where the Total-Relation
Based on the results of the third stage questionnaire regarding the ranking of the criteria of processing results with super decision software, it is known that the infrastructure criteria have the largest weight, that is, 0.26762, followed by a social environment with 0.26162, regulation with
The sub-criteria needed to be considered for the improvement of the e-waste management of televisions and monitor screens in DKI Jakarta using Pareto were in the sub-criteria of EK2, IN1, IN3, IN1, RE1, RE4, RE3, SL1, SL3, SL2, SH1, SH2, and SH3

Summary

Introduction

In 2019, a total of 53.6 million tons (Mt) of e-waste were produced across the world, which represents 21% in just 5 years. E-waste is divided into six main categories that are very suitable for the characteristics of their waste management. Indonesia leads with the highest Southeast Asian e-waste rate of 745 thousand tons/year, followed by Thailand with 418 thousand tons/year. Malaysia is next to Indonesia with 250 thousand tons/year and Singapore with 109 thousand tons/year. Cambodia became the country with the lowest rate of e-waste in Southeast Asia, with 16 thousand tons/year. The high amount of e-waste in Indonesia needs to be balanced with an effective e-waste management infrastructure so that more opportunities for e-waste utilization in Indonesia may be pursued [3]
