Abstract

The many impacts of improper solid waste management have made every region run a solid waste management system (SWMS) in a sustainable manner. It is necessary to evaluate it using the appropriate indicators to assess the sustainability of a SWMS. This study uses a sustainability indicator consisting of 27 indicators divided into six groups, which are suitable for assessing the sustainability of SWMS. This study found that the SWMS condition in Makassar City was still far from being sustainable. The results found that SWMS in Makassar City scored 58% in the general group, 95% in the collection and sorting group, 57% in the recycling group, 20% in the composting group, 20% in the energy recovery group, and 24% in the landfill group.
