Abstract

Jakabaring Sport City is an integrated sports area of 325 Ha, consisting of sports and residential facilities. During the sporting event, the volume of municipal solid waste (MSW) from this region increases along with the number of visitors and athletes who are active in the region. This study aims to measure the generation rate and composition of MSW in the Jakabaring Sport City area during the sporting activities, namely the XVIII Asian Games. Measurements were carried out for seven days in the span of the XVIII Asian Games (18 August 2018 - 2 September 2018). Sampling was carried out in nine sports facilities and all residential facilities located at Jakabaring Sport City (athletes homestead, rental apartments, and apartments), according to the distribution of MSW containers in each facility. The MSW generation rate is obtained by dividing the total volume of waste by total visitors and the day of use of sports or residential facilities. While the composition of MSW (in the wet weight fraction) is divided into organic waste and inorganic waste (plastic, paper and residue). The measurement results show differences in the rate of MSW generation between sports facilities and residential facilities in the Jakabaring Sport City area. In sports facilities, MSW generation rate is measured at 0.0329 kg/person/day with the composition of MSW dominated by organic waste (= 59.19%). The measured density of MSW in sports facilities was 525.80 kg/m3. Whereas in residential facilities, the MSW generation rate is measured at 0.7255 kg/person/day, with the composition of MSW dominated by inorganic waste (= 42%). The average waste density in residential facilities is 270.57 kg/m3. The rate of MSW generation in residential facilities is higher than the rate of MSW generation in the sports area, may be due to differences in usage hours of the two types of facilities. Further research is needed on the rate of waste generation per hour of use in sports facilities during a sporting event in the region.

Summary

Introduction

Jakabaring Sport City is an integrated sports area of 325 hectares that has twenty sports venues along with supporting facilities, located in the Seberang Ulu area (about five km from the center of Palembang City). This area is an area for organizing international standard sports activities which are participated in by many countries such as ASIAN Games, SEA Games and other international sports activities. There are results of measurements of the rate of MSW generation in the Gelora Bung Karno, Jakarta; sports areas in Thailand; and waste generation in New Tottenham Hotspur Football Club (THFC) Stadium. In the Gelora Bung Karno, that has the same characteristics as the Jakabaring Sport City, but does not have
