Abstract

Industry X is one of the sectors of the fertilizer and chemical industries that produce ammonia and urea. Their factory has a mass production that also makes them produce a huge amount of waste, especially Hazardous and Toxic Waste (B3 in Indonesian abbreviation). The resulting hazardous waste hereinafter referred to B3 Wastes, will then be managed under the applicable laws and regulations. The management of B3 wastes starts from the source and the producer of B3 wastes, temporary storage (TPS LB3 and TPS Fly Ash and Bottom Ash), waste labelling, and the generation of B3 wastes. This study aim (1) to recognize the condition of B3 in Industry X, (2) to identify kind of B3 waste in Industry X, and (3) to evaluate the operational of B3 packaging and labelling, The researchers will hold an observation, literature study, interview, and discussion as the data collection methods. Additionally, the analysis of the results and discussion of this study uses qualitative descriptions.

Highlights

  • The demand for fertilizer in Indonesia is very high and continues to increase year by year

  • The observations on Work Safety aspects indicate that the efforts of the fertilizer industry X, in particular, can be said to be precise, since every employee and guest who enters the factory area must go through the following procedure: (1) Following the Personal Data Fill and Evaluation (PDPE) executed by the KAMTIB (security and order) Department

  • The TPS buildings and B3 waste management permits are already performed under the applicable terms and conditions, whether the location as well as the temporary storage building

Summary

Introduction

The demand for fertilizer in Indonesia is very high and continues to increase year by year. The increase in fertilizer production in Indonesia leads to an increase in waste generation. This problem is undertaken by one of the fertilizers producing companies in the west region of Indonesia [1]. The factory mass production certainly makes them generate a massive waste, especially Hazardous and Toxic Waste (B3 in Indonesian abbreviation). The amount of generated waste must be supported by the availability of adequate storage capacity and done under B3 waste management standards. As the background, this study aims to identify and evaluate the conformity of the application of B3 waste storage and management in the fertilizer industry
