This study explains two recycling process category with plastic pellets and fuel as main products. Fuel can be utilized by vehicles and plastic pellets has economical value. Reduction of waste in plastic waste recycling process was conducted using value stream mapping approach. The research of plastic recycling was done through literature review and direct survey. In first stage, several analyses were made: plastic waste processing category, Value Added Time (VAT) and Non Value Added Time (NVAT), also process time per work station. As the result, current stream mapping was obtained. In the second analysis stage, comparison between two processing category revealed that the highest dissipation came from motion waste, waiting time waste, and movement waste. Big picture mapping was used to improve the quality of waste recycling process based on the procedures that has been established Fore mentioned dissipation can be reduced by adding the number of operator equipped with safety gear in washing and drying.
