Plastic waste is an issue highlighted in Indonesia, especially the management of plastic waste and COVID-19 plastic waste. Now it is often the talk of society about how to manage plastic waste, COVID-19 plastic waste, and why people throw it away not according to regulations. This study aims to analyze the weaknesses of the waste management policy strategy and provide the best solution. A qualitative research approach using purposive sampling has been determined for policy-makers at the provincial and city levels, COVID-19 waste and waste managers, informal community leaders, and community members. Initial data was obtained using a Systematic Literature Review, and further data was obtained from in-depth interviews with 180 key informants. The results of this study indicate that the success of COVID-19 plastic waste management will run more optimally if it is communicated to the entire community community through the information, communication, and education program, follows procedures, has an adequate budget, increases knowledge through training, and disseminates regulations to improve community behavior. The contribution of this research lies in two key factors; namely, success is largely determined by the involvement of the House of Representatives Province and City to increase the budget for plastic waste and Covid-19 waste management and increase public knowledge through regulatory communication.

“…Slope is an important criterion in dumpsite selection, as it determines the runoff of the site [31]. A mild slope of less than 12% is suitable for dumpsites [32], as steep slopes increase excavation costs and leachate pollution [31]. A buffer distance of 500 m must be established around rivers or surface water bodies to prevent leachate pollution [33].…”

“…Roads and railways are crucial for transporting wastes [34], and the selected site should be away from primary and secondary roads to minimize transportation costs [29,34,35]. Built-up areas should be carefully assessed, as dumpsites can cause harm from various factors, including odors, noise, and health issues [32]. A distance of more than 1000 m is considered appropriate [36].…”

Solid waste disposal is an essential component of any waste management system, but finding suitable solid waste disposal sites is seen as the main challenge. The goal of this study was to locate solid waste disposal facilities in Lilongwe that would not present logistical or operational difficulties. We used a hybrid approach involving qualitative and quantitative methods. Primary and secondary data were collected, through interviews, questionnaires, and GPS for coordinates. The study considered 10 suitability factors of slopes, rivers, soil types, built-up areas, airports, forests, wetlands, current dumpsites, roads, and railways weighted using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). We analyzed site selection techniques, evaluated the current dumpsite, and created a multi-factor geographic information system (GIS) model. This study found that the current dumpsite is dangerous for human health and is close to homes. Additionally, this research reveals that the most popular techniques for choosing the location of a solid waste disposal facility are the AHP and weighted linear combination (WLC) coupled with GIS. Out of 46,283 Ha in Lilongwe, 84.07% are unsuitable, 14.97% are suitable, and 0.96% are highly suitable for solid waste disposal sites. Six sites with capacities ranging from 28 Ha to 94 Ha were identified as optimal to reduce operational costs in areas 55, 44, 58, and 61. Further waste recycling initiatives are recommended to reduce solid waste volume and promote sustainable waste management practices.

“…[34] reported that landuse/landcover was found to be the most influential factor in WtE facility siting while slope was the least influential factor. Conversely, [35] reported that the distance to river was the most important factor in determining a suitable landfill location for energy generation in Jabodetabek Area of Indonesia. However, [36] found that based on economic/technical and socio-cultural criteria, potential sites for locating WtE facilities in Lom´e of Togo are more influenced by slope and residence criteria.…”

“…Certain distance should be set apart from the WtE plant in order to reduce the various effects of pollutants associated with the plant operations on the natural environment [40]. Distance from waterbody is a significant criterion in siting WtE facilities to prevent pollution and contamination of waterbody [35]. Figure 3d and Table 6 reveal that locations at a distance of ≤600 meters from waterbody (rivers and streams) are highly suitable while those locations at a distance of ≤100 meters from waterbody are not suitable for WtE facility.…”

Site Suitability Analysis for Waste to Energy Facility in Onitsha North Local Government Area, Anambra State, Nigeria

Onitsha North Local Government Area (LGA) in Anambra State is an industrial and commercial city in south eastern Nigeria that is currently facing serious environmental problems resulting from poor solid waste management system. Also, the city is experiencing poor electricity supply at a time of increasing energy demand for domestic and industrial activities. The rate of solid waste generation in the city has increased with rapid urbanisation, population growth and economic expansion. Exploiting the energy potentials of the huge amount of waste generated in the area through Waste to Energy (WtE) technology is an efficient and sustainable waste management strategy that can be deployed in order to boost the energy supply mix in the area. However, the viability of WtE adoption has not been investigated in the study area. As a first and critical step in that direction, this study combined Geographic Information System (GIS) and Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) techniques to identify suitable sites for WtE facility in Onitsha North with a view to determining the viability of adopting WtE in the area. The factors used for multicriteria evaluation are Land use/Land cover, distance from road, distance from surface water, distance from existing dumpsite and slope. The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to assign relative weights to these factors. The Weighted Overlay method was used to integrate these factors in ArcGIS environment to produce suitability map for WtE facility in the study area. Results showed that less than 1% and 77% of the study area were found to be moderately suitable and marginally suitable respectively for siting WtE facility; while 21% and 0.33% of the study area were found to be less suitable and not suitable respectively. The study has provided the basic information required for harnessing waste energy potential for sustainable development in Onitsha North. The waste energy potentials can be exploited to provide alternative energy source for industrialisation and economic activities in the area. The WtE will also serve as an alternative efficient waste management strategy in the study area. The combination of GIS and MCDA techniques has proven to be efficient in site suitability analysis, hence it can be applied in solving multicriteria decision problems.
