Indonesia’s Municipal Solid Waste 3R and Waste to Energy Programs

Abstract: Like most cities in the world, population in Indonesia continues to grow every year. Problems that can arise from this are the increasing amount of municipal solid waste (MSW) production and the growing demand for electricity. To deal with the problems, Indonesian government runs 3R (Reduce, Reuse and Recycle) and WTE (Waste to Energy) Programs simultaneously. 3R program aims to reduce the number of waste, while WTE program aims to generate electricity as an alternative energy source. This study aims to find o… Show more

“…Indonesia's population of more than 260 million notwithstanding, budget constraints limit the availability of adequate waste treatment facilities (BPS, 2018). The use of RDF as an AF is expected not only to impact economically because of lower costs, but also to assist in handling MSW (Genon & Brizio, 2008 Farizal et al, 2018;Hong et al, 2018). The downside could be the larger amounts of heavy metals in the waste gas, so the quality and the quantity of RDF should be carefully analysed (Genon & Brizio, 2008).…”

“…Most of the waste management in Indonesia still relies on TPA. The majority of landfills in Indonesia are open dumping landfill types [2]. The application of an open dumping system causes the spread of leachate due to the absence of a retaining layer under the surface of the waste pile [3].…”

“…Yet, outside of that, MSW management in Indonesia still relies heavily on landfill. Where 69% of total MSW went into the landfill and the others got independently handled [9]. One of the largest and widely used one by the Jakarta government is the Bantargebang Landfill in Bekasi (see Fig.…”
