“…From the graph above, it can be seen that the batik industry in Pekalongan City is dominated by Small and Medium Industries (SMIs) and the number of macro industries has a smaller number and is spread across four sub-districts in Pekalongan City with a total batik industry until the year two rubu twenty-two reaching one thousand eight hundred and fifty, when compared it is very unbalanced with the number of communal Intalasi Pengolahan Air Limbah (IPAL) capacities provided by the government, which are only four IPAL units located in four locations, namely in East Pekalongan District one unit, South Pekalongan two units, West Pekalongan one unit and North Pekalongan none at all, even though the number of household batik industries in North Pekalongan sub-district totals three hundred and fifty nine businesses and occupies the third largest position after South Pekalongan sub-district with six hundred and ninety industries and followed by West Pekalongan with five hundred and twenty industries afterwards (Afifi, n.d, 2023), With the large number of batik industries in Pekalongan City coupled with the lack of awareness or understanding of small-scale Batik Industry industry entrepreneurs in Pekalongan City, it must require more attention from the government to make policies that are able to become a solution in solving the problem of batik industry waste in Pekalongan City, with the aim of being able to avoid matters that can adversely affect the survival of living things in a polluted environment in Pekalongan City. According to Mahida (1984) Waste is the residue of the production of a business or activity that contains hazardous or toxic materials which, due to their nature, concentration, and amount, either directly or indirectly, can endanger the environment, health, human survival and other living things (Andayanie, 2021).…”
