Solid waste is one of the priority issues in DKI Jakarta. DKI Jakarta generates 7600 tonnes waste per day. 90% of that waste is transported to the landfill final disposal site in Bantar Gebang located in Bekasi City. It is foreseen that the capacity of the landfill will reach its maximum capacity. Therefore, waste reduction and management at source is important in the overall strategy of DKI Jakarta in significantly reducing its waste generation and disposal.
