Abstract

The waste management situation in Sukabumi city is still not well-controlled. The management pattern still follows the linear model, which involves collection, transportation, and disposal. However, for certain types of waste that are considered to have economic value, circular economy principles are indirectly applied. The largest percentage of waste found in the final waste disposal site is organic waste. This type of waste has caused pollution in water, air, and soil, as well as social conflicts due to the discomfort of the local population. Therefore, innovative organic waste management with the application of circular economy principles needs to be implemented at various scales, including household scale, neighborhood scale, and city scale. At the household scale, there is no longer any disposal of organic waste from homes, and there are several alternatives for managing it. At the neighborhood scale, the construction of composting houses will become a new source of income. At the city scale, the processing of various types of organic waste will serve as an educational platform for the community. Based on calculations, the implementation of circular economy principles will have a positive impact on reducing waste disposal to final disposal sites, improving the local economy, and contributing to environmental sustainability.
