Abstract. This study aims to find out how far the implementation of the concept of Zero Waste
in waste management in Banda Aceh City. The problem of increasingly complex garbage due
to the increasing amount of waste along with population growth. During this time generally
waste is transported and disposed to the Final Processing Place (TPA) so that all garbage piled
up in the landfill. Most of the waste handling is done after the garbage appears so it is difficult
to manage it. Handling of garbage from scratch is still minimal so the TPA becomes full fast.
The concept of Zero Waste is to minimize waste generation so that less waste is wasted to the
landfill. This is so as not to waste resources and prevent environmental damage. Handling of
waste from the beginning of waste avoidance, waste sorting, producer responsibility, waste
levies according to the amount of disposal, waste management by the community and the
provision of incentives and disincentives is the implementation parameter of Zero Waste. This
concept should be integrated into local policy so it becomes an obligation for the government
and the community to implement it. A number of cities around the world have implemented
Zero Waste policies and set a target to reduce waste disposal to TPA as small as possible.
Banda Aceh as a medium-sized city in Indonesia has integrated a number of Zero Waste
concepts in its local regulations. Some of these concepts are difficult to implement due to a
number of socio-political factors.
1. Introduction
Urban waste that can be transported and disposed to the landfill or TPA amounts to between 60% -70%
of the total urban trash and the remainder scattered in polluting the environment [6]. The Government
of Indonesia mandates the closure of TPA using the open dumping system through Law No. 18/2008
on Waste Management as the legal basis. This mandate must be implemented by the district or city
government within a maximum of 5 years (until 2013) since the law is ratified. Furthermore, it is
required to build a new landfill that must use the Sanitary Landfill system in accordance with
applicable standards and regulations [21].
However, the open dumping landfill rule did not work well because most of the landfill in
Indonesia remained in operation as before, as the research findings conducted by [17]. Though the

landfill is planned to run the system Sanitary Landfill [19].The open dumping disposal system implies
that the amount of greenhouse gases produced by the landfill increases as well as the leachate water
that is a toxic waste from the landfill.
On the other hand, the issue of global warming and climate change and its impacts on humans has
led people to think about sustainable natural resources. Limited non-renewable resources allow people
to think hard about how to save the remaining natural resources. Zero Waste management system (ZW)
or "no of Waste" becomes one of the holistic solutions in managing waste and resources in a city on an
ongoing basis [36].
Waste management is still a big challenge for the government of Banda Aceh. These challenges
include community awareness is still relatively low, especially the people who trading in the market,
the lack of garbage collection facilities, and the limited number of counseling workers so that the
campaign intensity is still relatively low [11]. Several programs in the Banda Aceh Solid Waste
Management Masterplan since 2007 have been implemented, such as the introduction of recycling of
waste, the rehabilitation of the old TPA in KampungJawa, as well as the construction of a new Sanitary
Landfill in Aceh Besar district [7]
TPA KampungJawa belonging to the Banda Aceh Government has now over capacity so it is time
to move another place. The landfill can be longer if the concept of waste management from upstream
applied. Banda Aceh's waste policy has included several principles of Zero Waste in the handling of
municipal solid waste. This study was conducted to find out how far the concept of Zero Waste is
implemented in the city of Banda Aceh for better handling of waste.
2. Discussion
2.1. The development of Zero Waste concept
Eliminating waste from production process to costumer usage is a waste minimization strategy
[38]. Waste is more often regarded as useless goods by society and even industry. This is actually a
false view if humans understand and realize how waste has a price and can also harm environment. A
global understanding has emerged, widely accepting the effects of climate change, including loss of
biodiversity, increased air pollution, water and soil, deforestation and reduced resources and materials,
as a consequence of excessive consumption of unsustainable production processes.
About 20% of the waste can be recycled or recovered annually where the world's waste generates
four billion metric [3]. Increased waste generation is caused by linear material flow rate system where
the waste ends in the landfill. Currently the world is more run a linear economic system where the
product will end up just like that in the landfill. While the concept of Zero Waste (ZW) is the opposite
of linear circular system is the flow rate of material is a circular system where the end of the product
becomes the beginning of the another product as well (nothing is wasted). Figure 1 shows the
comparison of the material flow rate between linear and circular systems.

[20] was the first to use the term Zero Waste in 1973 as a term to recover resources from chemical
waste. A number of cities in the world in 1995 adopted No Waste legislation to achieve the 2010
targets and Canberra became the first city in the world to successfully achieve ZW targets [5, 26]
The emergence of ZW regulations in New Zealand in 1997 supported the initiative to minimize
waste through the ZW movement in the country. This movement voiced intensive "closed loop material
economy system in which a product is made for reuse, repair and recycling, an economic system that
minimizes and ultimately closed circle of the economy; one in which products are made for reuse,
repair and recycling, economies that minimize and ultimately eliminate waste” [31]. In 2000, Del
Norte County, California became the first state in the USA to implement a comprehensive ZW plan
and in 2001, the California Integrated Waste Management Board adopted the ZW goal as a strategic
waste management plan [5]. Achievements and events related to ZW development can be seen in
Table 2. Applying ZW means eliminating all disposal in soil, water or air which is a threat to the
planet, human health, animals or plants [39]

Eliminating incinerators, landfills, throwaway societies and creating communities that manage
sustainable waste are ideals of ZW. ZW implementation can not be expected to run in short time or for
example within a year, but we can plan a situation that is very close to ZW in the next five or ten years
[4]. Excessive exploitation causes the natural resources to become increasingly limited in number,
creating uncertain future development. This should be prevented, therefore humans should engage in
sustainable consumption and waste management strategies based on (1) waste avoidance, (2) material
efficiency and (3) restoration of resources [15].
The ZW concept continues to grow, not stopping just as recycled but also restructuring the product
design to prevent the issue of waste in the early stages [33]. Figure 2. shows the steps that can be done
if the city implements ZW well then the city can be turned into a city of ZW.

should prioritize and leverage ZW into a comprehensive strategic work plan. After implementing the
ZW work plan, ZW performance evaluation is done to know the extent of its success [35].
A number of factors contribute to influence waste generation and composition of urban solid
waste such as norms and culture, waste management policy and coverage area. One of the main factors
affecting is the income of the community where the income of the community influences because the
habit of consumptive and lifestyle is very dependent on income.
The World Bank estimates that in developing countries, municipalities typically spend 20-50
percent of their budgets on solid waste management, yet 30-60 percent of municipal solid waste is not
transported and less than 50 percent of the population is served. In low-income countries, garbage
collection alone accounts for 80-90 percent of the waste management budget. While in middle-income
countries, the cost of collecting 50-80 percent of the total budget and in high-income countries, garbage
collection takes up less than 10 percent of the waste budget, resulting in large funds allocated to
sewage treatment facilities. Upstream community participation in developed countries reduces
collection costs and can establish waste recycling and recovery facilities [23].

Based on a waste management study conducted by the UNEP in 2004, it shows that only 33
percentage of solid waste management service indicators are met by the government. This means that
the level of waste services carried out by the Indonesian government is still low. There are many
factors that affect this low service. The existing waste management laws were inadequate, leading to
inefficient waste management in Indonesia. This law does not specifically regulate solid waste
management.
Many cities face landfill problems due to limited availability of land and open dumping sites with
no sanitation systems, such as soil cover, leachate collection and environmental pollution treatment
systems through CH4 emissions and leach intrusion into groundwater and surface. This situation is a
challenge but it also offers the potential to better manage municipal solid waste. The potential and
challenges in municipal solid waste in Indonesia are shown in Table 2.

The compilation of the national waste law itself was triggered by the occurrence of landslide of
the final waste processing site located in BantarGebang which had killed thousands [2].

This EPR practice has never been implemented in Banda Aceh even at the national level.
Instruments reinforcing EPR policy have not yet been established but 28 large companies in Indonesia
have voluntarily implemented EPR [10]. Local companies in Banda Aceh have not implemented this
rule at all.
Payments as regulated by Qanun above do not consider the amount of waste disposed of which
is less consideration of the principle of fairness. It could be that the service recipient pays cheaper even
though the garbage is more than the other party who pays more for the money even though the garbage
is less. This EPR scheme, when combined with good infrastructure to separate different waste and

good citizens awareness, can improve the recycling [18]. Banda Aceh government can not apply this
rule due to the lack of support from the legislative and the low willingness of the community to pay
retribution [13].
4. Conclusion
1. Zero Waste can be analternative concept in waste management in Indonesia because Zero Waste is a
concept that starts from, prevents waste in "upstream" to "downstream", not just handling waste by
dumping it tolandfil.
2. Require the involvement of all parties in implementing the concept of Zero Waste, ranging from
private parties, governments and communities in the implementation of this concept.
3. Policy support from the national government in the form of a firmer regulation is required for ZW to
be implemented properly.
4. The Municipal Government of Banda Aceh has included a number of ZW principles and
implemented some of them. The implementation of ZW still needs to be improved again in order to
really reduce waste.
Suggestion
1. The municipal government in Indonesia should immediately apply the concept of Zero Waste in
waste management where it is also a mandate of Law No.18 Year 2008 on Persampahann.
2. Zero Waste management campaigns can be implemented in the community so that awareness
appears to not create waste.
3. The waste management program should focus on increasing the role of the community in handling
waste, not just adding garbage collection equipment.
