Abstract :
ABSTRACT The increasing population and urbanization in Jepara Regency have led to a significant rise in domestic waste generation, reaching over 154,571.51 tons in 2023. Current waste management methods, which predominantly rely on the "collect?transport-dispose" paradigm, have caused overcapacity in the Bandengan Landfill, Jepara Regency's sole operational landfill after the closure of Krasak and Gemulung Landfills. This situation necessitates an innovative waste processing approach to extend landfill lifespan and minimize environmental impacts. This study focuses on the technical planning of an Integrated Waste Processing Site in Jepara, Tahunan, Kedung, and Mlonggo Sub-Districts using Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) technology with the biodrying method. Biodrying leverages microbial activity to reduce waste moisture content, transforming domestic waste into an alternative fuel source for industrial applications, such as cement production and power generation. By utilizing RDF, the study aims to enhance waste-to-energy practices, reduce dependency on fossil fuels, and support the national renewable energy mix target of 23% by 2025. The research methodology includes analyzing current waste characteristics, projecting waste generation until 2043, and designing technical components of the proposed Integrated Waste Processing Site, including waste processing requirements, which involves storage capacity, processing capacity, and land requirements, and also RDF distribution. The results demonstrate that RDF technology can significantly reduce landfill-bound waste while offering economic and environmental benefits. The proposed Integrated Waste Processing Site framework serves as a model for addressing waste management challenges in medium-sized cities across Indonesia. Key words: Integrated Waste Processing Site; Refuse Derived Fuel; Biodrying; Domestic Waste; Waste-to-Energy.
