Abstract
FW has a detrimental impact on the environment and holds potential for energy recovery through its utilization. Surabaya implement waste-to-energy (WtE) as a sustainable solution for waste management and energy needs. This research highlights the environmental concerns of FW and the potential for energy generation. This implies that existing waste management practices might not be fully addressing the energy recovery potential of FW in Indonesia especially in urban cities. The primary objective of this study was to analyze the energy potential of FW in Surabaya City using Material Flow Analysis (MFA). Black Soldier Fly (BSF), composting, anaerobic digestion (AD) generates substantial material and energy. Landfill and gasification were generated with a capacity of 2 Megawatt (MW) and 11 MW, respectively. This study uses a graphical MFA to provide fundamental information for assessing the sustainable management feasibility of converting FW into energy in Surabaya.
