Abstract

Waste cannot be separated from people’s daily activities, resulting in a lot of waste accumulation in various areas, especially in densely populated areas. Waste management is now a common problem. The waste management paradigm must be based on the concept of waste management that supports the principles of sustainable environmental development. System dynamic modeling is used to formulate policies related to waste management because of its ability to solve problems systematically and consider the internal and external factors that affect sustainable environmental development. Several alternative scenarios were developed to support environmentally sustainable development. The scenarios developed include (1) recycling processed food waste by turning it into compost with the help of larvae; (2) burning waste that is safe and environmentally friendly with the help of an incinerator (burning) for waste that is not suitable for use in the composting process, and (3) conducting socialization and community training to make compost and burn environmentally friendly waste to prevent flood disasters and dangers in the health sector of the community. This scenario can be a recommendation for the government and other related parties in formulating strategies and policies related to waste management to reduce waste accumulation that supports sustainable environmental development.
