Techno-Economic Analysis of Waste Processing Machines at the Jabon Sidoarjo TPA, Capacity 3 Tons/Hour for the Characteristics of Indonesian Waste Which has High Water Content, is Mixed and is Dominantly Organic

Abstract

The low awareness of the Indonesian people in sorting waste is indicated to be the main problem. It is believed that waste processing machines can be a short-term solution. However, the characteristics of mixed waste and moisture often make the machine fail to operate properly, even if it succeeds it often requires quite large costs and is not economically feasible. The waste processing machine examined in this research is claimed to be by the characteristics of Indonesian waste and economically feasible. This machine can convert waste into recycled raw materials and become Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) as a renewable energy source. It is necessary to carry out a techno-economic analysis of the performance of the machine and the products produced Puji Santoso*, Bambang Sudarmanta
