N1  - A research study submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Marine Plastics Abatement; Research studies project report (M.) - Asian Institute of Technology, 2021
N2  - Overcapacity is one of the most problems of disposal sites in Bandung. Currently, plastic  waste is the second highest fraction in the waste composition, which landfill is the only final  treatment. The presence of non-recyclable plastics is one of the reasons that plastic waste  has low circularity. Non-recyclable plastic can be defined as any plastic that cannot be  recycled by the current recycling practice in a specific area because of technological  hindrances and poor management. The methodology of this study includes interviews, field  observations, and material flow analysis by using the STAN tool and Waste Flow Diagram.  Through the existing management of waste shown that around 67% of plastic non-recyclable  plastic is ending up in an open environment or landfill.  The key issues and challenges of non-recyclable plastics from each sector are insufficiencies  of infrastructure & facility, low understanding & knowledge of plastic, lack of awareness  and participation, plastic not design for recycling, data availability, waste segregation, lack  of material substitution, price of recycled resin, and stock of recycled resin. Two different  scenarios were proposed to predict non-recyclable plastic management in 2025, in which  scenario 1 applies technology and innovative practice, while scenario 2 focuses on upstream  policy for promoting a sustainable consumption lifestyle and green business. Digital  collection, material recovery facility, co-processing (i.e., RDF), and plastic-to-bricks are the  new management in scenario 1. On the other hand, scenario 2 promotes design-for-recycling,  choice editing, and extended producer responsibility (EPR). As a result, scenario 1 can  increase the amount of recyclability of plastic from 33% to 83%, while scenario 2 escalates  from 33% to 64%.
