Abstract

A zero-waste concept does not necessarily mean that someone should not produce waste at all, which is impossible, rather the waste dumped to disposal site is minimized or zero. On the other hand, in many developing cities in Asia, the municipal solid waste is predominantly biodegradable waste, which accounted for 60-80 percent. Therefore, the zero-waste thinking is largely depending on the way handling the biodegradable waste. biodegradable waste treatments are straightforward towards zero landfill through composting and waste-to-energy program that produces biogas and electricity. This study attempts to understand the process towards zero-waste at the landfill site, through conventional engineering and technology of waste recycling, composting and producing energy from the waste, amid the dilemma between sustainable life and ever-increasing waste production.
