Abstract

Permasalahan sampah organik dan plastik bernilai rendah (Low Value Plastic/LVP) di Indonesia semakin mendesak, ditandai oleh timbulan sampah organik sebesar 55,73%, sampah plastik sebesar 17,3% dan pengelolaan sampah yang masih di bawah target. LVP kerap dianggap tidak memiliki nilai ekonomis karena sulit didaur ulang, sehingga banyak berakhir di TPA atau mencemari lingkungan. LVP memiliki potensi untuk diolah kembali menjadi bahan struktural baru melalui pendekatan ekonomi sirkuler. Perancangan ini disusun untuk mengidentifikasi bagaimana LVP dapat mendukung perilaku pemilahan sampah, dan merancang tempat sampah komposter berbahan utama LVP untuk memperkuat pengolahan sampah lokal. Sebagai solusi, penelitian ini mengusulkan perancangan tempat sampah-komposter modular dari material plastik LVP daur ulang. Desain terintegrasi ini menggabungkan dua fungsi utama: pemisahan sampah (organik dan anorganik) dan pengomposan on-site. Modul-modul tempat sampah dirancang fleksibel agar dapat disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan sekolah, sementara tangki komposter memproses sampah organik menjadi pupuk. Material plastik tahan cuaca dipilih untuk kekuatan dan biaya rendah, dan elemen edukatif berupa label jenis sampah dan fakta unik proses kompos disertakan agar menjadi media pembelajaran sains lingkungan bagi siswa. Metode perancangan meliputi survei dan observasi kebiasaan sampah di sekolah, eksperimen uji sifat fisik bahan plastik LVP (kekuatan dan ketahanan), analisis desain, serta pembuatan dan pengujian prototipe. Hasil perancangan berupa produk dan prototipe produk tempat sampah-komposter modular dengan wadah terpisah untuk sampah serta fitur edukasi terpadu. Tempat sampah berbentuk trapesium berbahan dasar LVP dan diberi aksentuasi akrilik dengan 4 modul jenis sampah, disertai tumbling komposter heksagonal dan bisa diputar. Produk ini diharapkan mampu menekan volume sampah tercampur di sekolah sekaligus meningkatkan literasi lingkungan. Pengelolaan sampah organik dengan komposter menghasilkan pupuk kompos dan mengurangi limbah organik, serta melibatkan siswa untuk lingkungan di sekolahnya. Dengan demikian, tempat sampah-komposter berbahan plastik LVP daur ulang ini memiliki potensi mendukung pengurangan limbah tercampur dan memperkuat edukasi lingkungan.

The issue of organic waste and low-value plastic (LVP) in Indonesia is becoming increasingly urgent, marked by organic waste comprising 55.73% and plastic waste 17.3% of the total waste generated, while overall waste management remains below target. LVP is often considered to have low economic value due to its recycling difficulty, causing it to end up in landfills or pollute the environment. However, LVP has the potential to be repurposed into new structural materials through a circular economy approach. This design project aims to identify how LVP can support waste-sorting behavior and to develop a composting bin made primarily from LVP to enhance local waste processing. As a solution, this research proposes the design of a modular composting waste bin using recycled LVP material. The integrated design combines two main functions: waste separation (organic and inorganic) and on-site composting. The waste bin modules are designed to be flexible and adaptable to school environments, while the composting tank processes organic waste into fertilizer. Weather-resistant plastic material is chosen for durability and low cost, and educational elements such as waste type labels and unique compost facts are included to serve as environmental science learning tools for students. The design method includes surveys and observations of waste habits in schools, material experiments testing the physical properties of LVP (strength and durability), design analysis, as well as prototype development and testing. The final output is a modular composting bin product concept and prototype, featuring separated compartments and integrated educational elements. A trapezoid-shaped trash bin made of LVP material, accented with acrylic, featuring four modular waste categories, accompanied by a rotatable hexagonal tumbling composter. This product is expected to reduce mixed waste volume in schools while improving environmental literacy. Organic waste management through composting not only produces compost fertilizer and reduces waste but also engages students in contributing to their school’s environmental efforts. Thus, a composting bin made from recycled LVP has strong potential to support the reduction of mixed waste and strengthen environmental education.
