Community-based urban waste management: Performance of TPS 3R waste treatment facility in Sleman Regency

Abstract: Waste treatment facilities reduce, reuse, and recycle (TPS 3R) exist in order to increase community participation in reducing waste at the source. This paper aims to determine the distribution and describe the performance of TPS 3R in Sleman Regency in reducing household waste and realising circular economy activities at the community level. The method used is a quantitative descriptive approach with spatial analysis across 42 TPS 3R units in Sleman Regency. Distribution of TPS 3R is almost evenly spread across all subdistricts and clustered in urban areas. Facilities in urban areas tend to be operational, whereas in rural areas some are not. Population density, accessibility, economic level, and employment type are external factors that affect the sustainability of facilities. This has an impact on internal factors, namely managerial capacity, managers’ welfare, and operational financing capacity. Both factors influence the type of innovation undertaken in support of the circular economy.
