Description
Summary:This paper examines Refused Derived Fuel (RDF) potential from Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) as cement industry's alternative fuel in developing country. Municipal solid waste remains an issues for city while cement industry are needed a sustainable alternative fuel resources. Jeruklegi Landfill, in Cilacap City, Central Java Province, Indonesia was selected as a research case, because its location is close to cement industry. Research's approach is using triple bottom line sustainability; economic, social and environment. It investigates RDF potential from quality aspects (calorific value), economic aspect (RDF price), environment aspect (GHG emission) and social inclusion of waste picker. It is found that MSW on Jeruklegi Landfill has a potential for processing in to RDF, since its average calorific value is 3563 Kcal/kg, price is 293,000 IDR/ton, and avoided 2.9x106 Nm3 methane emission. An inclusive approach should be taken into account in early stage to engage waste picker rather that marginalized them. This findings contributes to government as well as cement industry on RDF as a solution for waste management and fossil fuel conservation.
