Abstract

A paradigm shift in waste management needs to be carried out in a sustainable manner. Education regarding residents' awareness and skills in applying the principles of reduce, reuse, recycle, and replant (4R) is very important to deal with waste problems from the source. Waste banks that involve women's participation serve as social capital in community-based management. In Nagari Pungguang Kasiak, Padang Pariaman Regency, Indonesia, a waste bank is implemented by integrating the 4R principles through the collection and sorting of dry waste, managed with a banking-like system, where what is saved is waste, not money. Community empowerment is carried out through counseling, education, and training with emancipatory participation methods, as well as interactive dialog within the community. In addition, building partnerships and cooperation mechanisms between waste bank managers and stakeholders is very important. The Sehati Waste Bank in Nagari Pungguang Kasiak has provided tangible benefits to the community, such as reducing waste volume, improving environmental cleanliness, and increasing economic independence. The economic benefits obtained from waste savings also contribute to electricity payments and food purchases. This program plays a role in creating a cleaner, greener, and healthier environment. With integrated waste management, community creativity and innovation can be encouraged, thereby improving the overall welfare of residents.

Abstract

Domestic wastewater management on university campuses is a crucial aspect of supporting sustainable development. As a center of academic and non-academic activities, Universitas Andalas produces a significant volume of domestic wastewater from the daily activities of its 31,549 academic community members as of 2023. One of its key facilities is the Shared Lecture Building complex, consisting of 10 buildings (A–J), which applies a separated wastewater management system: greywater from floor drains and washbasins is discharged directly into the nearest drainage, while blackwater from toilets is channeled into septic tanks. Currently, Universitas Andalas lacks comprehensive data and planning related to its Domestic Wastewater Management System (SPALD), despite Government Regulation No. 22 of 2021 requiring domestic wastewater to be safely treated before discharge into water bodies. This study aims to evaluate and provide recommendations for an effective and efficient SPALD, specifically for the Shared Lecture Buildings. The method used involves field observations to collect data on the existing conditions. The results show that of the 19 septic tanks observed, 36.84% did not meet vent pipe requirements, 21.05% did not follow the appropriate desludging interval, and 42.11% lacked inspection openings. Furthermore, the effluent from these septic tanks is directly discharged into drainage channels without further treatment, posing a risk of contamination to surrounding water bodies and groundwater. This study is expected to serve as a basis for improving septic tank systems in accordance with SNI 2398:2017, so that wastewater management at Universitas Andalas can operate more optimally and sustainably.
