Abstract

Waste management in the coastal area of Lhoknga District Aceh Besar Regency, still faces various challenges, both technical and non-technical. Waste is generally disposed of without segregation, openly burned, or directly discharged into the environment without adequate treatment. This study aims to analyze the existing conditions of solid waste management, map material flows within the waste management system, and formulate strategies for implementing a circular economy approach using SWOT analysis. The methods employed include field observations, waste generation measurements, and in-depth interviews with local residents. The results indicate that household activities are the dominant source of waste generation, with the largest composition consisting of organic waste, particularly coconut waste with a generation rate of 0.061 kg/person/day and food waste amounting to 0.072 kg/person/day. The application of the 9R principles by the community remains limited and is primarily confined to reuse, recycle, and recovery practices. Based on the SWOT analysis, the waste management strategy is positioned in Quadrant I, indicating a favorable condition characterized by strong internal capacities and significant external opportunities. The recommended strategies emphasize an aggressive growth approach through the establishment of Waste Collecting Points (WCPs), the development of educational tourism initiatives, and the strengthening of local partnerships. This approach integrates material flow analysis with strategic assessment at the local level and is expected to support sustainable coastal waste management based on circular economy principles.

Abstract

Waste management remains a critical issue in Lhoknga Sub-district, Aceh Besar, due to limited facilities, inadequate collection systems, and low community participation. This study aims to plan an Integrated Waste Processing Facility (TPST) as a sustainable long-term waste management solution. A quantitative approach was applied through waste generation and composition sampling over eight consecutive days in accordance with SNI 19-3964-1994, covering both domestic and non-domestic sources. Fishbone analysis was employed to identify key factors influencing waste management performance. The findings indicate that organic waste, particularly food waste, dominates the waste composition. The proposed TPST is designed to manage 83.78 m³/day of waste projected until 2043, based on national standards and regional planning policies. This study contributes scientifically by offering a data-driven TPST planning framework that can be replicated in coastal and tourism-oriented regions facing similar waste management challenges.

Abstract

Eco-mosque represents an environmental awareness movement in architecture, which has been recognized globally. The design of the eco-mosque contributes to sustainable development, particularly environmental sustainability. This study reviews the eco-mosque practices in both certified and non-certified mosques. Optimizing the PRISMA framework, five articles of 205 initial results, which were published between 2020 and 2025, were included in this study. The data was analyzed by thematic and comparative methods. The results indicate that certified mosque implements integrated advanced technology guided by green building standards, such as energy-efficient materials, renewable energy, and a water recycling system. Meanwhile, non-certified mosques, including traditional ones, highlight the passive approaches such as using local material and natural ventilation, which align with environmental principles. This study emphasizes the need for an inclusive eco-mosque framework that embraces both certified innovations and context-responsive vernacular approaches, offering practical insight for sustainable religious architecture.

Abstract

Domestic waste generated from households, particularly food scraps as well as vegetable and fruit residues, represents a major environmental problem when not properly managed. One alternative solution to reduce domestic waste while producing value-added products is the conversion of household organic waste into eco-enzymes. This study aimed to describe the processing of domestic waste into eco-enzymes and to evaluate their potential applications as antibacterial agents and liquid organic fertilizers. Eco-enzymes were produced through a fermentation process using domestic waste, molasses, and water at a ratio of 1:3:10 for a period of three months. The fermentation process resulted in a dark brown liquid with a characteristic acidic aroma, indicating successful microbial activity. The resulting eco-enzymes exhibited antibacterial properties and contained various macro and micro nutrients essential for plant growth, suggesting their effectiveness as disinfectants and organic liquid fertilizers. In conclusion, eco-enzymes derived from domestic waste offer a sustainable and environmentally friendly approach for waste management while providing multifunctional products with potential applications in sanitation and agriculture.

Abstract

Differences in climate and human activities, such as deforestation and intensive agriculture, can increase litter carbon emissions, thereby contributing to global warming. Waterfall tourism areas possess vegetation characteristics that differ from those of natural forests, making it essential to analyze litter biomass and carbon storage in Pria Laot Waterfall Tourism Area, Sabang City. This study employed a purposive sampling method using transect lines and plots to determine litter biomass, carbon storage, and the environmental parameters influencing these factors. The results showed that the total litter biomass in Pria Laot Waterfall Area, Batee Shoek, Sabang, reached 6.47 kg, with an average of 1.32 kg per transect. Transect 3 exhibited the highest litter biomass (3.52 kg), while Transect 1 recorded the lowest (0.99 kg). The total stored litter carbon in the area was 0.253 kg, with an average of 0.084 kg per transect. Transect 3 also had the highest litter carbon (0.138 kg), whereas Transect 1 had the lowest (0.039 kg). The litter carbon storage in the area amounted to 2.53 tons/ha, with Transect 3 showing the highest value (1.38 tons/ha) and Transect 1 the lowest (0.39 tons/ha). The study concludes that variations exist in litter biomass and carbon storage across transects, where transects located near settlements exhibited higher biomass and carbon storage. These findings indicate that environmental factors play a crucial role in determining litter and carbon distribution.

Abstract

Langsa City faces escalating challenges from hydrometeorological disasters that threaten socio-economic stability, as evidenced by the extreme flooding event on November 26, 2025. This study aims to formulate an integration model between local spatial planning policies (RDTR/RTRW) and capacity-based disaster mitigation paradigms within the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) framework, specifically Goal 13 (Climate Action). Employing a descriptive qualitative method with a spatial approach, this research identifies infrastructure vulnerabilities and socio-economic impacts across five districts. Spatial analysis reveals that rice field land cover in Langsa dropped from 2,410 hectares in 2012 to 1,925 hectares in 2025, representing a significant loss of natural water retention. Analysis of the November 26, 2025, event reveals spatial anomalies where floodwaters encroached into zones previously categorized as "low risk," indicating a systemic dysfunction of infiltration systems due to uncontrolled land conversion. Despite the Qanun RTRW mandate for 30% Green Open Space (RTH), field implementation is hindered by limited indigenous engagement in autonomous mitigation. This article recommends a drainage network engineering strategy integrated with Gampong Social Capital specifically institutional trust in Geuchik and Tuha Peut as a sustainable urban resilience solution. These findings contribute to the global urban resilience literature by emphasizing the empowerment of the smallest community units as a mitigation basis in developing nations.
