Abstract

Background: The textile industry in Indonesia is rapidly growing, contributing to increasing synthetic dye waste, particularly Direct Blue 86 (DB-86), which is toxic and resistant to natural degradation. This study aims to develop an eco-friendly composite of ZnO-Silica through green synthesis using bamboo peel and Ketapang leaf extract for the photodegradation of DB-86. Methods: This study employs a literature review method to collect, analyze, and synthesize scientific data on the green synthesis of ZnO-silica composites from bamboo peel and their application in the photodegradation of Direct Blue 86 dye. Data were obtained from recent scholarly sources and analyzed through comparative synthesis and interpretation to evaluate the efficiency and potential of the materials in wastewater treatment. Findings: The findings of this study reveal that ZnO-silica composites synthesized via green synthesis using Ketapang leaf extract and bamboo peel-derived silica demonstrated high photocatalytic efficiency in degrading Direct Blue 86. Using the sol-gel method, the composite achieved a degradation efficiency of up to 99.10%. The optimal conditions included a catalyst dosage of 10 mg, dye concentration of 10 mg/L, and extended irradiation time. Compared to other catalysts like TiO₂ and MgO, the ZnO-silica composite showed competitive performance with lower required dosage and comparable degradation rates. Conclusion: The study concludes that bamboo peel, with its high silica content (98.31%), and ZnO derived from Ketapang leaves are effective and eco-friendly materials for the photodegradation of Direct Blue 86 dye, especially when synthesized using the sol-gel method with up to 99.10% efficiency. Novelty/Originality of this article: The novelty of this article lies in the innovative use of bamboo peel-derived silica and Ketapang leaf extract in a green synthesis approach to produce ZnO-silica composites for degrading Direct Blue 86 dye.

Abstract

Background: community-based circular economy initiatives increasingly require the integration of financial mechanisms with waste management and micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) empowerment. This study examines how the integration of gold savings–based waste banks with resin handicraft production from baby diaper waste can enhance MSMEs capacity, stabilize community participation, and support system sustainability. The research is grounded in institutional and behavioral economic theories, highlighting the role of value-stabilizing incentives in shaping household and MSMEs decision-making. Methods: a mixed-methods approach was employed, including participant observation, structured interviews, and quantitative analysis of production, financial, and participation data. The study is grounded in circular economy principles and institutional incentive design theory, emphasizing long-term value mechanisms as drivers of system stability and effectiveness. Findings: the integration of gold savings stabilizes community participation, improves the quality and availability of raw materials, enhances MSMEs financial resilience, and reduces environmental impact by diverting baby diaper waste from landfills into productive cycles. Reinforcing feedback loops between economic incentives, social engagement, and environmental outcomes strengthen system durability and scalability. The framework acts as a critical alignment mechanism that coordinates behavioral, operational, and value flows across the community-based industrial system. Conclusion: institutionally supported, value-stabilized mechanisms such as gold savings–based waste banks provide a replicable pathway for sustainable community-based circular economy initiatives. The study offers novel insights into the integration of financial innovation, waste utilization, and MSMEs empowerment, providing a practical model for replication in emerging economies. Novelty/Originality of this article: this study provides an empirically grounded, replicable, and context-sensitive framework linking financial instruments directly to environmental and social impact while enhancing MSMEs sustainability. Unlike previous research, it demonstrates how institutionally supported long-term value mechanisms can simultaneously stabilize community participation, support inclusive economic empowerment, and promote circular economy practices in emerging economies.
