Abstract

Abstract: Urban waste is threatening the natural environment and sustainability of Bogor City, West Java Province, Indonesia. To overcome this issue, the government have tried several short-term approaches and implemented several long-term policies as a countermeasure. However, the large amount of daily waste and its unpredictable pattern have made trash management difficult. As a continuation in terms of looking further for sustainable solutions to this problem, this study aimed to establish its dynamic model, which is expressed as a system approach study of the interrelations among the related elements. The study method used consisted of a simulation model using a dynamic system. The system model was created with the help of the Powersim Studio 10 Express software. Causal Loops Diagram and Stock-Flow Diagram are used to study the system. A cause circumference diagram is created by determining the significant variables in the system and connecting them depending on the interaction. The simulation result can be seen as table and line graph. A validation system needs to be done on the system model. This research is expected to be useful for various parties related to urban waste management.
