JBM
Domestic waste produced by PT PLN Java Bali Madura Transmission Main Unit (UIT JBTB) mostly comes from daily operations and monitoring of operations on the project site, office areas, and facilities at GI/GIS.
Usually included in this category are solid trash from domestic waste, including food scraps, plastic packaging, paper, and bottles as well as other nonorganic waste that cannot break down, such plastic and metal.
Conversely, domestic liquid waste results from waste water from household activities like bathing as well as from waste water from office operations including sinks or other sites used for hand washing or toileting .
Domestic liquid waste comes in two varieties:
gray and black water.
Gray water is liquid waste from human activities not ending in the toilet.
Gray water results from light objects contaminating bathrooms containing less weight than toilet waste .
Meanwhile, black water is liquid waste that comes from toilets which contain high levels of contaminants .
The refuse generated from the cleaning of eating and drinking utensils, such as plates, glasses, spoons, and cooking tools, is commonly known as kitchen garbage .
Pantry wastewater typically contains organic components such as food scraps, oils, and beverage particles, along with soap, beverages, and oil.
Food fats, butter, and cooking oil can combine with wastewater to create an oil coating that is difficult for the environment to decompose .
2 Regulations Regarding Domestic Waste PP No.
22, 2021 requires every sector producing liquid wasteAiincluding household waste and manufacturingAito treat the waste before releasing it into water bodies.
The Republic of Indonesia's Minister of Environment Forestry Regulation 68/MenlhkSetjen/2016 on residential wastewater quality standards then provides direction for the quality criteria applied in household wastewater testing.
Maintaining water quality and environmental health depends on ensuring that domestic wastewater from running activities is disposed of in line with current laws.
