Waste Management.
Waste Shredding Machine Introduction Environmental pollution is increasingly rising due to various factors, including the growth of the human population, which impacts the increase in waste generation.
This situation is exacerbated by the limited availability of waste disposal facilities, low public awareness and willingness to manage and dispose of waste properly, and minimal understanding of the benefits of waste management.
Additionally, there is still a reluctance among the community to reuse waste, which is often seen as something unclean and needs to be discarded, or due to prestige considerations.
Inadequate waste management can contribute to environmental pollution, causing river sedimentation and potentially triggering floods.
According to Jambeck .
Indonesia ranks second globally after China in terms of plastic waste production in water bodies, with a total of 187.
2 million tons of waste.
This information aligns with data released by the Ministry of Environment and Forestry in 2016, revealing that plastic produced by 100 stores or members of the Indonesian Retailers Association (APRINDO) in one year 95 million plastic bags.
This result is equivalent to an area of 65.
7 hectares filled with plastic waste .
Based on 2021 data from Cibenda Village, the village is located in Parigi District.
Pangandaran Regency.
West Java Province, with a fairly strategic geographical condition.
The village covers an area 319 hectares and is inhabited by approximately 8,229 people divided into 3,028 households.

Waste management is a fundamental issue that demands serious attention, especially in communities experiencing rapid population growth and lifestyle changes .
Waste management in Cibenda Village faces increasingly complex challenges, even though the village already has a waste management system through processing facilities that apply the principles of reduction, reuse, and recycling.
However, its implementation is still inefficient and does not cover all aspects of ideal waste management.
The existing reduce, reuse, and recycle (TPS 3R) waste processing site currently only focuses on sorting and selling inorganic waste without further innovation.
This may be due to the limited equipment supporting waste management.
Moreover, kitchen or organic waste is not yet properly managed, and the method used to address this waste still relies on burning.
The TPS 3R in Cibenda Village faces various challenges affecting its sustainability.
Its location far from the main road and on the coast makes accessibility difficult, hampering the waste transportation process and increasing operational costs.
Additionally, the small semi-permanent TPS 3R building, measuring 4 x 6 meters, is inadequate to support effective waste management, particularly in sorting, processing, and Inorganic waste such as bottles, plastic bags, and cardboard, although separated for sale, is not further processed to increase its added value.
Meanwhile, other types of waste are not well managed and end up being burned.
Therefore, significant improvements are needed in terms of accessibility, infrastructure capacity, management methods, and regulatory compliance.
Collaboration between TPS 3R managers, the government, and the community is essential to create a more efficient waste management system, preserve environmental sustainability, and ensure positive impacts for the future.
This study aims to analyze the waste management situation in Cibenda Village, including infrastructure, operational systems, and community awareness regarding the importance of waste Additionally, it identifies various challenges faced, both from social, economic, and technical aspects, that hinder the effectiveness of waste management.
Based on the analysis, strategic recommendations are formulated to improve the management system, especially in the processing of organic and inorganic waste, to become more efficient and environmentally friendly.
Finally, community-based innovations are developed that can be applied to create sustainable waste management involving active community participation.
