Abstract

The numbers of waste are steadily increasing due to the increase in population and consumption. However, the management of waste is not effective and efficient which result in environmental, social and health problem. The waste bank, goverment program to lessen that waste issue, offers a solution that gives benefit not only for environment cleaness but also economically profitable. The enforcement of waste bank program is not reaching the society extensively leaving the program with less waste resource and become unprofitable. This study aims to determine optimization of waste bank of Sicanang to maximize profit with linear programming method. . Waste Bank of Sicanang is the only minucipal main waste bank in Medan that involves community in waste management while reducing the amount of waste disposed to landfill. Waste management with waste bank needs to be improved, by optimizing the waste management capacity in this place, so that the profit earned becomes maximal. The result showed the maximum profit that can obtained by Sicanang waste bank per month reached Rp. 5.396.162 per month with garbage uptake efficiency reaches 0,52% waste capacity of Medan City per day. This study found the potential increase the percentage of recycling waste by 11,02% and the profit earned reached Rp. 113.319.408 per month by recycle the garbage up to 10 tons per day if Medan build 1 unit of waste bank center at each district.
