Organic Waste Processing Plan at Rengasdengklok Market, Karawang: From Waste to Organic Fertilizer

Karawang, November 21, 2025 – CEHP Chairman, Achmad Syafiuddin, along with his partner, Mrs. Vickie, visited the waste disposal site at Rengasdengklok Market, Karawang. During the visit, they discovered a worrying situation with vast piles of poorly managed garbage. The waste was dominated by organic waste such as rotting vegetables, fish and chicken offal that was disposed of carelessly, resulting in a very pungent odor and adversely impacting the surrounding environment and the health of the community around the market.

 

After conducting a comprehensive survey and analysis of existing environmental issues, the CEHP team and partners formulated an innovative organic waste management plan. The plan will utilize environmentally friendly, smokeless incinerator technology, reducing air pollution emissions and addressing the unpleasant odors that have long been a resident complaint. This technology enables effective organic waste incineration without releasing harmful gases into the air, thus preserving the quality of the surrounding environment.

 

Furthermore, the residue from burning organic waste will be in liquid form and can be used as organic fertilizer for plants. This innovation is expected to provide a dual solution: cleaner waste management and supporting local agriculture with environmentally friendly organic fertilizer. This program is expected to maintain cleanliness at Rengasdengklok Market, positively impacting public health, and raising awareness of the importance of proper waste management in the Karawang area.
