The Effectiveness of Incinerator at the Integrated Waste Treatment Plant in the Campus of Engineering Faculty - Hasanuddin University

Waste is an endless environmental problem. The amount of waste production has increased due to the increasing population. Besides being produced in a city, waste generation is also produced by universities or campuses. One of them is the Gowa campus, the campus of Faculty of Engineering, Hasanuddin University. Current waste management is carried out by holding, collecting and burning in open areas without further management. It can cause environmental pollution and health problems. The objectives of this study were to determine the amount of campus waste generation, to analyze the needs of incinerators in campus, to determine incinerator tools, and to determine the advantages, disadvantages, efficiency and effectiveness of the incinerators in Gowa Campus. The results showed that the amount of waste generated at the Gowa campus was 0.25 liters/person/day and 0.12 kg/person/day. This incinerator requirements analysis uses the geometry method and the efficiency and effectiveness method. From the calculation, it is known that the use of incinerators for the next ten years is one unit. The disadvantage of using an incinerator is that the cost is very high. However, the advantage is that it can reduce waste generation and overcome environmental and health problems. The comparison between Double Chamber and Maxpell incinerator gave the results that the most effective and efficient is the Maxpell incinerator with an effectiveness of 97.5% and efficiency of 17.17%.
