STRATEGI DAUR ULANG SAMPAH PLASTIK MENJADI PAVINGBLOK DENGAN TEKNOLOGI TEPAT GUNA: STUDI KASUS DI [DESA SUCI]

The problem of waste management in Terumbu Village, Suci Village, Kasemen District, has become a significant issue with the accumulation of untreated waste and an inadequate burning system. Lack of public awareness and education regarding the negative impacts of waste has the potential to cause various health problems. This research proposes an appropriate technological solution in the form of making paving blocks from plastic waste as a more effective and sustainable waste management alternative. This technology aims to convert plastic waste that has been piling up into paving blocks, which not only helps reduce the volume of waste but also improves the quality of local infrastructure. This study involves analysis of the manufacturing process, environmental benefits, and implementation of technology in Suci Village, with the hope that it can become a model for other areas with similar problems.
