Abstract
Land limitation for storaging final disposal waste, conventional waste processing unit, and rapid gowth
of human population resulting more incoming volume of disposal waste become a major reason that
causing problem at waste management handling. Composting house is one of the waste processing unitthat had been established to solve the waste problem. One of the composting house in Surabaya is
composting house Rungkut Bratang that have processed most of organic waste in Surabaya especially
for leaves waste and rind. In Composting House Rungkut Bratang, compostition of municipal waste
which involved in composting process reach 66% from total amount municipal solid. Total amount
compost produced in once process is 9 m3
in one day. This research was done because not all
composting house could be survival. So this research is a study case of key aspect that influencing the
success and failure factor of Composting house Rungkut Bratang, consists of not only good technicalaspect in handling waste, but also non-technical aspect such as legality, policy, rules, subsidy, and good
planning. According to the technical and non technical analysist, this composting house could be
identified as survival composting house in Surabaya.
Keyword: waste management handling, Rungkut Bratang composting house, Key aspect of Composting
House, survival.
Introduction
Basically, waste is one of disposal substance which produce no profit, wasteful, and
moreover causing negative impact to economic value. This condition is based on the factthat to handle it, the stakeholder need to expense high cost. But this paradigm which
thought that waste is something useless must be deleted from our mind. In order to make
wastebecome something useful and doesnt caused disaster, we must make a concept how
to manage them. This system must be effective and using eco safety life style.
According to UU 18/2008, The Government of Surabaya could regulate a district
regulation which can support the implementation in managing waste, from the resource of
waste until final disposal. With this new regulation, final disposal doesnt have acronym as
final throwing place, but must become the place to manage waste. Before carrying waste to
final disposal, this waste must be disaggregated. When the waste arrived in final disposal,
waste still have to be separated until all waste reduced down to minimal volume. Referredto UU 18/2008 about waste management which applied in Surabaya, mindset of final
disposal in Surabaya would be totally changed from old paradigm about collect-carry-
throw into new 3R principal. 3R means reduce, reuse and recycle. The important substance
of UU 18/2008 is to making the change of the waste exile system into waste management
system by the Government. One of the simple waste management is composting.
Composting is a process which converted the municipal solid organic material to become
stabil product under environmental controlled. In composting process, there will be
biology activity which be done by microorganism. This activity included decomposting of
cellulose, hemicelluloses, fatty, wax and others to become carbon dioxide (CO2) and water
(Mekel, 1981). In this composting process, the ratio of C and N is an important rule
because microorganisms need nitrogen to synthesis protein and carbon for their growth.
The optimum ratio C/N for effective and efficient composting process is between 26 and
mailto:[email protected]:[email protected] -
7/30/2019 Paper House of Composting Rungkut Bratang-edit Trans
2/22
35. If the ratio under 26, it caused nitrogen loss which producing ammonia gas but if the
ratio more 35, it will cause the composting process spent long time (Poincelot, 1972).
The natural composting process will spend more time, but this process could be speed up
by adding microorganism such as EM4 (Effective Microorganism 4), which is the
combination of beneficial microorganisms especially photosynthesis bacterial, lactate acid
bacterial, yeast, actinomycetes and fermentation fungus which can be used as inoculantsfor increasing amount of beneficial microorganisms in soil. (APNAN, 1995). In
composting process, EM4 actively fermented organic material that will produce bioactive
compost or compost which produced by lignoselulolitic microba which could survive in
compost and has a role as biological agent to controll cultivation disease when this
compost placed in soil.
According to above explanation, in order to stabilize this composting process, it is essential
to analyze several aspects that influenced. Because the successful and failure aspect at the
composting process not only caused by biological process, but also several non technical
aspects such as policy, legality, subsidy, rules and planning aspect. Then, this research
will analyze the key aspect that influence the success or failure factor of compostingactivity in House Rungkut Bratang Surabaya.
Methodology
The research procedures which applied in the analysis study of success and failure factor in
Composting house Bratang Surabaya can be explained as belows:
a). The systhematic research is applied to compile fact in various composting area locatedin surrounding East Java such as Surabaya, Sidoarjo and Desa Mulyo Agung Malang.
This research begins from investigation of how the composting centre was established.
Several aspects which have been considered as main point to support the sustainabilityof composting center are:
Techincal aspect Non technical aspect such as :
o Policyo Subsidyo Legallityo Ruleso Planning
Based on the analysist of those important aspects, the composting centre could be
catagorized as survival or development unit.
b). Research including secunder data study and primary data observation. Secunder datastudy involving : literature study (international publication), regulation study,
laboratorium analysist study. Primary data observation including : observation and
interview with composting organizer and officer.
Discussion
Research AreaThis interview was done in House Rungkut Bratang Surabaya. This location was chosen
based on the fact that this House is organized by Government, especially Dinas Kebersihan
dan Pertamanan (DKP) Surabaya. Compost which is produced from this House RungkutBratang Surabaya is used for public garden in Surabaya. This House is not the same as like
other which using business oriented.

Description about Composting House of Rungkut Bratang
House Rungkut Bratang Surabaya is one of the composting house organized by Surabaya
Office of Landscaping and Groundskeeping (DKP Surabaya) established since 1996. This
composting house has two zones, the selection zone (to separate leaf and twig) and thecomposting zone (started from crushing process until producing desired compost).
According to data from DKP and Government of Surabaya, there are 16 composting house
which processing town solid waste to produce compost, one of them is composting house
located in Rungkut Bratang near from final waste disposal Bratang (TPS Bratang).

The reason why this composting house established is as one of the project of PLP (Healthof Environmental Settlement) which goals are going to reduce municipal solid waste
volume, reduce environmental pollution and regenerate public garden in Surabaya. Not
only that, because of difficulties in finding land space for storaging final disposal, The
Government of Surabaya established this centre of municipal solid waste processing which
produced compost product. This house is organized by Surabaya Office of Landscaping
and Groundskeeping (DKP) and Government in order to make urban community has a role
as executor of this policy.
Basically, this composting house has the goal as a sample model for East Indonesian, then
widely spread to all region of Indoesia to trigged them to make typical composting house.
Before this composting house established, DKP has conducted training which held in
Wiyung Sidoarjo. The land of this composting house was given by DKP. DKP choosed
this location as composting house because Rungkut is located in the industry area. This
industry area need such a public garden like this composting house to anticipate air
pollution caused by industrial activity.
Technical Aspect Analysist
Physical Process
Selection ProcessAt the begining, the compostition of municipal solid waste sourced from urban communitycontain 60% material organic waste and 40% material anorganic waste. But, sooner
material organic waste was decreased and finally caused the composting process become
longer. So that as one of the solution for this problem, waste incoming system to become
compost will be changed. Finally, municipal solid waste which are permitted to involve theprocess composting are waste from cutting tree, waste from street litterand waste from jam
factory which produced rind. The transportation process divided into : waste from cutting
tree are carried by DKP truck and from street litter is distributed directly to composting
house Bratang.
In this process, there is no significant selection process, just choosed by group of their
material such as paper, plastic and bottle waste, organic waste and recidual waste. Paper,
plastic, bottle waste will be sold and then recycled to make handicraft. Recidual waste will
be distributed to final disposal process at Bratang. Compostition of municipal waste which
involved in composting process reach 66% from total amount municipal solid. In fact, this

separated process is done manually in location composting house and doesnt use modern
technology such as conveyer belt. But this process is categorized as efficient process and
could minimized mixing waste. The classification of municipal solid waste which could be
involved in composting process are leaf waste and rind from jam factory, while big and
small branches will be sold to be used as fuel or fire wood.
The classification of municipal solid waste in Composting house Rungkut Bratang :

Figure 8. Wrapping plastic and tetrapack waste
Crushing ProcessBesides separated process, there is crushing process which use crusher with power source
from solar. There is no specified sizing required from this process. The goal from this
process is reducing size of the municipal solid waste, because if municipal solid waste
become smaller, the surface contact between bacterial and material organic become bigger
so the decompostition process will become faster.
But if the diameter of material from crushing process is too small, the condition will be
changed to become anaerob condition due to smaller aerial space. The best diameter is
between 25 and 75 mm. When mixing process happened, there is also biology process, but
in this process there is not additional bacteria included such as EM4. There is just pouring
the mixed material by leachate in order to growth bacterial manually. Bacterial which
produced by that leachate is kind of mesophilia and thermophilia bacterial. Then this
bacterial decomposte material organic from organic waste stack which will become
compost.

Figure 10. The mixing process which happened after pouring with leachate water
Cumul ation ProcessThe next process is cumulation. This process spends time about 2 until 3 days which gets
treatment by decomposted and reversed it once with stack height 1,5 m, stack length 2 m
and stack width 1,75 m. In this process, we need reversal in order to get oxygen and reduce
stink. Reversal process is done by using wooden stick orhoe. During the cumulation process, there is moisture controlled process which is done by
sprinkling. There is no specified frequency to control moisture content. But, if the
temperature controll over 600C, it means the stack is lack of moisture content so the
sprinkling process must be done. Temperature above 600C is not allowed. This controll is
done intensively during first week. After several weeks later, the stack temperature will be
stable.

ScreeningAfter compost is ready, the next process is screening. Screening is just done by order.
Screening process is not required in compost product for public garden. Compost product
is carried by DKP truck to the public garden in Surabaya. Ibu PKK is one of the
consument which order screened compost. Actually, there is an influence of this screening
process to the solubility of the compost. Because if the compost is screened, the
compostition of compost will faster to soluble in soil. But, because of space land and timelimitation, the compost product is directly carried out by DKP truck to the public garden.
This is quick process also essential for preventing compost stack mounting in composting
house.
Picture 14. Compost stack and screening mesin
StoragingIn this composting house Rungkut Bratang there is no specific place for storaging because
after the compost is ready, it will directly carry-out by DKP truck to distribute in public
garden. Total amount compost produced in once process is 9 m3 in one day. So if we
calculate the time, we need 20 days start from cumulation process until get compost
product (with reversal process done oftenly). But if reversal process is done only in 2-3
days, the composting process will spent time more than 20 days

One of the samples of compost utilization is located in public garden behind of composting
house. Commonly, the ratio compost and soil in wet soil or clay is 1:1, but for dry soil the
ratio is 1:4.

Applied Technology
The technology is used in the composting process at Rungkut Bratang composting house is
using simple machines, as in the process of transporting used trucks of DKP.
Specifications of the truck in general are large, as shown below:
Figure 19. Cutting of Trees Trucks Transporting
In addition to the transport process, it takes the machine for crushing the garbage. The
specifications of this Chrusher have knives in general and get power from diesel fuel.
Diameter resulting from the enumeration process which ranges from 25-75 mm.

Besides the enumeration process, the machine also needed to filter or screening machines.
The machine is still running well, because it is not operational everyday. Screening
machine is used when the demand. Compost of public garden does not need screening
process.
Figure 22. Screening Machine
There is no special treatment for operation and maintenance of the machines, just
preventing damage to these machines in accordance with the operational capacity of its
work. According to Mr. Toha the Coordinator Field House compost, if the machine is
damaged, there are technician who came to fix the machines. For every operational
procedure, introduced a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) by the city government.
Identify The Type of Composting
Composting is a process of decomposition organic material solid waste (garbage)
biologically, under control conditions of the process. Compost incorrect when called asfertilizer, although also known as organic fertilizer, because it contains nutrients will
depending on the characteristics of the raw material. Therefore municipal solid waste is
very heterogeneous characteristics and fluctuation then the quality will follow the
characteristics of the waste used as compost any time. (Damanhuri and Padmi, 2010)
Analysis of composting in the Composting house of Rungkut Bratang based on the
availability of oxygen is said that in the aerobic composting process using oxygen (air). If
based on the temperature, the type of thermophilic composting occurs at temperatures
above 40oC are ongoing. While based on the technology used is happening at home
composting composting is traditional (natural) that is by stacking and biological processes
that occur aided by the activity of microorganisms generated from waste leachate.
According to informants, the reason for the compost is likely to choose the type of aerobic
composting because it does not cause odors and disturbing residents, composting times
faster and affordable, high-temperature manufacturing process to generate steam that can
kill pathogenic bacteria so that the compost produced more hygienic.
Based on the literature, the characteristic of aerobic composting is not cause odor. Thereaction is exothermic formation of compost, need outside energy, heat is generated. The
final product is produced in the form of humus, and gases such as CO2 and H2O. Reduction
of waste volume can reach over 50% by the duration the composting process reaches 20-30days. The main purpose of aerobic composting is a volume reduction of waste. While the
side objective is the production of compost

Compost QualityThe final result shaped of bulk compost quality. Good compost color is blackish brown,
yellowish whereas if compost means that conditions are not ideal. The picture of an ideal
compost as below:
Figure 23. Compost Sample Color is Blackish-Brown
Besides in terms of physical, laboratory tests should be done about the quality of the
compost, because the compost quality testing can determine the success of the compost
market. Although the Bratang Composting house is not based on the business, but still it is
necessary to test the quality. The quality testing may include nutrients test contained in the
fertilizer and the content of the elements and heavy metals. Compost quality standard
refers to the standard of laboratory test results. The resulting compost qualities standards
are eligible and have examined include heavy metals Pb, Cd, Ni, Cr, Zn, Cu. As for testing
the quality of compost is sourced from ITS Environmental Engineering and the Directorate
General of PPM and PLP. The sampling period with an old one-time research done during
one month. Following the Data of compost laboratory testing analysis of elements and

Operation and Management
The solid waste which is distribute to composting house is 10 m3 and will be produce as
compost is 9 m3/day. The amount of labor needed everyday is 8 people and they include
permanent workforce, contracts, and daily. They are the residents who live around the
home composting. Workforce management system is to apply compost at home every a
month there are 3 days off, time off was released to the workforce. The division of labor is
the process compost 4-5 people, 3 people in charge of picking and choosing the solidwaste.
To support the health and safety of workers, this composting house applied the SMK3 that
one application form SMK3 is given PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) for workers.
Unfortunately, the use of PPE is less realized because the labor is uncomfortable using the
PPE. The labour starts work at 07.00 until 16.00, with a one-hour rest period, bringing the
total active working duration is 8 hours. This is in accordance with the maximum capacity
of the working hours is 8 hours. Obligation to work 8 hours a day would be comparable to
his salary is above the regional minimum wage of Surabaya
Composting house is a form of cooperation with the local government that forms ofcooperation in land, construction, equipment to budget for the purposes of home

cooperation between the government and governmental organizations. All affairs related to
the management of home compost is under the management of the government, but society
is to be the executor.
The success of a compostimg house was never apart of the problem. An institution can be a
success when the institution can resolve the issue at hand. This applied also by Bratang
composting house which be a part of solving this problem, the number of members 2people in charge of handling the problem of damaged equipment. Besides producing
compost, this composting house is also often a means of education for the students and
even college students. This composting house is often visited by schools, universities or
institutions, because there is a demonstration biogas system, compost solid, liquid compost
and utilization of inorganic waste such as bottles that decorated a flower pot hanging.
The Key to Success Affecting Compost Quality
At this time, the selected waste system in this composting house is stable by focusing on
homogeneous waste so that it can support the success of the process of composting.
Homogeneity of the sorting process carried out on different types, though there is nospecial system that supplies fixed amount of waste entering accordance with the process of
compost production targeted. All organic waste that directly processed and made into
compost. Standard waste for composting material is a homogeneous organic wastes in
particular simply leaves. The things that usually affect the quality of compost produced is
as follows :
1. Raw materials are composted2. Reversal process (including oxygen)3. Watering leachate4. Temperature5. The water content
Based on the description above, the composted material could determine the success of the
composting process. Materials Composting: is it easy decompose or difficult to
biodegradable, such as the more wood content or lignin-containing material, it will be
more difficult to biodegradable. In addition to raw materials, the key to success lies also in
the process of composting. The process of reversal is one of the types of processes that can
determine the quantity of oxygen available. In aerobic processes have always required the
presence of oxygen. In the conventional process, the supply of oxygen carried by the
reversal of a pile of garbage. Reversal causes the distribution of litter and microorganisms
will be more evenly distributed. In traditional composting, oxygen availability will be
influenced stack height. Good stack height is 1.25 - 2 m.
The next process is provision of leachate, its seems like watering leachate. Watering is
intended as an activator of the microorganisms. Biological processes not be separated from
the activities of microorganisms. Of course, the role of microorganisms in the composting
process are bacteria, yeast, fungi according to the material to be described will be able to
decipher organic material, not pathogenic microorganisms. To maintain the quality of
compost, the water content should always be considered. According to the literature, the
compost pile should always be moist, usually around 50-60% value. (Damanhuri and
Padmi, 2010).
If low humidity can cause the water to evaporate, so the pile is dry. But when it is too wet,the pores pile will fill with water, and oxygen is reduced so that the process turned out to
be anaerobic. Stockpiles will smoke when the heat began to appear. At that time the center
-
7/30/2019 Paper House of Composting Rungkut Bratang-edit Trans
19/22
of the stack can be dry, and the decay process can be interrupted. Humidity factor is never
apart from temperature, to the temperature must be maintained to keep it under the state
reaches 60-65 Cwater levels (humidity) 50% so that the bacteria formed manually. Heat
formed in addition to killing pathogens also assist in the repair and drying slowly
(Damanhuri and Padmi, 2010). But according to resource the most important of a process
of composting is to do everything according to procedure, does not accumulate of residues,
and reducing fly so as not to cause odor.

Analysis of Non-Technical Aspects
Rungkut Bratang composting house is one composting house managed by the City directly.
The establishment of the compost is of course already received official approval from both
the City and the people. The agreement of all parties will realize synergies and efforts to
support each other. This condition is quite affecting sustainability activities in the
composting house, primarily for financial affairs. As a project management bygovernment, of the operating cost of sustainability has been budgeted composting activities
planned and subsidized by the government. As a government project management, of the
operating cost of sustainability of composting activity has been planned and budgeted
subsidized by the government. Although the realization of the government's financial
problems the city is not always run smoothly, because government-subsidized funds are
limited, while operating costs were not a little because there are unexpected planned things
happen as real damage on the machines that are used for composting.
As with ownership by private parties. The private sector tends to be more prompt in
addressing the garbage problem directly. The involvement of the private sector in waste
management would be more credible will be able to create efficient than government
because the private sector over using the business reference in the management and can
focus on the completion of the poor performance and low productivity. Technically, the
private sector is more responsive in addressing the problem because they tend to be
business oriented. While composting house is managed by the government, not business
oriented, because the main target of the composting activity here is to reduce urban waste
and green garden city, Surabaya
In addition to the business regardless of the orientation, the ownership of the government
was more concentrated on the issue of bureaucracy, rules and policy. With the Law
18/2008, Surabaya City Government can design local regulations to support theimplementation of waste management, from the source of the waste to at the landfill and
then processed again to be a product, one of which is composting house. City Government
-
7/30/2019 Paper House of Composting Rungkut Bratang-edit Trans
20/22
and DKP as the manager has the aspect of rules as a reference for the activities in the home
composting is still running accordance with Standard Operating Procedure (SOP). This is
to support the process of composting at composting house can be run regularly.
For the success and existence of composting house, it is necessary to aspects of planning.
As for long-term planning that is being designed by the Surabaya city government is
utilizing gas generated from the composting process so that composting house canimplement zero waste system.
Marketing and Analysis of Costs and Benefits
Composting Product resulting from Bratang composting house is not marketed to business
goals but earmarked for city parks ordered by DKP or incidental ordered by Mrs. PKK
(though not the consumer anyway) as the surrounding communities of home composting
Bratang. When viewed from the development goals composting house is not business
oriented so there is no profit-taking. Besides discussing the benefits, did not escape
discussion about the costs required to initiate this Bratang home composting. But
unfortunately written report can not be given because of all the inputs and outputs financesuch as costs the income and expenditure is managed by the City Government.
Other Environmental Social Benefit and Green House Gas Reduction Potential
Composting process has been done in the home compost produced any leachate from the
waste. Leachate is indeed the cause of the smell that pollutes the environment nearby area
composting. But there is a way that can be done to control the smell, flies and maggots, by
way of flow of leachate into the leachate shelter through existing channels in any compost
pile. This leachate will be collected and used as an activator for the biological processes
that occur during the composting process
Regardless of leachate generated from the waste, from the process of composting activity
is generated ammonia gas which can potentially lead to the greenhouse gas effect. So far
there has been no direct handling of the gases that are produced. However, composting
house is proposing planning to utilize the gas produced from the composting process.
The perceived benefits in terms of environmental and social besides reducing the volume
of waste, are:
1. Utilizing the results of logging2. Support the greening of the city of Surabaya3. Extending the life of TPA because reducing the amount of waste that goes to TPA
While the environmental and social impacts caused by composting process is environment
