Abstract—Municipal waste management is still a significant
problem for solid waste issues in Indonesia. Only 60 to 70% of
the waste generated is disposed of in landfills, the rest is
dispersed in different areas. The potential for leachate pollution,
greenhouse gases, and a waste of non-renewable natural
resources can occur due to municipal waste management
problems not being optimal. Municipal waste management
needs a holistic concept that would include upstream to
downstream stages. This paper comprehensively reviews
municipal waste management with a zero waste concept based
on management, development, measuring, implementations,
strategies, potentials, and challenges in Indonesia. The zero
waste concept offers waste management, starting with waste
elimination, recycling, reduction, and recovery of used goods.
Several municipalities around the globe, such as Canberra,
Adelaide (Australia), Stockholm (Sweden), Nova-Scotia
(Canada), and San Francisco (United States), have decided on
targets for zero waste cities. Indonesia is still implementing
waste management that accentuates disposal in landfills, so
there needs to be a literature study related to the management,
development, measuring, implementations, strategies,
potentials, and challenges of Indonesia’s zero waste concept.
