ABSTRACT
Transitioning to a circular economy as an option of mitigating environmental challenges posed by traditional linear consumption patterns has garnered considerable attention. This study examines innovative approaches to circular economy principles in the context of Salatiga's domestic waste management. The aim is to conduct a thorough evaluation of various waste management technologies and their potential to contribute to a more sustainable and circular waste management system. The research utilizes a review-based technique, drawing insights from current academic literature, papers, and case studies relevant to circular economy practices and household waste management technologies. To find new methods that have been successfully implemented in a variety of cities, a comprehensive literature search is performed. This research attempts to give a thorough evaluation of these methods' relevance to the Salatiga environment by assessing their accomplishments, obstacles, and outcomes. This research showed that several waste management techniques, such as landfilling, incineration, and minimal recycling, are used in Salatiga. The research uncovered a number of novel methods for enacting a circular economy, including community-based recycling programs, waste-to-energy conversion, and expanded producer responsibility efforts. Few people are aware of the issue, there isn't enough support system in place, and resources are restricted.
