Abstract
Coal fired power plant (CFPP) capacity in Indonesia continues to grow, that also increase the amount of fly ash and bottom ash (FABA) waste produced from the CFPP. The FABA waste can be used as a mixture of cement in infrastructure development. The management of FABA waste is currently 70% utilized by the cement industry for activities located outside the power plant region, so that additional transportation costs are needed for the management of the waste. How to systematically organize institutional infrastructure and physical infrastructure to sustain recycling mechanisms or waste management is the problem. This research has an objective to find out the aspect of waste management system that could increase the usage of FABA to support cost of raw material efficiency in infrastructures. The method to find this research objective is using the sequential mixed methods. A monitoring system for the establishment and utilization of FABA waste can be built to improve waste utilization, prevent environmental and cost impacts due to further waste travel, then build the ‘sound material cycle society’ to promote FABA as raw material.
