Black Soldier Flies (BSF) is a type of fly that is larger than ordinary flies and is famous for its ability to consume and reduce organic waste, especially kitchen organic waste (KOW). KOW processing using BSF will be carried out in Kecamatan Cibiru, Bandung City, so the characteristics of KOW produced by the community need to be analyzed. The number of samples is calculated based on SNI M 36-1991 on Method of Taking and Measuring Example of Formation and Composition of Municipal Waste, obtained 63 households, which are then divided into 3 income groups. Results show the average KOW generation in populations with high, medium and low incomes are 0.223, 0.153, and 0.103 kg/person/day, respectively. Based on the speed of consuming KOW by BSF where the composition of KOW is divided into 3 categories, the results are obtained that 47% KOW is consumed quickly, 29% KOW is consumed slowly, and 24% KOW is not consumed. It was also found that the high income population turned out to contribute the highest fast eaten KOW compared to the middle and low income population. This turned out to be influenced by cooking patterns and patterns of handling leftovers.
Batununggal Indah housing still faces obstacles in waste management due to the low awareness of the community to separate and sort waste. Therefore, this area is the target of implementing waste management assistance carried out by the Bandung City Environment and Sanitation Service (DLHK) in collaboration with the City Government of Kawasaki, Japan. This study aims to evaluate the implementation of the waste management program in Permai and Jelita Clusters by identifying activities, changing community behavior and calculating changes in the amount of waste that is disposed of at the final disposal site. The evaluation results show that the main activity that has been carried out is a social approach in the form of workshops and counseling. Measurement of waste generation shows a decrease in the weight of generated waste that is disposed of at the final disposal site, indicating that waste separation has been practiced. This decrease is still insignificant because the community has not consistently carried out sorting behavior, so it needs sustainable encouragement.
