| Summary: | A study has been conducted to determine the amount of recycle waste and the effective method of recycling management
at Faculty of Engineering, Universiti Pertahanan Nasional Malaysia (UPNM) using the recycling bins system to reduce
waste disposal at landfills. The primary data were collected through daily waste collection in Faculty of Engineering,
UPNM. Several recycle waste bins have been located at specific areas to ease student and staff the throw the recycle
waste. The result showed that the recycling bin system successfully recovered recycle waste item by 3 000 to 5 000 gram.
Thus, it is believing that the implementation of waste separation at source can improve the current waste management
system in UPNM and helps to support the sustainability and green campus environment campaign. |
