Abstract
The increasing arisings of municipal solid wastes constitute a serious environmental problem for the developing countries. Urbanisation has magnified the need for adequate solid waste disposal. This article examines the present situation of solid waste management in Indonesia in general and Jakarta in particular. The available disposal methods are presented and analysed, while possible options to improve the overall management of wastes are discussed on the basis of the available technologies. These are evaluated in terms of compatibility with the wastes produced in Indonesia.
