55% of Jakarta's waste is organic material.

More than half of the waste produced in DKI Jakarta is organic material. The second most dominant component of waste production is various types of paper and plastic. In DKI Jakarta's newest waste management concept, this type of waste can be processed at the household or collector level before being disposed of at the Final Processing Site (TPA).

The DKI Jakarta Provincial Government plans to divide commercial zones for waste management. The local government also entrusted the management of waste in traditional markets to PD Pasar Jaya since April 1, 2014. This mechanism is expected to allow for better monitoring of independent waste management in 153 markets. The amount of waste from these markets reaches approximately 10,000 cubic meters per month.

According to the Jakarta Regional Environmental Management Agency (BPLHD) document, the DKI Jakarta Provincial Government has also prepared incinerators to facilitate independent management through waste banks. Since 2014, there have been approximately 120 waste banks registered in DKI Jakarta.
