โป๏ธ Waste Management System
As part of our commitment to responsible and sustainable environmental management, Pupuk Kaltim implements a comprehensive Waste Management System that covers the management of Hazardous and Toxic Waste (B3), Non-B3 Waste, and General Waste.
All management activities are carried out in an integrated manner with the principles of reduce, reuse, recycle (3R), implementation of circular economy, and compliance with applicable regulations, in order to minimize environmental impact and support the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
โ ๏ธ Hazardous and Toxic Waste (B3)
Pupuk Kaltim recognizes that industrial activities have the potential to generate hazardous and toxic waste (B3) that requires special handling to prevent risks to the environment and occupational health.
As a form of environmental responsibility, the company implements the B3 Waste Reduction and Utilization Policy to ensure that all management processes are carried out safely, responsibly, and in accordance with applicable legal provisions.
Target for B3 Waste Reduction
B3 Waste Generation Target 2024
Through this policy, Pupuk Kaltim targets a 7% reduction and utilization of B3 waste over a five-year period. In 2024, the target for B3 waste generation is no more than 33,319.96 metric tons. This target serves as the foundation for the company's commitment to continuously minimize waste generation and expand B3 waste utilization through the consistent implementation of 3R principles (reduce, reuse, recycle) across all operational lines.
๐ Non-B3 Waste
As part of our sustainable environmental management strategy, Pupuk Kaltim has also established a Reduce, Reuse, Recycle (3R) Policy for Non-B3 Waste.
The company focuses on reducing the generation of non-B3 solid waste, including registered waste such as fly ash and bottom ash (FABA), by prioritizing a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach and supporting the achievement of SDGs.
Non-B3 Registered Waste Utilization Target
Optimization of FABA utilization as substitute materials or valuable construction materials
Through this policy, the company targets 50% utilization of registered Non-B3 waste over a five-year period. These efforts are carried out through the optimization of FABA utilization as substitute materials or valuable construction materials. The utilization percentage compared to total generation serves as the main indicator of the successful implementation of 3R principles in significantly reducing environmental impact.
๐๏ธ Waste Management
As a continuation of our environmental commitment, Pupuk Kaltim implements a Waste Management Policy to reduce generation while improving the effectiveness of waste management across all operational areas.
This policy integrates management innovation, implementation of circular economy principles, and the concept of Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) to create added value from operational waste materials.
Waste Reduction Target
Waste Generation Target 2024
Pupuk Kaltim targets a 3% reduction in waste generation over a five-year period. As a reference for achievement, for waste generation in 2024, the target for waste generated is no more than 1,407.40 metric tons, which serves as the basis for evaluating program effectiveness in subsequent years. Through source separation strategies, increased recycling, and innovation-based management, Pupuk Kaltim continues to strengthen its contribution to the implementation of sustainable environmental policies and the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
๐ Circular Economy
Pupuk Kaltim integrates circular economy principles into its waste management system to create closed loops that optimize resource utilization and minimize waste. This approach not only reduces environmental impact but also creates economic value from materials previously considered as waste.
Through the implementation of the Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) concept, the company takes full responsibility for the product life cycle, from design to end-of-life management, thereby encouraging innovation in the development of more environmentally friendly and sustainable products.
๐ฏ Contribution to SDGs
Through the implementation of a comprehensive and sustainable waste management system, Pupuk Kaltim contributes directly to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly in aspects of responsible production and consumption, environmental protection, and sustainable infrastructure development. Every waste management effort is designed to support the global vision of sustainable development while maintaining operational efficiency and company competitiveness.
๐งช Pollutant
COD Pollutant
As a manifestation of commitment to sustainable environmental management and compliance with wastewater quality standards in accordance with applicable regulations, Pupuk Kaltim consistently monitors and manages Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) across all its operational facilities. The COD parameter serves as one of the main indicators in assessing the levels of organic compounds in wastewater, reflecting the effectiveness of liquid waste management from production processes and company utilities.
| Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unit (Ton) | 268,198.22 | 129,793.63 | 140,201.23 | 274,265 |
| Coverage (percent) | 100 | 100 | 100 | 100 |
