ABSTRACT
The ability of urban households in West Jakarta to engage in disposable diaper waste sorting is investigated in this paper. Disposable baby diaper waste sorting aims to provide a stable raw material for the recycling industry, reduce waste collection costs, reduce waste disposal costs and reduce the environmental impact of natural resource extraction. Empirical findings indicate that the separation of baby diaper waste at the household level is influenced by education, income, attitudes, perception of sorting waste sources and perceptions of behavior control. There are 93.54% of respondents willing to sort baby diaper waste by receiving an incentive of IDR 1,070.29 per kilogram of disposable baby diaper waste.
