Abstract
The objectives of this research are 1) to analyze the determinants of waste generation caused by population density, GRDP (Gross Regional Domestic Product) per capita, AMH (Literacy Rate) and regional dummy at the district/city level in Central Java; 2) analyze the influence of AMH and regional dummy on waste management efficiency in Central Java; 3) formulate a sustainable waste management strategy in Central Java. These three objectives are analyzed with different analytical tools. The General Method of Moment (GMM) analysis tool to analyze the first objective, Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) to analyze the second objective and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to analyze the third objective. The research results show 1) population density, GRDP per capita and area dummy significantly influence waste generation both partially and jointly, while the AMH variable is not significant; 2) AMH and area dummy significantly influence the transported waste; 3) waste recycling as a sustainable waste management strategy in Central Java. The estimation results of model one also show that the WKC (Waste Kuznets Curve) curve is shaped like an inverted U. The estimation results of model two also show that Pekalongan City achieved the highest technical efficiency achievement and Boyolali Regency was the region with the lowest technical efficiency achievement. Based on estimates from model one with GMM and model two with SFA, it shows that city areas generate less waste and are more efficient than districts.
