Although the conventional approach in dealing with the problem has been applied in most developing countries, it has been found inappropriate to manage this complicated problem. Recently, an integrated approach was proposed and has been used for managing the problem. Bandung city is one of the big cities in Indonesia and has such waste problems, which are caused by the increase of waste generation, there being no additional landfill sites for disposing of waste, the low priority on solid waste disposal and lack of stakeholders’ awareness. This research aims to propose a simulation model, which is expected to help decision makers (DMs) to plan policies regarding waste management in Bandung city. “Back-casting analysis” and “System Dynamics” are used for taking the integrated approach to create a long-term “Bandung Integrated Municipal Solid Waste Management Plan”. The results suggested that waste generation in Bandung city would increase during 2010 and 2035 with the increase of population and economic growth. Several waste treatment facilities would be needed to reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill. © 2013 WIT Press.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Back-casting,Bandung,Integrated municipal solid waste management,Planning,System dynamics[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text][/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.2495/SC130982[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
