Reduce Methane Hazards Through the Help of Organic Waste Crushing Machines

Chandra Asri Petrochemical Tbk contributed to providing organic chopping machines with a capacity of 100kg/hour to PT Putri Banten Progressive as Chandra Asri's canteen vendor partner to manage leftover food from the Ciwandan Site canteen. As a form of circular economy, the leftover food will be processed into maggot using the Black Soldier Fly (BSF) method, the results of which can be reused as animal feed. The handover of the organic chopping machine was carried out on 23 May 2022. In addition, the event was also followed by the signing of the Cooperation Agreement between Chandra Asri and Putri Banten. The provision of the organic waste shredder is a program from Chandra Asri to prevent organic waste from being dumped into the Bagendung landfill, in order to reduce CO² gas emissions from organic waste which can produce methane emissions that are much more dangerous than CO² gas.
