Quick Summaries
  • ITDC is expanding its TPS3R facility in Nusa Dua from 2,500 to 5,000 square meters to improve on-site waste processing.
  • The company plans to consolidate tenant waste management by 2026 while still allowing licensed third-party operators to remain involved.
  • ITDC is also scaling water resilience through SWRO technology, producing 331,000 cubic meters of clean water in the past three months.

State-owned tourism developer PT Pengembangan Pariwisata Indonesia (Indonesia Tourism Development Corporation/ITDC) is expanding its reduce-reuse-recycle (TPS3R) waste processing facility in Nusa Dua, Badung regency, Bali.

“We are increasing the land area from around 2,500 square meters to 5,000 square meters,” said I Made Agus Dwiatmika, general manager of ITDC The Nusa Dua, on Friday.

He said the expansion of the TPS3R facility will use available land in the Lagoon area of Nusa Dua.

The facility currently processes waste generated within ITDC operations, estimated at 35 tons per day, with around 70 percent consisting of organic waste.

Meanwhile, some waste from hotels and restaurants in the premium tourism area is already managed independently by the businesses.

In addition to handling waste in-house, the businesses also partner with third parties that hold the required business permits.

With the expanded facility, ITDC plans to invite interested hotels and restaurants to manage their waste jointly through the on-site system.

However, he said the company would not automatically terminate existing third-party arrangements with hotels and restaurants, citing the need to maintain economic activity.

“In 2026, our target is to manage tenant waste—hotels and restaurants—together within the area, but we will not automatically cut off third parties as long as they have government permits,” he said.

The expansion is expected to reduce the amount of waste that ends up at the Suwung landfill in Denpasar, which is currently operating beyond capacity.

The move is also expected to serve as a sustainable innovation to help protect the environment across the 350-hectare managed area.

Previously, ITDC also began processing seawater into clean water to reduce dependence on groundwater.

Over the past three months, the company has produced 331,000 cubic meters of clean water using Sea Water Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) technology.

The technology can produce up to 1.31 million cubic meters of clean water per year.
