SDGs Center UNAIR - As a form of the University's commitment to reducing the waste problem. Universitas Airlangga measures the amount of waste generated in the university environment. Around 600kg of garbage is collected per day. The waste is a combination of organic and inorganic waste. If it is accumulated annually, Universitas Airlangga produces 144 tons of waste. Around 72 tons of waste is inorganic waste which disposed on landfill. While the rest, which is organic waste, will be recycled.

In order to process organic waste, Universitas Airlangga built a compost house in 2018. The recycled waste in this compost house is organic waste. The majority of this organic waste is leaf waste. Airlangga University annually recycles 28.8 tons of leaf waste. Leaf waste that has been recycled will later become compost, which is used for fertilizing plants in the university environment.
