Research This research focuses on analyzing the design of trash bins made from plastic water bottles using minimal materials, with potential for further development. Currently, a significant number of unused plastic water bottles exist, and this project aims to repurpose them into trash bins. This approach, in line with the economic and environmental need for waste reduction, seeks to contribute to a cleaner environment. The Quality Function Deployment for Energy (QFDE) method is applied to identify user requirements and guide the design of trash bins made from plastic bottles. This research incorporates the Four-Phases Model of QFDE, combined with the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to analyze each step in the design process. The implementation begins with evaluating user requirements, targeting two main groups for satisfaction assessment: users and students involved in design and development.
22 The satisfaction evaluation is categorized by general functionality, energy efficiency, environmental impact, and economic considerations. The user requirements are compiled to address pollution reduction, such as minimizing air pollution from waste incineration, reducing soil contamination from landfill chemicals, and lowering the risk of microplastics polluting water sources. This approach emphasizes the practical application of recycled materials to meet user needs while addressing pressing environmental and economic concerns.
