Chapter I
Background and its Problem
I. Introduction
Environment is suffering from different problems and its effect is getting worse. One of the
biggest problems of nature is waste from people that causes pollution, diseases and loss of natural
habitat. Its negative effects are being experienced here in the Philippines and as a solution the
Government launched Environmental Management Bureau. The Ecological Solid Waste Management
Act is one of their constitutions; it is a national program that will manage the control, transfer,
transport, processing and disposal of solid waste in the country that would be implemented by the
National Solid Waste Management Commission as stated by the National Solid Waste Management
Commission. That is why schools, universities, and other institutions are implementing waste
management program. One of those schools is the researcher’s, the Dasmariñas National High School.
Waste management program are composed of waste segregation, reducing waste, reuse what
can be reuse and recycling wastes. Some schools sell this waste and turn them into additional funds for
the school.
The researchers thought of another way to recycle plastic bottle and plastic caps together with
other plastic wastes. The researchers thought of implementing the making of very useful materials
needed by the school such as bricks, plywood and chairs from these waste products. Since, this kind of
recycling were already being utilized at Imus City, Cavite as stated by R. Cruto (2015), why not
implement it also to the waste management program of the school.

II. Statement of the Problem
Generally, the study aims to innovate the waste management program of Dasmariñas
National High School.
Specifically, the study also aims to answer the following questions:
1.
2. Is the product made from plastic bottle and bottle caps acceptable in terms of:
1.1 durability ;
1.3 cost efficiency ?
III. Assumption
The researchers assumed that the innovation on the waste management program which is making
very useful materials from plastic bottle and bottle caps would be utilized by the Dasmari ñas National
High School. The products that were made would help the students, teachers and the school. The product
is expected to be acceptable in terms of the durability of the product made, appearance of the product,
and cost of making the product.

IV. Significance of the Study
This study is to benefit the following:
Environment. For it to have less solid wastes.
School. For it to have a new way of recycling waste materials and have a healthy
environment.
Students. For them to be to have a sturdy material made from plastics, learn where to
put their wastes, and help the environment.
Teachers. For them to have a very useful recycled material, be a role model to students,
and help the environment.
Manufacturers. For them to have a source of income, and help the environment.
Future Researchers. The study will serve as a basis for development for those who are
interested in saving environment. It can serve as a guide for future studies as they search
for more products that can be produced from recycling.

V. Scope and Limitations
The study entitled “INNOVATION ON THE WASTE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
OF DASMARIÑAS NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL” will be conducted in the vicinity of
Dasmariñas City, Cavite and Imus City, Cavite.
One product will be made for the acceptability of the way of recycling materials into very
useful materials. Involving plastic wastes such as plastic bags and candy wrappers will be mixed
with cement and sand to make bricks. Assistance of an expert will be utilized to make sure that
the process is correct. The visual sensory route will be the basis for judgment.
The study covers only the utilization of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) waste
materials such as plastic bags and candy wrappers. The researchers did not compare the products
with commercial ones.

VI. Definition of Terms
Appearance. State of the recycled product or products based on the visual sensory.
Cost. The amount of money that is needed in making the recycled product or products.
Durability. The ability of the recycled product to withstand damage.
Environment. The surroundings or conditions in which a person, animal, or plant lives or
operates that will benefit with this study.
Innovate. To make changes in something established, especially by introducing new
methods, ideas, or products, that the researchers would do to the waste management program.
Program. The researchers plan of action for the implementation of the proposed system.
Product. A material made from recycling plastics.
School. An institution where the waste management program is being utilized and where the
proposed system of recycling will be implemented.
Waste Management Program. Management of all processes and resources for
proper handling of waste materials, from maintenance of waste transport trucks
