Waste problem
Waste batik become a major problem in the city of Solo. There is only one Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP), to hundreds of home in Kampung Batik industry Laweyan.
The atmosphere at the edge of the river: "This WWTP is very close or are on the River Jenes waste ... they are not accommodated in this WWTP, direct it down the river and flows into the River Jenes Solo ... the water is black, foamy, and smelly sting, stink ... "
Environment Agency (BLH) Solo City continues to seek a solution of this waste. Solo BLH Spokesman Sultan Najamuddin invited me to see batik waste that pollute rivers.
Sultan Najamuddin: "It's a waste of accumulated precipitation decades ... in Laweyan it's a lot of industries and cottage industries of all ... it was tens or even hundreds of years ... we see that there are rivers in Surakarta , 50 percent of our sample accurately, the concentration of COD and BODnya ... polluting industries contribute ... "
Bio-ethanol
Besides using natural dyes, dozens of artisans in Kampung Batik Laweyan started switching to bio-ethanol, a substitute for kerosene. This fuel is used to melt the wax that coats the coloring process of batik. Socialization of the use of biofuels is done in house Kampung Batik Laweyan Chairman, Alfa Fabeela.
Batik crafters group Muhammadiyah University of Surakarta UMS took to make bio-ethanol burner for the batik industry in Laweyan. Chairman of the UMS team, Sri Kusmiyati, claimed to have tested a variety of other alternative fuels. Only a suitable bio-ethanol.
Sri Kusmiyati: "Kan liquid form, so still ... compared to similar petroleum gas, gas-operated hard ... hard ... continue to be diminished if briquette combustion take long to start ... the advantages of bio-ethanol, yes because of its more environmentally friendly liquid ... ... ingredients of flour iles-iles ... flour starch but not for eating ... yes ... a kind of tuber "
Government encouragement
The government had no choice, the environment and the batik industry must be saved. Solo Mayor Joko Widodo decided to immediately switch to natural dye batik to reduce hazardous waste. This step is supported colleges that help make the stove, bio-ethanol fuel.
This fits with the plan as the City makes the Solo Batik, as well as Environmental Friendly City. Mayor Joko Widodo believe eco-friendly products such as batik is a huge opportunity in the export market.
Joko Widodo: "batik trend forward is back to nature ... environmentally friendly industry has many enthusiasts in the U.S. and overseas ... Europe ... they want to batiks from nature ... as well as to create a green city life better. .. "
Cultural heritage
The UN cultural agency UNESCO has recognized batik as a unique world heritage Indonesia. This is a bright spot for the city of Solo to advance to the international world. However, some countries apply strict rules for imported products. States of America and Europe was already assured, they will only accept textile products that do not use chemical dyes.
Increased natural color batik enthusiasts apparently not accompanied by the availability of raw materials. Raw material supply of natural dyes is limited. During this natural color batik entrepreneurs rely solely on what's available in traditional markets, said Ahmad Faqin.
Ahmad Faqih: "That's part of selling ... there are some search gitu loh ... because search is easy ... if ya like wood teger, height, jambal from outside the island that was yes ... from the island of Lombok, West Nusa Tenggara. .. but others here a lot ... in the shops there is also a batik dyes ... usually there are specialty shops ... "
Food
Not only the supply of natural dye that caused concerns, but also bio-ethanol. Bio-ethanol used from tubers and sugar cane, which is also a human food. Alfa worry, bio-ethanol production would be hampered.
Alfa Fabela: "Actually that is included in our thoughts for the future that yes, the article was about if bio-fuel ingredient that's sometimes use human food energy was also competing with humans ... and I'll include those as it or not ... because we're hoping this batik industry continues to grow big later ... so do not let the raw materials of bio-ethanol is competing with man ... yes this is what we need to consider. "
Even so, in the field, inventories of natural dyes as well as bio-ethanol is not abundant, Mayor Joko Widodo said. He suspects, the supply crunch karena natural color batik is still less popular.
Joko Widodo: "It is a problem for its material ingredients can indeed be a problem ... but it really was not a commercial ... if you have commercial people know, ooo was able to put this on, we can use it, then it will be different .. . I saw was indeed as he tried, tried, and I see who likes it a lot ... which obviously is good for the environment friendly ... I see myself on the field ... "
Export commodities

Chairman of the Joint Business Group Natural Kampung Batik Batik Color Laweyan Ahmad Faqih sure, batik natural colors would be excellent. Moreover, UNESCO has been confirmed as one of Indonesian batik world's cultural heritage.
