Abstract: Development of network model of reverse logistics based business activity on plastic waste management, a business activity in the process of determining the distribution network and transport waste plastic as the case may be which is reinforced by literature review regarding the business activity the same in some other countries such as India and Turkey. Reverse logistics is currently one of the best alternatives that can be considered to reduce the limited resources of raw materials. Models developed in the determination of reverse logistics network is based on the observation of this with a kind of business activity that occurred in Indonesia in this case the plastic waste management business activities that can provide economic value for the perpetrators and reinforced with activities similar businesses in other countries. The aim of research to develop models of reverse logistics in the determination of the distribution network and transport-related business activity management of plastic waste.
