Fifty sets of 2-bins recycling system were allocated in the Faculty of Engineering and Built Environment, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM). The number of recyclable items found in the recycling and mixed waste bins served as dependent measurements. Results indicated that the recycling containers successfully recovered recyclable items by 49.5%, but still a high proportion of recyclable items thrown into the mixed waste container which is 50.5% which indicates wrong bins usage. Awareness programs are required to increase rate of participation among students.</p&gt;}, number={1}, journal={Journal of Civil Engineering, Science and Technology}, author={Tiew, Kian-ghee and Watanabe, Kohei and Ahmad Basri, NoorEzlin and Md.
