Physical, Chemical, and Biological Pollution in Water, Air and Soil Industrial Products From PT. Torabika Eka Universe in Cikupa Tangerang
AI summary Read the abstract
Not relevant to microplastics — this qualitative study describes air, water, and soil pollution from a coffee manufacturing plant in Indonesia, covering industrial waste management practices without specific focus on microplastics.
Technological developments certainly provide big changes in human life, starting from infrastructure management to the food industry, and the drug industry, everything is very easy to do by utilizing current technological sophistication. Many bad impacts arise from these technological advances, the most prominent of which is pollution due to waste generated from the industry. The impact that occurs from failure in waste treatment is the occurrence of air, soil, and water pollution. This research method is a qualitative descriptive research, where the researcher directly becomes the instrument and the company is the respondent. Based on research results Pollution of water, air, and soil due to the industrial products of PT. Torabika Eka Semesta found that Torabika is a well-known coffee drink brand in Indonesia. To maintain a healthy environment, the Torabika company can do several things, including 1) Companies reduce their use of single-use plastic packaging; 2) Use environmentally friendly raw materials; 3) Optimizing energy use; 4) Improve recycling programs; 5) Build environmental awareness among employees and customers; 6) Improve recycling programs; 7) Build environmental awareness among employees and customers; 8) Improve recycling programs; and 9) Build environmental awareness among employees and customers.

Spatial Incidence and Characteristics of Microplastics Around Industrial Zones (Case Study: Surabaya Industrial Estate Rungkut, Indonesia)
AI summary Read the abstract
A survey of 19 surface water sites in an industrial estate in Surabaya, Indonesia found microplastics increasing steadily from upstream to downstream, reaching up to 548 particles per liter near the outlet. Most particles were small fragments of polypropylene and polyethylene, and cluster analysis identified the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and plastics industries as the biggest contributors. The study adds to evidence that industrial zones are major point sources of microplastic contamination in rivers.
