Microplastic Contaminant in Indonesia: A review on Debris, Exposure, Health Risk and Future Perspective
This Indonesian review collates data on microplastic contamination across the country's marine and coastal environments, documenting debris in fish, shellfish, and seawater, and assessing exposure and health risks for the Indonesian population. Given Indonesia's status as one of the world's largest sources of ocean plastic waste, the findings underscore both local exposure risks and the country's critical role in global microplastic pollution.

This Indonesian overview examines the problems of microplastic contamination in coastal and marine environments, reviewing the sources, distribution, and ecological effects of plastic pollution. The paper highlights the particular vulnerability of Indonesian coastal areas given high plastic waste generation and limited waste management infrastructure.
Microplastic Pollution in Indonesia: The Contribution of Human Activity to the Abundance of Microplastics
This systematic review of Indonesian microplastic research found that coastal and marine sediments have the highest microplastic abundances, driven by widespread use of cheap single-use plastics and poor waste management across urban and rural areas.
Microplastic Pollution in Waters and its Impact on Health and Environment in Indonesia: A Review
This review assessed microplastic pollution in Indonesian waters, documenting widespread contamination across rivers, coastal areas, and marine environments, and discussing the health and ecological impacts for the world's second-largest plastic waste contributor.
Identification of Microplastic Abundance in Indonesia's Coastal Regions: A Review
This review assessed microplastic abundance across Indonesia's coastal regions, synthesizing studies from rivers, seas, and lakes to document the extent of MP pollution in this archipelago nation with high plastic waste generation and limited waste management infrastructure.
Existence of Microplastics in Indonesia’s Surface Water: A Review
This review summarizes evidence of microplastic contamination in surface waters across Indonesia, finding widespread pollution in rivers, lakes, and coastal areas. The study underscores the urgency of improved plastic waste management in a country with one of the world's largest contributions to ocean plastic pollution.
Review of Microplastic Pollution in Indonesian Waters
This review documents the extent of microplastic pollution across Indonesian waters, including rivers, coastal areas, and the seafloor, and discusses its sources and environmental impacts. Indonesia is one of the world's largest plastic waste producers, making understanding the domestic microplastic problem critical for regional marine health.
Literature Review: Microplastic Content in the Digestive Tracts of Fish in Indonesian Waters
This literature review synthesizes studies on microplastic content in the digestive tracts of fish from Indonesian waters, covering contamination levels across species, habitats, and regions. The review identifies widespread microplastic ingestion in Indonesian fisheries with implications for seafood safety and marine ecosystem health.
Scoping Review on Microplastic Pollution in Aquatic Species Across Indonesian Waters
This review of 13 studies found that tiny plastic particles called microplastics are widespread in fish, shellfish, and other sea creatures that people eat from Indonesian waters. The plastic contamination was especially high in filter-feeding animals like clams and in species living near polluted areas. This is concerning because it means people in Indonesia may be eating seafood contaminated with plastic particles, though more research is needed to understand the health risks.
Microplastic Contamination in Fish and Shellfish: A Review
This review examined microplastic contamination in fish and shellfish consumed by Indonesian populations, covering detection methods, contamination levels, and potential human health risks. The authors found that microplastics are widespread in commercially important species and called for national-level monitoring programs and regulations on plastic discharge into aquatic environments.
Development of Microplastic Research in Indonesia
This systematic review maps the development of microplastic research across Indonesia, documenting studies conducted on the islands of Sumatra, Java, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, and Papua. The findings reveal that microplastic contamination has been detected in Indonesian waters, sediments, and marine organisms, which is concerning given that Indonesia is one of the world's top contributors to ocean plastic pollution.
Threats of Microplastic Pollution on Aquaculture Activities in Indonesia
This review examined microplastic contamination in Indonesian aquaculture systems, including shrimp, fish, and seaweed farms. Microplastics were found in aquaculture environments and organisms throughout Indonesia, threatening both ecosystem health and seafood safety. The paper calls for better monitoring and management of plastic pollution in Indonesia's extensive aquaculture sector.
Ancaman Sampah Plastik Terhadap Organisme Di Berbagai Ekosistem
This Indonesian review examines plastic pollution threats across marine, riverine, mangrove, terrestrial, livestock, and human ecosystems, finding microplastics present in fish, zooplankton, corals, and sediments, with evidence of hormonal disruption and ecological damage across multiple system types.
Microplastic Contamination in Marine Fish and Shells in the Coastal Areas of Jember Regency, Indonesia
Researchers detected microplastic contamination in the gastrointestinal tracts of marine fish and shellfish from coastal Jember, Indonesia, finding fibers, fragments, granules, and filaments, with contamination levels varying by species and location.
Concentration, distribution, and characteristics of microplastic in estuary, coast and marine organisms in Indonesia: A Preliminary Review
This preliminary review mapped microplastic concentrations and characteristics in estuaries, coastal sediments, and marine organisms across Indonesia based on published studies. Microplastics were widespread across all compartments studied, with fibers dominant in many locations. The review identifies significant data gaps and calls for more coordinated monitoring to understand Indonesia's marine plastic pollution problem.
Microplastics in Indonesian land and aquatic environment: From research activities to regulation policies
This review examines over 250 microplastic research studies conducted across Indonesia's land, freshwater, and ocean environments over the past decade. The study suggests that current research is insufficient to provide a complete picture of microplastic distribution in Indonesia, and recommends improved coordination among researchers, stronger enforcement of plastic-reduction regulations, and greater investment in waste management infrastructure.
Dampak Mikroplastik terhadap Ekosistem Pesisir: Sebuah Telaah Pustaka
This Indonesian-language review examines the impacts of microplastics on coastal ecosystems, covering effects on marine organisms, sediment quality, and food web dynamics. The paper highlights the vulnerability of tropical coastal environments to plastic pollution from both land-based and marine sources.
Distribution of Microplastics in Coastal Waters and Their Implications for the Marine Food Chain
Researchers sampled surface water, sediments, and marine organisms from urban, industrial, and conservation coastal zones in Indonesia to assess microplastic distribution and food chain implications. Industrial zones had the highest microplastic concentrations, and filter feeders accumulated more particles than fin fish, indicating distinct exposure pathways through the marine food web.
Plastic pollution research in Indonesia: State of science and future research directions.
This meta-analysis reviews the state of plastic pollution research in Indonesia, a country identified as one of the top contributors to global plastic waste. The findings highlight significant gaps in data on microplastic contamination in Indonesian waters and ecosystems, which matters because plastic pollution from this region affects global ocean health and the seafood supply chain.

Mapping mismanaged plastic waste in Indonesia: subdistrict-level analysis through material flow from sources to the environment
Researchers found that Indonesia produces over 9 million tons of plastic waste each year, with more than 1 million tons ending up directly in rivers, drains, and illegally dumped on land. This mismanaged plastic waste breaks down into tiny particles called microplastics that can contaminate drinking water and food sources, potentially affecting human health. The study helps identify pollution hotspots where better waste management could reduce plastic entering the environment and our bodies.
