ClearPotential Utilization Analysis of River Waste in Jakarta, Indonesia
This study analyzed the composition and potential recyclability of river waste in Jakarta, Indonesia, where poor waste management leads to significant plastic debris entering waterways. Better waste sorting and utilization strategies could reduce the amount of plastic that breaks down into microplastics in urban rivers.
Major sources and monthly variations in the release of land-derived marine debris from the Greater Jakarta area, Indonesia
This study tracked monthly variations in marine debris discharged from the Greater Jakarta area in Indonesia, identifying land-based sources including rivers and coastal communities as major contributors. Peak discharge events correlated with rainfall patterns, highlighting the importance of monsoon-season waste management in reducing ocean plastic pollution.
Strategic action for waste management in Manado City to prevent marine debris input to Manado Bay: a preliminary study
Researchers conducted a preliminary assessment of waste management practices in Manado City, Indonesia, to identify strategic actions for preventing marine debris from entering Manado Bay. The study recommended both short-term mitigation and long-term management interventions to reduce the ecological, public health, and aesthetic impacts of marine debris in this coastal urban environment.
Analysis of Weight, Composition, Density, and Recycling Potential of Floating Marine Debris in Pasie Nan Tigo Area, Padang City
This Indonesian study analyzed the weight, composition, and recycling potential of floating marine debris collected in Padang City coastal waters. Plastic was found to dominate the floating debris, and the study assessed which materials could be recovered through recycling programs to reduce marine plastic pollution.
The contribution of estuaries to the abundance of microplastics in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia
Researchers found that rivers draining into Jakarta Bay are a major source of microplastics, with polyethylene fragments in the 300-500 micrometer size range dominating, and that spatial variation in abundance across nine estuaries reflects differences in local land use and waste management.
An Overview of Plastic Waste Recycling in the Urban Areas of Java Island in Indonesia
This overview examines plastic waste recycling management in urban areas across Java Island, Indonesia, one of the highest plastic-polluting regions in the world. It identifies barriers to improved recycling rates and proposes strategies to shift toward more sustainable production and consumption patterns.
The impact of improper solid waste management to plastic pollution in Indonesian coast and marine environment
Indonesia's plastic pollution problem in coastal and marine environments is largely driven by improper solid waste management on land, with rivers carrying significant plastic loads to the sea. The study emphasizes that improving terrestrial waste collection and disposal infrastructure is essential for reducing Indonesia's substantial contribution to ocean plastic pollution.
Marine Waste Management Policy As An Effort To Prevent Environmental Pollution And Sustainability Of Marine Ecosystems: Indonesia Perspective
This paper reviews Indonesia's marine waste management policies and concludes that plastic waste is the dominant type of marine litter in Indonesian waters, but existing regulations have not been fully enforced. The authors call for stronger upstream and downstream controls on plastic production and disposal to protect marine ecosystems, which are major sources of seafood for human consumption.
Strategies to Overcome Marine Pollution Caused by Plastic Waste to Protect Marine Environment in Indonesia
This paper reviews plastic pollution in Indonesian marine environments and discusses strategies to reduce it, including improved waste management, education, and policy enforcement. Indonesia is one of the world's largest contributors to ocean plastic waste due to rapid economic growth combined with inadequate waste infrastructure. The authors call for integrated national strategies combining regulatory, technological, and community approaches.
Marine macro debris transport based on hydrodynamic model before and after reclamation in Jakarta Bay, Indonesia
This hydrodynamic modeling study predicted how marine debris would move in Jakarta Bay before and after planned land reclamation, finding that the new island configuration would alter debris transport patterns. The study is relevant to understanding how coastal development affects the distribution of plastic waste.
Spatial distribution of marine debris in mangrove ecosystem of Pantai Indah Kapuk, Jakarta
Researchers surveyed marine debris in the mangrove ecosystem of Pantai Indah Kapuk in Jakarta, finding that plastic items made up 77.7% of all macro debris followed by styrofoam at 18.1%. Microplastics were also assessed in sediments, establishing baseline contamination data for this urban mangrove system.
Evaluating Marine Debris Trends and the Potential of Incineration in the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic in Southern Bali, Indonesia
Researchers assessed marine debris composition and amounts on beaches in southern Bali, Indonesia, finding that plastic dominated the litter and that COVID-19 increased the volume of medical and single-use plastic waste. The study also evaluated whether incineration could be a viable way to manage the accumulated marine debris given its energy content. The findings support the need for improved coastal waste collection and management in a region with high tourism and plastic pollution.
Indonesia's Policy in Addressing Marine Debris
This review examines the scale of marine debris — predominantly plastic — as a serious threat to ocean ecosystems, marine life, and fishing economies in Indonesia, one of the world's largest plastic-polluting nations. The paper evaluates Indonesia's existing policies (improved waste management, public education) and finds them insufficient, recommending a comprehensive, coordinated national approach. Indonesia's marine plastic challenge is a bellwether for the broader global problem of plastic waste reaching the ocean.
Identification of plastic waste generation and composition to reduce environmental disaster risk (case study: Public facility sources in Padang City)
A study in Padang City, Indonesia characterized plastic waste generation and composition at public facilities including parks, beaches, and roads as a first step toward reducing environmental disaster risk, finding that plastic waste from these sources poses significant risks of microplastic contamination in adjacent aquatic ecosystems.
Pembelajaran Penanganan Sampah Laut Di Di Pulau Seribu Dan Sekitarnya
This Indonesian educational paper discusses lessons learned from marine litter management around the Thousand Islands near Jakarta. The research examines community-based approaches to reducing plastic waste in a heavily visited island group where poor waste management has led to widespread marine debris.
Challenges and Opportunities in Managing Marine Debris: a Case Study of Pancana Village With a Bibliometric Perspective
Researchers combined bibliometric analysis of 2000-2023 marine debris literature with a field case study in Pancana Village, Indonesia, finding that plastic accounts for 78% of coastal debris and that land-based waste is the primary pollution source.
