Abstract

Mismanaged plastic wastes still become main environmental problem in many countries. It also believed as the root of many environmental problem today faced by both advanced and develop countries, like Indonesia. Microplastics polluted the aquatic environment of Indonesia today mainly come from mismanaged plastic wastes (secondary), but both of the primary and secondary microplastics exist in Indonesian water. This paper reviews microplastic pollution in Indonesian water focused on two main topics, namely the characteristics of microplastics in Indonesian waters and their sources and effects of the presence of microplastics on aquatic organisms. This article was compiled using secondary data consisting of various data and papers, materials obtained from various sources of relevant and reliable official publications that are closely related to the microplastic pollution in Indonesian waters. These findings were then analyzed in an explanatory descriptive manner to provide an overview of characteristics and the sources of microplastics in Indonesian waters and how microplastics affect aquatic ecosystems. It is hoped that this will provide an opportunity to address this issue more effectively.

Abstract

Reverse Osmosis (RO) drinking water management can be the best solution to overcome the clean water crisis in Pulau Pinang. RO is a process that allows water to pass through a semi-permeable membrane and separates most of the dissolved salts, organic matter, bacteria, and other substances from the water to produce clean water. The use of the RO method in drinking water management is one of the best alternatives to overcome the clean water crisis, especially in the Pinang Island area with surface water sources that are not dominated by freshwater can ensure the availability of sustainable clean water. However, RO-based drinking water management is water demineralization, so further management is needed such as remineralization to meet mineral standards in drinking water.
