Abstract

Air is a fundamental necessity for all living beings, especially humans. However, human activities whether intentional or unintentional can degrade air quality through pollution. This study compares the performance of the K-Means and K-Medoids clustering algorithms in analyzing the air pollution load from the industrial sector in Central Java in 2021. Using a quantitative approach and R Studio software, the analysis focuses on SO₂ and NO₂ pollution data obtained from the official Central Java BPS website. The results indicate that the K-Medoids algorithm with the silhouette method yields the most optimal clustering performance, with the lowest Davies-Bouldin Index (DBI) value of 0.6201437 and 10 distinct clusters. Notably, Cluster 1 comprises districts with the highest industrial air pollution burden such as Banjarnegara Regency, which recorded 14,472 industries and NO₂ and SO₂ concentrations of 20 μg/m³ and 6 μg/m³, respectively. These findings demonstrate that clustering algorithms not only help reveal spatial pollution patterns but also provide critical insights for prioritizing targeted mitigation efforts and informing environmental policy-making in industrially active regions.

Abstract

Water is a basic element for human survival, yet although 71% of the Earth's surface consists of water, only 1% of it is accessible to humans. Climate change, urbanization, and environmental issues are challenges experienced by the efforts of drinking water services in urban areas. In addition to providing sufficient drinking water, drinking water services must also pay attention to energy use and carbon emissions. This study aims to determine the factors that impact the sustainable performance of drinking water services in urban areas. The research method was conducted using bibliometric analysis. The analysis was conducted on 50 reputable articles with a publication period of 2013-2023, with the keywords urban water and municipal water. According to previous research, the water supply system in urban areas can be divided into three sub-systems: raw water, water treatment, and distribution. If associated with sustainability, the factors can be divided into economic factors, such as affordability, continuity, and quantity. Environment: pollution and carbon emissions. Social: accessibility and customer behavior. Most previous studies have focused only on economic aspects, further studies are needed to integrate all these factors into a performance measurement system to help decision-makers align strategic targets into operation level activities.

Abstract

Scope 3 emissions constitute the largest and most difficult-to-manage component of the carbon footprint of the steel industry; however, they remain underexplored owing to fragmented data systems and the absence of holistic analytical approaches. This study presents an integrated, real-data-driven framework for quantifying and reducing Scope 3 emissions in a medium-scale steel supply chain in West Bengal, India. Primary operational data were collected from upstream suppliers, midstream manufacturing operations, and downstream distributors using transport logs, meter-based energy records, scrap inspection sheets, on-site walk-throughs, and structured stakeholder interviews. Environmental Value Stream Mapping (EVSM) coupled with life-cycle emission accounting was applied to six process stages (UP1, UP2, MS1, MS2, DS1, and DS2), revealing the Electric Arc Furnace (MS1) as the dominant hotspot, contributing more than 90% of the total Scope 3 emissions. Circularity metrics, namely the Scrap Quality Index (SQI) and Material Circularity Index (MCI), demonstrated that higher scrap quality and increased recycled content can significantly decrease upstream embodied emissions. A cooperative game-theoretic model quantified abatement opportunities for suppliers, the manufacturer, and distributors, showing that full coalition formation {U, M, D} generated the highest net payoff (₹1.89 million). Shapley value allocation confirmed the manufacturer as the major beneficiary (97.6%), with proportionate gains assigned to suppliers and distributors. The results highlight that collaborative governance, enhanced circularity, optimized logistics, and renewable energy integration, particularly solar-based electricity substitution, collectively offer a high-impact pathway for Scope 3 decarbonization. The proposed multi-method framework provides a transparent, equitable, and industry-ready decision support system for accelerating low-carbon transitions in the Indian steel sector.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the volume, weight, composition of organic waste, the characteristics of C/N, moisture content, and biodegradability fraction as a reference for biodegradability potential. Using the load count analysis method—based on modifications of SNI 19-3964-1994 and the UN-Habitat Wise Waste Cities Tools (2010)—researchers measured the daily waste generation, which amounted to approximately 11,967±2,528 liters in volume and 1.91±0.4 tons in weight. The organic waste primarily consisted of dry leaves (53%), household waste (25%), green manure and grass (17%), and vegetable waste (5%). Laboratory tests revealed the waste had a carbon-to-nitrogen (C/N) ratio of 62.07%, a moisture content of 66.76%, and a biodegradability fraction of 7.6%. These values do not align with raw material composting standards, indicating the need for waste treatment before composting. To enhance the composting process, the study recommends separating green (nitrogen-rich) and brown (carbon-rich) materials, prioritizing the green portion as the main composting input, and drying the material initially to reduce moisture to 40–45%. Composting is highlighted as a simple, eco-friendly solution for managing organic waste, contributing to soil fertility, structure improvement, and supporting sustainable agricultural practices.

Abstract

Global warming, driven in part by livestock manure emissions, poses a major environmental challenge. Refuse Derived Fuel (RDF) offers a waste-to-energy solution by converting solid cow manure into an energy source. This study investigated the impact of Bacillus sp. inoculation on the biodrying process of cow dung. The main challenge in processing cow manure into RDF is ensuring that the moisture content and calorific value meet the minimum RDF standards. Therefore, a biodrying process was carried out on cow manure to achieve these required standards. Biodrying performance was assessed based on drying time, moisture content, pH, and calorific value. The results show that inoculation with Bacillus sp.. The results showed that inoculation with Bacillus sp. at 10⁶ log cfu ml⁻¹ kg⁻¹ yielded the most efficient outcome, achieving the fastest drying time (12 days), lowest moisture content (9.64%), optimal pH (7.8), and highest calorific value (2,656.5 kcal/kg). These findings confirm a direct link between moisture reduction and calorific improvement. Hence, bio-dried cow dung treated with inoculation of Bacillus sp. 106 log cfu ml-1 Kg-1 is recommended as a viable RDF material.

Abstract

Climate change has become a serious threat to all humans, with impacts already being felt throughout the planet. One effort in climate change education is to improve students' climate literacy and climate change awareness. This study aimed to measure climate literacy and climate change awareness among vocational high school students and analyze the relationship between aspects of these two variables. A questionnaire with a 5-point Likert scale was used, and the data were processed using descriptive statistics and Pearson ’scorrelation analysis. The results from 295 respondents showed that the average climate literacy was in the high category (3.50), while climate change awareness was in the medium category (3.40). However, both showed significant gaps in each aspect. The results of the correlation analysis showed a significant relationship between attitudes and behavior, both in climate literacy (r = 0.323) and climate change awareness (r = 0.142). Climate change education not only conveys information in the form of knowledge but also includes efforts to strengthen attitudes that can encourage sustainable climate-friendly behavior. The results of this study will serve as the basis for developing climate change teaching materials in vocational high schools to improve students' climate literacy and climate change awareness.

Abstract

Increased domestic wastewater discharge degrades river quality. This study evaluated phytoremediation using constructed wetlands with umbrella sedge plants to treat greywater prior to river discharge. Using a randomized block design, the study tested two substrates (activated carbon and quartz sand), plant quantity (0, 4, 8, or 12 clumps), and retention time (0 to 4 days) on key wastewater parameters: BOD, COD, TSS, ammonia (NH₃-N), and orthophosphate (PO₄). Data were analyzed via t-tests, ANOVA, and regression at a 5% significance level. Results indicated that a combination of activated carbon, 12 plant clumps, and a four-day retention time was the most effective in reducing TSS, BOD, COD, and phosphate, although it was less effective for ammonia. By the fourth day, all treated pollutant levels successfully met quality standards, making the water safe for river release.

Abstract

The Putri Cempo landfill serves as the final disposal site for organic and inorganic waste. Waste from the landfill can dissolve and settle in river sediments, potentially accumulating heavy metals, such as iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn), which easily bind to organic matter. This study aims to determine the content of Iron (Fe) and Manganese (Mn) in rivers around the Putri Cempo landfill. The concentrations of Fe and Mn weres analyzed using atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) according to SNI 6989.84:2019, with sediment sampling conducted in rivers around the Putri Cempo landfill. Sediment sampling in these rivers revealed Fe levels of 1519.414245 mg/L and Mn levels of 130.033 mg/L. The analysis indicated that Fe concentrations exceeded the established quality threshold, whereas Mn levels remained below it. Heavy metals like Fe and Mn negatively impact abiotic and biotic environments, including human health and agricultural productivity. Elevated heavy metal levels disrupt ecosystem balance and pose health risks, making their management crucial. Reducing heavy metals in river sediments near the landfill is essential. Remediation efforts using bioremediation and phytoremediation technologies can help mitigate these impacts. Ongoing efforts are necessary to control heavy metal contamination in river sediments, ensuring ecosystem stability and public health.

Abstract

Coffee liberica is an economically important yet under-researched coffee species in Indonesia. This study evaluated the individual and combined effects of Starbo-AFE compost and volcanic ash on vegetative growth and physiological performance of C. liberica in Jambi, Indonesia. A two-factor factorial experiment arranged in a randomized complete block design tested three compost rates (0, 250, and 500 g plant⁻¹) and three volcanic ash rates (0, 250, and 500 g plant⁻¹) with three replications. Measured variables included leaf area, primary branch diameter, number of fruiting branches, chlorophyll content, and soil chemical properties. Starbo-AFE compost significantly increased leaf area and branch diameter (p < 0.05), with the highest values at 500 g plant⁻¹, increasing by 54.6% and 17.5%, respectively, compared with the control. Volcanic ash alone showed no short-term effect; however, its combination with compost resulted in the highest chlorophyll content, indicating a synergistic response. Compost improved soil total N and organic carbon, while volcanic ash enhanced potassium availability and potential pH buffering. Overall, applying 500 g Starbo-AFE compost per plant effectively promotes early vegetative growth of C. liberica on peat soils, with volcanic ash contributing to longer-term soil fertility improvement.

Abstract

At present, climate change is a global issue affecting the entire world, including tropical countries such as Indonesia. Previous studies have indicated that changes in these conditions have grave impacts on hydrological disasters. Therefore, the pattern of climate change needs to be analyzed for the feasibility of adaptation and mitigation in the future. This present study developed analyses into the trend in temperature variation over East Java both on an annual and daily time scale. Observation data within a long period from 1985 to 2023 was used for comprehensive results. Methods applied include linear regression, the Man-Kendall test, and Sen's Slope test. The new finding that emerged for the temperature variable was that the increase in temperature went over the global and national averages and consistently showed a significant increasing trend across the study area. However, the rainfall variable revealed different results in highlands, where the rainfall intensity decreased-in SDII and R100, inversely proportional to coastal areas. It means that climate change does not occur uniformly everywhere but varies spatially. These findings raise a case for climate change mapping to formulate appropriate adaptation and mitigation strategies.
