Abstract

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) represents a profound global health challenge, contributing to an estimated 17.9 million deaths annually worldwide. In Indonesia, the burden of CVD is particularly significant, with coronary heart disease prevalence at 1.5% and Non-Communicable Diseases (NCDs), including CVD, accounting for 73% of all fatalities. Community-based programs, such as Prolanis, have been implemented as key intervention strategies. This systematic review analyzes the effectiveness of these programs in reducing CVD risk factors among NCD patients in Indonesia, examining their impact within the complex environmental and socio-cultural context. The methodology involved collecting articles from Google Scholar, PubMed, and ScienceDirect, applying keywords in PICO format, and filtering using the PRISMA flow diagram, ultimately including six articles for detailed analysis. Findings indicate that community-based programs generally contribute positively to controlling cardiovascular risk factors through health education and regular monitoring. However, effectiveness varies, influenced by intervention duration, participant adherence, and individual health conditions. This variability underscores the profound influence of broader environmental factors, including air and water quality, food environment, green space access, waste management, and noise pollution, all prevalent challenges in Indonesia. Furthermore, socio-cultural factors, such as traditional health beliefs, communal habits like gotong royong, and socioeconomic disparities, significantly mediate program acceptance and adherence. This analysis highlights the imperative for holistic, context-specific, and interdisciplinary approaches to CVD prevention in Indonesia, integrating public health interventions with environmental improvements and culturally sensitive strategies to enhance overall program effectiveness and sustainability.

Abstract

Efforts are required to save energy and utilize energy efficiently because of fossil fuel depletion. The purpose of this study is to determine the performance of the Tutong CCPP through a study of energy and exergy efficiency, also exergy losses analysis by determining four scenarios. Energy and exergy analysis using the Cycle Tempo program obtained the results of energy efficiency in scenario 1, which is 49.26%, almost the same as the energy efficiency in scenario 2, which is 49.1% where the CCPP operates with the same GT and ST loads but in scenario 2 the ST ASV experiences actuator damage. Scenario 3 obtained CCPP efficiency of 47.6% and scenario 4 obtained open cycle efficiency of 28.2%. The largest exergy loss occurred in the Condenser, which was 81.9% in scenarios 1 and 2 and 83.4% in scenario 3. From these results, it shown the greatest exergy loss occurred in scenario 3 where two ACC fans were not functioning, resulting in greater losses due to suboptimal vacuum. A significant exergy loss also occurs in the combustion chamber, which are 15.1%, 15.05%, 15.6% in scenarios 1, 2, 3 and also 16.7% in scenario 4. A large exergy loss in scenario 4 also occurs in the chimney, that is 16.7%.

Abstract

Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) has been increasingly promoted in Indonesia as an alternative waste-to-energy solution, particularly for industrial applications such as cement production. This study presents a qualitative narrative review that explores the multidimensional environmental impacts of RDF implementation, with a specific focus on the Indonesian context. Four key themes were examined: air pollution, public health risks, low energy efficiency, and the lack of emission monitoring and environmental oversight. Findings indicate that RDF combustion contributes to hazardous emissions, including dioxins, heavy metals, and fine particulates, especially where waste segregation is inadequate. Public health issues such as respiratory infections and long-term toxic exposure are exacerbated by weak regulatory systems and the absence of Continuous Emission Monitoring Systems (CEMS). Additionally, Indonesia’s high organic waste content undermines RDF’s energy efficiency and sustainability. The review concludes that RDF, in its current form, poses significant environmental and governance challenges and must be reevaluated through the lens of public health protection, regulatory reform, and circular economy principles.

Abstract

The ineffectiveness of hygiene and sanitation standards in the food industry, including the tofu industry in Indonesia, remains a significant issue. This condition increases the risk of Escherichia coli (E. coli) contamination, which can negatively impact public health. This study aims to provide an in-depth understanding of hygiene and sanitation practices in tofu businesses in Jomblang, Semarang City, and serve as a basis for improving food safety and hygiene standards. A descriptive quantitative approach was used, with data collected through interviews, observations, and laboratory tests. The analysis revealed that many hygiene aspects, such as equipment and raw material handling, did not meet the required standards, posing a risk of microbial contamination. Laboratory tests confirmed the presence of Escherichia coli in tofu soaking water samples, indicating potential health hazards for consumers. The implementation of hygiene and sanitation principles in food production must be optimized to improve product quality and prevent the spread of infectious diseases.

Abstract

Energy demand in Indonesia continues to rise in line with population and economic growth. Using Jakarta city of Indonesia, as a representative case, energy consumption in the transportation sector has risen significantly from year to year. This escalation contributes to deteriorating air quality and poses adverse impacts on public health. To prevent similar condition in the new capital city (Ibukota Nusantara - IKN), this study examines green hydrogen production to support Fuel Cell Electrical Vehicle (FCEV)-based transportation. The objective of this research is to evaluate the technical, economic feasibility and environmental benefit of a solar PV -power-driven Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolyzer (PEMWE) system for large-scale hydrogen generation in IKN. A dynamic PEMWE model was developed and simulated using MATLAB/Simulink/Simscape under operating temperatures of 60 °C, 80 °C and 100 °C at a current density of 1.2 A/cm2. Key performance indicators evaluated include membrane water diffusion flux, electro-osmotic drag, hydrogen production rate and system efficiency.  Result show that operation 80 °C achieves the optimal performance. Scaled-up calculations indicate a hydrogen output of 3,006.62 kg/day with an electricity demand of 143,617 kWh, resulting in specific energy consumption of 47.9 kWh/kg outperforming the commercial PEMWE range 51-55 kWh/kg. This production capacity can fuel approximately 1,500 FCEVs corresponding to a potential CO2 emission reduction of 13,112.7 kg CO2-eq/day. Economic analysis using the Levelized Cost of Hydrogen (LCOH), with a 6% WACC and 20-years project life, yields an annualized CAPEX of roughly MUSD 31 and electricity dominated OPEX of KUSD 577 per year. The resulting LCOH od USD 3.0/kg H2 aligns with projected 2030 green hydrogen cost target. In conclusion, Solar PV -powered PEMWE development in IKN is demonstrates holistic feasibility in term of technical viable, economically competitive and environment impactful.

Abstract

The oil palm plantation industry continues to expand rapidly, positioning Indonesia as the world’s largest producer, followed by Malaysia and Thailand. However, this growth is accompanied by a rising prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) among oil palm farmers, primarily due to heavy physical workloads and non-ergonomic postures during harvesting activities. A systematic search was conducted using PubMed, ScienceDirect, ResearchGate, and Google Scholar to identify studies published between 2020 and 2025 that examined MSD complaints, ergonomic risk factors, and work postures among oil palm workers. Nine articles met the inclusion criteria and were analyzed. The findings show that the most common MSD complaints occur in the neck, shoulders, wrists, lower back, feet, and knees. These issues arise mainly from manual harvesting tasks, such as cutting fronds and fresh fruit bunches (FFB) using egrek and dodos tools, as well as transporting harvested fruit. Key risk factors include awkward postures, repetitive movements, long working hours, heavy physical loads, age, and years of service. Beyond individual ergonomic factors, the studies reviewed highlight the significant impact of environmental conditions uneven terrain, slippery soil, extreme heat, dense vegetation, and varying land contours which increase biomechanical stress and force workers into compensatory postures, elevating MSDs risk. The interaction between tool design and challenging field conditions underscores that ergonomics and environmental management are closely interconnected. Recent advances in wearable technologies, including Electromyography (EMG) and Inertial Measurement Units (IMU), offer more accurate real-time assessments of posture, muscle activity, and environmental influences, supporting data-driven prevention strategies. While mechanical harvesting tools show potential to reduce MSD risk, their success depends on ergonomic design, field adaptability, and worker acceptance. Recommendations include designing environment-sensitive ergonomic tools, improving field accessibility, providing training on safe techniques, and implementing early sensor-assisted health monitoring.

Abstract

Water is an important element in human survival, ironically the benefits of water are often not seen by people who have access to very abundant water. Factor ecology is a determinant of water availability in an area, as is the case in the village of Geneng, Bulukerto, Wonogiri, Central Java. The preservation of the forest, which was initiated by a figure named Mbah Sadiman around the village, who planted Ficus Benjamina, is allegedly a factor in the availability of water in the village is very abundant compared to a few decades ago after forest fires that cause water shortages during the dry season. Forest spring water sources are able to produce an average discharge of 71.78 liters/s. The discharge can generate electrical energy with a Micro-hydro Power Plant of 4.5668 kW, which can generate a cash flow of IDR 57.7 million/year. The Net Present Value (NPV) obtained is IDR 224 million with a project life of 20 years. The economic value generated by forest environmental services in the form of water resources has significant economic value, and this value is obtained only from the use of electrical energy.

Abstract

River water quality is vital to life, but anthropogenic activities have caused significant degradation, threatening aquatic ecosystems and clean water supplies. Although bioindicators have long been used to monitor river health, there has been no bibliometric review to analyze trends and research gaps in this field. Previous studies have mostly focused on specific species or physical-chemical parameters, but have not yet fully integrated an ecosystem indicator approach. Therefore, this study aims to address this gap by conducting a bibliometric analysis of publications on animals as bioindicators of river water quality. The method used is a bibliometric review using data from the Scopus database (2020–2024), analyzed using VOSviewer to visualize the co-occurrence of keywords, as well as a descriptive analysis of publication trends, journals, and fields of study. The results show a significant increase in publications since 2020, with Ecological Indicators and Science of the Total Environment as the leading journals, and Environmental Science as the dominant field of study. Co-occurrence analysis identified three main research clusters: ecology and communities, physiological responses to pollutants, and heavy metal contamination. These findings indicate that global research focus is concentrated on the impact of heavy metal pollutants, while the issues of microplastics and climate change on bioindicators are relatively less explored. This clustering pattern also emphasizes the importance of combining ecological, physiological, and pollution-related approaches, reflecting interdisciplinary advances in this area. In conclusion, the use of animals as bioindicators has a strong theoretical basis and offers an integrated approach to water management such as river. Future studies focusing on developing more sensitive bioassay methods and conducting long-term toxicity analyses are important, but they must also incorporate molecular tools such as eDNA and metabolomics to strengthen biomonitoring systems. In addition, decision makers are encouraged to implement bioindicators that use animals in water quality monitoring systems in order to improve early detection capabilities for river ecosystem degradation.
