Abstract

Background: Indonesia, as an agrarian country, faces a major challenge in the form of an energy crisis within the agricultural sector, increasingly exacerbated by climate change. Approximately 62% of agricultural energy demand in Indonesia still relies on conventional methods, while irrigation energy requirements continue to rise by an average of 15% per planting season in drought-prone areas. Consequently, 64% of farmers report energy cost increases exceeding 20%, and 27% experience partial crop failures, posing a threat to national food security. To address these challenges, this study proposes an innovation called REGENerasi: a renewable bioenergy technology based on anaerobic fermentation and the Internet of Things (IoT), utilizing corn and straw waste. Methods: This study employs a literature-based analytical approach to explore the potential of integrating anaerobic fermentation reactors with IoT sensors for efficient bioenergy production. The anaerobic fermentation process converts lignocellulosic agricultural residues particularly corn cobs and straw containing 32–40% cellulose, 25–30% hemicellulose, and 15–20% lignin into biogas (methane), biochar, and liquid fertilizer within a multi-integrated system. IoT-based monitoring and control systems were theoretically assessed for their capacity to enhance biomass conversion efficiency and energy savings. Findings: The literature review reveals that IoT integration in anaerobic fermentation systems can improve biomass conversion efficiency by up to 35% and reduce energy consumption by 20%. The use of high-lignocellulose agricultural waste, such as corn and straw residues, provides a sustainable substrate for biogas production. The proposed system has potential to generate thermal and electrical energy while simultaneously producing biochar and organic fertilizer, creating a circular and environmentally friendly agricultural energy model. Conclusion: This bioenergy innovation strengthens farmers’ energy independence and contributes to climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies. It aligns with Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 13 Climate Action by promoting local renewable energy solutions within the agricultural sector. Novelty/Originality of this article: The novelty of this research lies in the development of an adaptive renewable bioenergy system that integrates anaerobic fermentation with IoT technology using corn and straw waste as substrates. This multi-integrated model offers a new pathway for sustainable energy generation and circular resource management in rural agricultural communities, particularly in East Java, Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Climate change has increased the intensity and frequency of droughts globally and affected freshwater availability, particularly in developing regions with limited adaptive capacity. In Sumatra, prolonged droughts and reduced rainfall have increased vulnerability to drought, necessitating accurate projections to support climate resilience and sustainable water management. This study aims to assess drought projections in Sumatra from 2015 to 2100 in the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways 5-8.5 (SSP 5-8.5), which represents a high emission trajectory. Methods: CMIP6 monthly precipitation from the CMIP6 EC-Earth3 model was bias-corrected using Monthly Mean Bias Correction. The corrected precipitation was used to calculate Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) to evaluate future drought conditions based on rainfall distribution. Findings: The SPI calculation results show that the frequency of severe droughts (SPI < -1.5) experiences significant interannual fluctuations, in line with rainfall patterns that exhibit oscillatory patterns every few years. The southern part of Sumatra emerged as the most drought-prone region with more than 140 drought events detected. The highest drought vulnerability occurs between March and May in the northern region, which has an equatorial rainfall pattern, while the peak drought vulnerability occurs between September and November in the southern region. Atmospheric circulations such as the ITCZ, ENSO, and IOD, as well as topographic and geographic factors, play a crucial role in regulating drought in Sumatra. Conclusion: Future droughts in Sumatra will be more frequent, occurring in short but severe periods compared to weak, long-lasting droughts. The influence of atmospheric circulation will change with climate change and future anthropogenic pressures, increasing the unpredictability of droughts. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study integrates climate projections with robust and efficient drought index calculations to assess future droughts. Supported by comprehensive spatio-temporal analysis, the findings of this study can provide key-insights for climate resilience and sustainable meteorological-based water management efforts. However, uncertainties remain related to single-model dependency, emission scenario assumptions, and SPI’s precipitation-only formulation.

Abstract

Background: Rapid urbanization and economic growth in Indonesia have significantly increased municipal solid waste generation, posing environmental challenges. While prior studies have explored socioeconomic influences on waste, few have analyzed the combined effects of demographic and economic factors across all districts and cities using recent nationwide data. This study aims to provide empirical insights into the socioeconomic determinants of waste generation and to support the development of data-driven, sustainable waste management policies in Indonesia. Methods: This study analyzes daily waste generation in 2024, focusing on GRDP per capita, population density, average years of schooling, and poverty rate (P0). District- and city-level data were obtained from Statistics Indonesia and the National Waste Management Information System. Robust Linear Regression was applied to assess the effects of these variables. Findings: Population density increases waste generation, while higher average years of schooling and higher poverty rates are linked to lower waste production. GRDP per capita shows no significant effect. Social and demographic factors, therefore, play a stronger role than short-term economic output in shaping waste patterns. Conclusion: Average years of schooling, poverty rate, and population density are key drivers of waste generation, emphasizing the need to integrate socioeconomic and urban planning considerations into waste management strategies. Novelty/Originality of this article: The study provides nationwide empirical evidence on socioeconomic determinants of waste generation in Indonesia and offers practical insights for developing data-driven, sustainable waste management policies.

Abstract

Background: According to the UN World Urban Prospect data, by 2050, 72.2% of the world’s population will live in cities, especially in Asia and Africa. Meanwhile, in Indonesia, the urban population is estimated to reach 70% of the total population by 2045. This indicates the presence of population pressures due to rapid urbanization and environmental stress in the form of increasing demand for clean water supply to sustain urban population growth. This study is a narrative review examining the implementation of Local Ecological Knowledge (LEK) as a grassroots approach in urban water management in Indonesia and other countries. Methods: Through analysis of 24 case studies using a narrative review approach from both developing and developed countries, this research aims to identify key factors enabling the application of LEK within an integrated bottom-up water resource management framework. Findings: Analysis reveals three critical patterns: successful LEK integration occurs when traditional systems operate within strong social structures with institutional recognition; failures emerge from power imbalances and technocratic-centralistic approaches; and urbanization threatens LEK continuity. Indonesian cases reveal LEK manifesting in spiritual-ecological relationships with water sources, collective cultural practices as social control mechanisms, and autonomous community-based management systems. Self-supply practices by approximately 90% of Indonesian urban households represent adaptive resilience rooted in LEK. Conclusion: This study demonstrates that LEK is a culturally embedded knowledge system essential for sustainable urban water governance. The primary challenge is misalignment between community logic and institutional logic, perpetuated by power imbalances and dominance of scientific-instrumental knowledge. Achieving sustainability requires collaborative platforms bridging formal and local knowledge systems, and capacity-building support for existing community practices. Novelty/Originality of this article: This study recommends a paradigm shift in water management from a predominantly technocratic-centralistic approach toward a hybrid planning model that recognizes LEK as a knowledge system that can be integrated into public policy frameworks.

Abstract

Background: The microbial biofilm, a matrix-encased community, represents a foundational biological entity mediating critical outcomes across both environmental and human health sectors. The purpose of this comprehensive review is to synthesize the disparate literature on biofilm dynamics and its dual impact, thereby establishing the necessary framework for a unified research strategy. A vast body of work confirms the biofilm's role in nutrient cycling and protection, but simultaneously highlights its involvement in major global challenges, including infectious disease and ecological stability loss. Methods: This review synthesizes extant literature from environmental microbiology, clinical medicine, and biogeochemistry to construct a cohesive theoretical model. The core theoretical component introduced is the "biofilm health" analogy, which compares a biofilm community to an ecosystem where functional diversity dictates resilience and resistance to invasion. Findings: The core finding is the biological paradox inherent in the biofilm's structure: the same resilience mechanism (the Extracellular Polymeric Substance, or EPS) that drives positive ecological processes like bioremediation simultaneously accelerates the global crisis of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in clinical settings, and facilitates the persistence of environmental pathogens and destructive biocorrosion. This paradox mandates a holistic research paradigm shift. Conclusion: Addressing this paradox necessitates a unified One Health approach, compelling researchers to develop non-antimicrobial disruption strategies targeting the EPS matrix. Novelty/Originality of this article: This work introduces the "biofilm health" analogy as a transdisciplinary conceptual tool and provides the first comprehensive synthesis detailing how the biofilm structure itself acts as the central bottleneck linking ecological stability and clinical health outcomes.

Abstract

Background: The extensive use of single-use plastic cups has caused serious environmental problems, including plastic accumulation and microplastic pollution. At the same time, tea-processing industries generate large quantities of spent tea waste that remain underutilized despite their high cellulose content. This study aims to propose an innovative and sustainable solution by utilizing cellulose extracted from spent tea waste to produce a biodegradable and water-resistant cup that supports circular economy principles. Methods: This study employed an experimental and material development approach. Spent tea waste was collected, sorted, dried, and milled to obtain uniform particles. The cellulose-rich material was blended with cassava starch as a natural binder and molded using a press-molding technique. A natural wax coating was applied to improve water resistance. The developed product was evaluated through mechanical strength tests, water absorption tests, water resistance tests, and biodegradability assessment, supported by descriptive and comparative analysis. Findings: The results indicate that SentaCup has sufficient mechanical strength for beverage containers, demonstrates good resistance to water, and is capable of biodegrading within approximately 90–120 days. The utilization of cellulose as a natural polymer contributes to structural strength, flexibility, and thermal stability. This innovation shows strong potential as an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional single-use plastic cups while adding value to organic waste. Conclusion: The development of SentaCup demonstrates that spent tea waste can be effectively transformed into a functional, biodegradable, and water-resistant cup. This innovation contributes to reducing plastic waste, supporting circular resource management, and promoting environmental sustainability. Novelty/Originality of this article: The novelty aspect refers to the new or innovative elements in a research study that distinguish it from previous work. It includes unique contributions, new methods, or findings that have not been explored before in the field.

Abstract

Background: Flood-prone areas present significant public health challenges, particularly in urbanized regions where inadequate drainage systems and water stagnation create ideal breeding grounds for disease vectors such as mosquitoes. This study investigates the relationship between flood risks and mosquito habitat proliferation in Gowa, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Methods: By combining a comprehensive field survey with Geographic Information System (GIS) spatial mapping, the study aimed to identify environmental and infrastructural factors contributing to mosquito breeding, particularly Aedes aegypti, the primary vector for dengue and Zika virus. Findings: The results revealed that areas with poorly managed drainage systems and stagnant water were high-risk zones for mosquito breeding, correlating with increased mosquito densities and higher disease transmission potential. The study also found that rapid urbanization, combined with insufficient waste management, further exacerbates the risk by providing numerous breeding sites for mosquitoes. The findings support global observations that similar challenges in other tropical regions, including Brazil and Indonesia, contribute to the spread of mosquito-borne diseases. Conclusion: This research highlights the critical role of environmental infrastructure in controlling vector-borne diseases and emphasizes the need for improved urban planning, integrated vector control strategies—including better drainage infrastructure, community education, and regular sanitation practices—to reduce mosquito breeding sites. Overall, it provides valuable insights for local authorities and public health organizations, offering a framework for targeted interventions in flood-prone areas. Novelty/Originality of this article: The novelty of this study lies in combining GIS spatial mapping with field surveys to directly link flood-prone urban infrastructure and environmental factors to mosquito habitat proliferation, providing a framework for targeted, location-specific public health interventions.
