Research on The Impact of Ciliwung River Water on The Surrounding Environment in The DKI Jakarta Area

Abstract

Abstract Ciliwung River flows through central Jakarta, passing through many residential and densely populated areas that cause heavy pollution in the Ciliwung River resulting from wastewater and solid waste. This research aims to know the water quality and pollution level in the Ciliwung river and determine the locations to install water quality online monitoring stations. The research method used in this study is to analyze the quality of water samples taken from several points of the Ciliwung River. The analysis results show that the Ciliwung river is highly polluted, especially in the areas going downstream of the river. In addition, the analysis results have determined 8 (eight) points/locations where the online water quality monitoring devices will be installed. Due to limited funds, however, only 3 (three) online monitoring devices are currently installed on site, representing upstream, middle, and downstream areas of the Ciliwung river.
