Radiological Detector Aircraft for Marine Life's Sustainability in Supporting Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Abstract

Sustainable development goals (SDGs) aim to protect oceans by ensuring their sustainable use. This includes safeguarding marine and coastal habitats, reducing marine pollution, and minimising ocean acidification. This chapter seeks to promote the implementation of SDGs by evaluating the capability of Indonesia's marine patrols, as the world maritime axis, to address the issues presented by the use of nuclear energy as an alternative source of energy for maritime patrol. Data was gathered using the qualitative method from nuclear specialists and maritime patrol officers. After data collection reached saturation, data were codified and analysed. The Ishikawa Model is also deployed to portray stakeholder analysis structure. The research revealed the significance of Indonesia's ability to identify nuclear material as a part of the world maritime axis. The risk of failure or leakage in the water is a challenge of marine life's resilience. The research is expected to contribute to the body of knowledge by addressing how nuclear energy can be used to enhance maritime patrol capabilities.
