Abstract
In Indonesia, river water pollution is a major environmental issue, with contamination from industrial waste, sewage, agricultural runoff, and other sources degrading water quality and harming aquatic ecosystems. To examine the identification, detection, and mitigation technologies employed for marine pollution in Indonesia, a chronological review and analysis were conducted using a systematic search of 90,893 peer-reviewed Scopus indexed journal articles on the SCOPUS database. From 2015 to 2024, research on river water pollution management strategy encompassed a wide range of topics, including water pollution control, industrial area, pollution control strategy and policy. Result of the survey shows that effective management strategies are needed to prevent and control river water pollution. Specific management strategies must be tailored to each river based on the types and sources of pollution. An integrated approach, combining infrastructure upgrades, land use management, regulations and enforcement in addition to public outreach, is needed. With concerted efforts to control pollution and restore degraded rivers, water quality can be improved to support healthy rivers and communities.
