Trends of Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) Research in Indonesia: A Systematic Review
Abstract:
This study provides an overview of water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) research trends in Indonesia from 1975 until April 2021. The systematic review compiled 272 articles related to the Sustainable Development Goals 6.1 and 6.2 in Indonesia, which were published in the Web of Science and Scopus databases. The results showed that the water-related topic (41%) was discussed more often than sanitation (22%) or hygiene (13%). Furthermore, the social theme (39%) was dominantly found in all these articles, mostly finding determinants of WASH-related behavior. However, few WASH implementation studies or behavioral change interventions were recorded in Indonesia, suggesting a gap between science and policy or implementation. On the other hand, hygiene-related topics (14%) and WASH-related financial themes (6%) were the least studied in Indonesia. Combinations of topics (23%) and themes (15%) were also often conducted in Indonesia, suggesting that WASH researchers started to recognize the need to analyze WASH problems holistically, i.e., from multiple perspectives. In addition, the distribution of WASH research was still dominated in the central part of Indonesia, whereas the WASH-related problems, i.e., poor WASH services, and behavior, often occur in this area. This study also offers some research gaps, both in terms of topics, themes, and regional distribution, that need to be considered for the design of future WASH research in Indonesia.

Trends and Perspectives In Industrial Water Treatment
Introduction
Water is vital for industry, both at the national and at the international level. The water technology of the industrial sector differs fundamentally from that of the municipal sector as a function of the specific needs of each sector. In the industrial sector, these requirements vary strongly between industries and locations so that standardized solutions are not possible (cf. Fig. 1). Rather, the different needs call for a combination of methodical/technical know-how and customized process technology. In view of the close interaction between production and water technology, integrative technologies and management systems are called for. An integrated, sustainable industrial water management curbs the dependency on natural water resources and other influencing factors such as energy or the regulatory framework. It is therefore not only relevant for the domestic market, but also boosts the export of technologies, equipment, engineering and other services and enhances the competitiveness of German companies in the international markets. The Process Net Subject Division “Production-integrated Water and Waste Water Technology” examines the state of-the-art of science and technology and new perspectives in the field of production-integrated (waste) water treatment. The division’s aim is to integrate the industrial utilization of water into the entire water economy with consideration of sociological effects and to consistently improve its ecological and economic efficiency. The Subject Division offers a forum for the interdisciplinary exchange of ideas and experiences among experts from industrial production, process development, environmental technology, plant engineering and construction as well as from engineering contractors, associations and the relevant authorities. In the process, new needs for R&D and application are identified and the technology transfer from scientific research to commercial implementation is promoted. r aus der Wissenschaft in die industrielle Praxis gefördert.
