Strategy for improving performances of WWTPs (Indonesia)

The West Java Provincial Government has inaugurated this community-based sanitation program in 18 Bandung regencies. Especially in the Citarum watershed, domestic contributes 68% to river pollution and has a water quality status for the last 10 years, showing 54% heavily polluted, 23% polluted, 20% lightly polluted and only 3% meet the quality standards. Efforts to improve the control of domestic wastewater pollution control the selection of technology that is influenced by many factors, so that an approach and practice is needed that pays attention to aspects. Neglasari Village, Banjaran District, Sayati Village, Margahayu District, and Cipaku Village, Paseh Sub- district, are sub-districts in Bandung Regency that have implemented the Sanimas program that has not met the standard requirements so that it is necessary to increase the installation of sustainable Sanimas wastewater treatment. Of the three locations of the Sanimas wastewater treatment plant (WWTPs) which are spread from upstream of the river, the location of the Sanimas wastewater treatment plant is in a densely populated area and an area prone to sanitation, also has a need for handling sanitation problems. This research was conducted using the SWOT method. SWOT analysis is carried out to obtain priority strategy recommendations for the improvement of the efficiency of the wastewater treatment plants.
