In Indonesia, river water treatment is carried out by a Regional Water Company (PDAM) using a Water Treatment Installation (IPA) using physics and chemistry. The development of industry, trade, public markets, hospitals and increased community growth around watersheds enhances technological developments and dense settlements further increase the intensity of wastewater that brings pollutants to watersheds
