| Summary: | The continuous growth of Jakarta's population has led to an increasing demand for
water across various urban activities. The limited availability of raw water sources
in Jakarta necessitates alternative water sources, such as reclaimed water, to meet
the city's water needs. This study analyzes the factors influencing public perception
and acceptance of reclaimed water in Jakarta through a survey of 416 urban
residents. The findings indicate that the majority of respondents were already
familiar with the term "reclaimed water." Respondents tended to accept the use of
reclaimed water for non-potable and non-domestic purposes (70.9% approval) but
were more reluctant to accept its use for potable purposes (38.4% approval). The
level of skin contact with water significantly affected public acceptance of
reclaimed water. The presence of microorganisms, chemicals, and odor in
reclaimed water were the primary concerns causing hesitation among respondents.
Based on multiple linear regression analysis, the factors influencing public
acceptance of reclaimed water were domicile, socio-economic status, potable water
source, duration of residence, hesitation, and public trust in stakeholders. |
