ABSTRACT
This paper presented sustainable wastewater management system analysis using combination of Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) for the city of Jakarta, Indonesia. This research collected data samples from 270 respondents on SEM, and from 20 stakeholders and decision makers in waste- water system while using AHP. This stakeholders and decision makers were representing Jakarta Environmental Protection Agency, Ministry of Public Works-Cipta Karya, Jakarta Public Works Department, Jakarta Wastewater Company, and experts from environmental engineering consultants. The result of this research showed that infra- structure development strategy for sustainable wastewater system could be reached by using off-site system, or at least the synergy between on-site and off-site system.
Key words: AHP; SEM; sustainable; wastewater development 1. INTRODUCTION
Jakarta is the capital city of Indonesia with area of 65.000 Ha and population of 9.738.880. Like other metropolitan in developing countries [1], Jakarta is dealing with wastewater management problems. Jakarta’s city development along with population growth and urbanization and lack of city planning on wastewater infrastructure develops into surface water and groundwater pollution [2].
Jakarta currently has been served by sewerage system with grants from central government through Loan International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD). Those infrastructure and its facilities has been built in 1992-1996. With < 3% service coverage including Setiabudi and Tebet District, Master Plan of Wastewater and Drainage for Jakarta city has been done with JICA Assistance, and become the guideline for next development program (1991 - 2010). But, until 2011 there has been no significant development progress, and review master plan of waste water system (2012-2050) for Jakarta has been done also with JICA [1].
This study examined the indicators and variables which influenced the sustainability of provision of wastewater infrastructure and facility in theory, then compiled into theoretical model which will be proven by field data and become data-basis model. Those variables will analyzed by Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) [12, 13].
After that it will be analyzed using the sustainable hierarchical model that fits AHP basic [15]. Infrastructure strategy of wastewater system will be combined from the influence value of each variable on SEM and the priority of every criteria on AHP based on the opinion of the decision makers on local and central government.
2. METHODOLOGY
This research is first conducted by sampling 270 consumers of off-site system for the SEM method [10].
Another sampling is conducted to 20 decision makers in Jakarta wastewater system by filling AHP questionnaire [15]. Rating each sustainable criteria consistency ratio of samples, priority and best solution available for sustainability can be analyzed from hierarchy model and sampling result. Line coefficient is also analyzed from SEM [11, 14].
Model for sustainability on SEM can be seen as follow:

Fig. 1. Model for sustainability on SEM
Hierarchy model of sustainable wastewater system is built based on sustainable criteria such as Technology Selection [1, 2, 6, 7], Financial [4, 7, 8], Environmental [4, 5, 7, 8], Institution [6, 7, 9], and Socio-Cultural [3, 5, 7].
These criteria then sorted based on priorities as follow:

3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION3.1. Infrastructure Development Strategy For Wastewater System Using Sem Method Result of sustainability model on SEM using AMOS 20 program can be seen as follow:
Table 1. Test result of sustainability model
Criteria Cut-off Value Calculation Result Remarks
Chi-Square Expected less 210.437 2 with df = 137 is 165.316 (Good Enough)
Significance Probability ≥ 0.05 0.000 Not Good
RMSEA ≤ 0.08 0.045 Good
GFI ≥ 0.90 0.927 Good

CMIN/DF ≤ 2.00 1.536 Good
TLI ≥ 0.95 0.987 Good
CFI ≥ 0.95 0.990 Good
Table 1 shows good result on 6 criteria, which means there is match between theories with the data.
Therefore it can be said that the model could be accepted with no modification are required.
Model of sustainability can interpret each and every line coefficient. Line coefficient is obtained as hypothesis in this research, which is presented in structural equation as follow:
= . + . + . + . + . (1)
Detail of the line coefficient test can be seen as follow:
Table 2. Result for line coefficient on the sustainability model
Variable Line Coefficient C.R. Prob. Remarks
Technology Selection (Ts) Sustainability (S) 0.156 2.505 0.012 Significant
Financial (F) Sustainability (S) 0.146 2.485 0.013 Significant
Environmental (E) Sustainability (S) 0.197 2.484 0.013 Significant
Institution (I) Sustainability (S) 0.203 2.460 0.014 Significant
Socio-Cultural (SC) Sustainability (S) 0.128 1.974 0.048 Significant
Based on table 2, the interpretation of each line coefficient can be described as follow:
For Technology Selection (TS), Financial (F), Environmental (E), Institution (I), and Socio-Cultural (SC) have positive and significant effect on Sustainability, it can be seen from the line coefficient value (0.128 – 0.203), the C.R. value (1.974 – 2.505), and the significances of probability (p) value (0.012 – 0.048) which are less than the determined significance level (α) of 0.05.
3.2. Infrastructure Development Strategy For Wastewater System Using Ahp Method
AHP modeling techniques consists of some steps involving building hierarchy model, rating model criteria, determining each matrix’s inconsistency ratio, paired comparison, and determining criteria priority and solution.
AHP sustainable hierarchical model criteria rating are conducted using pairwise comparison matrix. The value on pairwise comparison matrix comes from questionnaires sampled to decision makers in wastewater system. Saaty rating scale is used to rate sampled questionnaire result.
Due to the necessity of only one answer from each paired comparison matrix in AHP, then geometric average is taken from sampling answers
= ( ∙ ∙ … ∙ ) (2)
= Comparison value on questionnaire = , , … ,
= Number of samples
= Average value of comparison between criteria I and j with n samples
An example result of geometric average calculation of sustainable criteria in paired comparison matrix is shown as follow:

Consistency is a vital element in AHP method. Sampling result is valuable only if it’s value from inconsis- tency ratio (after converted into paired comparison matrix) is equal or lower than 0,1. Values with inconsistency ratio higher than 0,1 is deemed inconsistent and not used in further equation.
Inconsistency ratio equation is conducted using Expert Choice 11 program. The example of inconsistency ratio of sustainable criteria equation using Expert Choice 11 program is shown as follow:
Fig.3. Inconsistency ratio of sustainable variable equation result output
The final result of AHP method is determination of global criteria (the most important criteria) to achieve sustainable wastewater system. The most important criteria on sustainable wastewater system is visible in priority rating shown on Expert Choice 11 output as follow:
Fig. 4. Sustainable Criteria Priority Output
Sustainable wastewater system priority can also be determined using Expert Choice 11 program. The result is shown as follow:

3.3. Infrastructure Development Strategy for Wastewater System Using Combination of SEM and AHP Method
SEM approach shows that Technology Selection (0.156), Financial (0.146), Environmental (0.197), Institution (0.203), and Socio-Cultural (0.128) have positive and significant effect on Sustainability. And from AHP we knows that the rate on each criteria, Technology Selection (0.261), Financial (0.243), Environmental (0.204), Institution (0.127), and Socio-Cultural (0.165). The combination between SEM and AHP are simply the multiplication between line coefficients on SEM with criteria rate on AHP, the result will shows as follow:
Table 4. Priority of strategy using combination of SEM and AHP
Variable Line Coefficient Criteria Rate Combination of SEM and AHP
Percentage of Combination
Technology Selection 0.156 0.261 0.040716 24.9358 %
Environmental 0.197 0.204 0.040188 24.6125 %
Financial 0.146 0.243 0.035478 21.7279 %
Institution 0.203 0.127 0.025781 15.7892 %
Socio-Cultural 0.128 0.165 0.021120 12.9346 %
Combination approach on SEM and AHP prioritize the Technology Selection on 24.9358 % then Environmental factor with 24.6125 %. The best solution for infrastructure development strategy for sustainable wastewater system can be reach by using off-site system, or at least the synergy between on-site and off-site system.
4. CONCLUSION
Result with SEM approach shows that Sustainability affected by institution with line coefficient value of 0.203, Environment with 0.197, Technology Selection with 0.156, Financial with 0.146, and Socio-Cultural with 0.128. While the AHP approach shows the criteria rate on each variable are Technology Selection (0.261),

Financial (0.243), Environmental (0.204), Socio-Cultural (0.165), and Institution (0.127). The infrastructure development strategy for sustainable wastewater system using combination approach of SEM and AHP prioritize on variable technology selection and environmental. And the most important criteria to get sustainable wastewater system are technology selection and financial. Meanwhile the best solution for infrastructure development strategy for sustainable wastewater system can be reached by using off-site system, or combination between on-site and off-site system.
