Delivering the world's largest refuse-derived fuel facility in Jakarta
About PT Wijaya Karya (Persero) Tbk
Converting Waste into Energy
To address Jakarta’s significant landfill strain, the Jakarta government invested INR 1.2 trillion to construct the world’s largest refuse-derived fuel (RDF) facility. Led by PT Wijaya Karya (WIKA), the RDF processes up to 2,500 tons of waste per day into 875 tons of alternative fuel, reducing landfill waste by 30%, cutting waste transport by nearly half, and lowering carbon emissions by 100,000 tons annually. WIKA’s digital twin and IoT approach enabled predictive maintenance, reduced environmental risk, cut operational energy use by 15%, and set a new benchmark for sustainable urban development.
Streamlining Project Execution
With conventional methods proving time-consuming and inaccurate, WIKA leveraged Bentley’s integrated technology applications to establish a connected digital ecosystem and digital twin. Bentley solutions efficiently modeled steel reinforcement and structural components and created resilient designs capable of withstanding Jakarta’s seismic and geotechnical conditions.
Among the suite of Bentley solutions, Bentley’s iTwin Capture and iTwin IoT enabled visual site analysis and real-time environmental monitoring, while Cesium’s 3D visualization tools enhanced stakeholder engagement by providing immersive digital twin navigation.
Solutions Employed
Resilient Design and Analysis
Bentley AutoPIPE, STAAD, and ProStructures ensured reliable piping and structural systems, addressing geotechnical challenges through advanced modeling and analysis.
Optimized Planning and Operations
iTwin Capture, iTwin IoT, MicroStation, and OpenPlant accelerated site analysis, enabled real-time monitoring, and supported efficient 3D layout and modular mechanical design.
Streamlined Collaboration and Construction
ProjectWise centralized document management, while SYNCHRO enabled dynamic 4D construction sequencing.
Bentley software was strategically selected for its exceptional ability to integrate complex project workflows seamlessly…establishing a connected digital ecosystem that integrated all stages of the project, enabling real-time 3D modeling, 4D construction sequencing, and 5D cost management.
