Most anthropogenic activities can increase emissions and later on increase the concentrations of particulate matter in the atmosphere. When the COVID-19 pandemic spread in Indonesia, especially in Jakarta, the government implemented a Large-Scale Social Restriction program to prevent the spread of COVID-19 which resulted in activities such as in the industrial sector to education being temporarily closed and a policy of working from home was imposed, which resulted in a reduction in traffic density and industrial emissions in Jakarta. In this study, particulate pollutant emissions (PM2.5 and PM10) were calculated from sectors affected by the implementation of LSSR including the power generation, manufacturing industry, road transportation, and residential sectors in Jakarta in 2018-2020, which aims to see variation of changes in particulate emissions before and during the implementation of the LSSR and establishes key categories that can contribute to emission reductions. A ’top-down’ approach is used to calculate particulate emissions using the Atmospheric Brown Clouds Emission Inventory Manual framework,and using the emission factor method for area sources and mobile sources. The calculation results show that there was a 51% reduction in particulate emissions from the power generation sector due to a decrease in demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The manufacturing industry sector experienced a 33% reduction in particulate emissions due to the temporary closure of several large and medium industries. There was a 42% decrease in traffic density in 2020 resulting in a reduction in particulate emissions from road transportation activities, but still contributes to particulate emissions every year. The increase in fuel consumption that occurs in the residential sector is in line with the increase in the number of residents and the number of households in Jakarta, which results in an increase in particulate emissions every year.
