Abstract

Microplastics have been identified in rivers that supply raw water, particularly the Batang Merangin River, which supplies 90% of the treated water for Perumda Tirta Merangin. This situation has raised concerns about microplastic contamination in treated water. This study aims to describe the attributes of microplastics at the Water Treatment Plant (WTP) of Perumda Tirta Merangin, Merangin Regency. The study used a quantitative descriptive and experimental approach, examining water samples from each treatment unit (raw water intake, coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, and reservoir) at the Ecoton Laboratory in Gresik. The results identified three categories of microplastics: fibers (47 particles), filaments (38 particles), and fragments (5 particles), for a total of 90 particles. The dominant color of microplastics was blue (39%), with sizes ranging from 2 mm.

Abstract

The escalation of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, particularly carbon dioxide (CO₂), has become a critical global climate change issue with significant implications for Indonesia. This study quantifies CO₂ emissions from household activities in Aur Kenali, Jambi City, covering electricity consumption, LPG usage, transportation, and waste management. Using a descriptive quantitative approach with 100 respondents, the data were analyzed based on the 2006 IPCC guidelines.The results reveal a total emission of 47.02 tons CO₂-eq from the sampled households. The primary contributor is electricity consumption at 23.14 tons CO₂-eq (49.21%), followed by transportation at 15.39 tons CO₂-eq (32.73%), waste management at 5.35 tons CO₂-eq (11.38%), and LPG usage at 3.14 tons CO₂-eq (6.68%). These findings indicate that electricity usage is the dominant emission source in the study area, highlighting the urgent need for enhanced environmental education to foster more sustainable community behavioral changes.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the magnitude and spatial distribution pattern of carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions generated from household activities in Aur Kenali Village, Telanaipura District, Jambi City. Emissions were estimated from electricity consumption, LPG usage, transportation activities, and household waste generation. A quantitative approach was applied through questionnaires to representative households. Emission calculations were conducted using standard emission factors. Spatial analysis employed Geographic Information System with the Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) interpolation method to model emission distribution. The results indicate that electricity and LPG are the largest contributors to household emissions. The IDW map reveals emission concentrations in densely populated residential zones and areas with high economic activity. The study provides spatial information to support local mitigation policies.
