Abstract

The tempeh industry in Indonesia is a traditional household industry. The production waste is generally discharged directly into water bodies without prior treatment. This study aims to identify the level of pollution caused by tempeh liquid waste physically and chemically. Analysis was carried out with laboratory tests to determine the levels of pH, TSS, BOD, COD, colour, and odour produced. This study was conducted at 3 large tempeh industries in Bekasi from January to April 2025. The results of laboratory tests showed that the chemical and physical parameters did not meet the quality standards of the Minister of Environment Regulation No. 5 of 2014. COD measurements found 1 point that did not meet the quality standards of 629.47 mg / l, TSS inlet 221 mg / l and TSS outlet 65 mg / l, the highest BOD 22.50 mg / l due to the addition of chemicals to tempeh to accelerate fermentation. This study uses inferential statistical analysis. The pH parameters for both the inlet and outlet are <6.5. Discharge of waste directly into rivers results in an unpleasant odour from fermented soybeans and organic matter. Tempeh wastewater is recommended for processing organic fertiliser or biogas from anaerobic fermentation.

Abstract

Workers represent a population at risk of exposure to air pollutants in the workplace, rendering them vulnerable to various health impacts, particularly respiratory disorders. This condition is attributed to prolonged inhalation exposure over time. This study aims to assess the magnitude of health risks associated with occupational exposure to air pollutants and to identify respiratory complaints among workers. This study employed a descriptive quantitative design, utilizing risk assessment methods to estimate the exposure risk levels of carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen dioxide (NO₂), ozone (O₃), and total suspended particulate (TSP) in the workplace. The study population comprised production workers, selected via simple random sampling. The risk estimation indicated that the concentrations of CO, O₃, and TSP, were within acceptable safety limits. However, exposure to NO₂ exceeded safe thresholds, presenting non carcinogenic risks to workers with an average body weight of 66,48 kg, a daily exposure duration of 7,583 hours, and an annual exposure frequency of 236,99 days over a 12,85-year period. A significant proportion of workers reported respiratory symptoms and had previously been diagnosed with acute respiratory infections (ARI). Consequently, consistent use of personal protective equipment (PPE), particularly masks, is highly recommended to mitigate exposure to airborne pollutants.

Abstract

Background: If not properly managed, coal mining activities can lead to significant damage to the earth's surface. Acid water, often referred to as acid mine drainage, typically forms during both active and inactive mining operations. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the acid mine drainage treatment process with a quicklime neutralizing agent and was carried out to assess the reuse of acid mine drainage by the community. Methods: The research was carried out by taking samples of 200 liters of acid mine water released from the mining pit. This research utilized experimental methods to determine the neutralizing dose, stirring speed, and stirring time produced from mine acid. Results: The results of the research indicate that the dose of additional lime required is 0.145 grams of quicklime for 1 liter of acid mine water. It can be interpreted that for 1 m3 of wastewater, 0.145 kg of quicklime isrequired. As a result, with a wastewater flow rate of 700 m3/hour, 101.5 kilograms of quicklime is needed per hour. Processing acid mine drainage requires rapid stirring with a minimum speed of 100 rpm by stirring all the quicklime. Conclusion: The mixing process can be optimized by increasing the length of the acid mine drainage flow when lime is added before entering the settling pond. An analysis of the physical parameters revealed that the wastewater met quality standards.

Abstract

ABSTRACT The repeated use of cooking oil among street food vendors remains a major concern in food safety due to the formation of toxic compounds that may harm consumer health. This study aimed to analyze the behavior, knowledge, attitudes, and factors influencing the repeated use of cooking oil among street vendors in Jatikramat Village, Jatiasih Sub-district, Bekasi City. A mixed-method approach with a cross-sectional design was employed. Quantitative data were collected using questionnaires from 101 vendors through total sampling, while qualitative data were obtained from in-depth interviews with three informants. The findings revealed that most vendors demonstrated poor practices, with 53.5% reusing cooking oil more than four times. The majority of respondents had higher education (66.3%), good knowledge (70.3%), and positive attitudes (56.4%), yet healthy practices were not consistently applied. Qualitative data indicated that vendors with sufficient knowledge tended to limit oil use to a maximum of three times, while those with limited knowledge reused oil more than four times, believing it had no impact on taste and being unaware of health risks. Economic reasons emerged as the main factor for oil reuse, as vendors sought to reduce production costs and maximize profit. This study concludes that there is a gap between knowledge, attitudes, and actual behavior, with economic constraints being more influential than education or knowledge. Continuous education, training, and supportive policies are needed to reduce the repeated use of cooking oil and protect public health. Keywords: Repeated Cooking Oil, Street Food Vendors, Behavior, Knowledge, Attitude, Mixed Method.  ABSTRAK Penggunaan minyak goreng berulang kali pada pedagang kaki lima masih menjadi isu penting dalam keamanan pangan karena berpotensi menghasilkan senyawa toksik yang membahayakan kesehatan konsumen. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perilaku, pengetahuan, sikap, serta faktor-faktor yang memengaruhi penggunaan minyak goreng berulang pada pedagang kaki lima di Kelurahan Jatikramat, Kecamatan Jatiasih, Kota Bekasi. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan mixed method dengan desain potong lintang (cross-sectional). Data kuantitatif diperoleh melalui kuesioner yang melibatkan 101 pedagang dengan teknik total sampling, sedangkan data kualitatif didapatkan melalui wawancara mendalam terhadap tiga informan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa mayoritas pedagang memiliki perilaku penggunaan minyak goreng yang kurang baik, yakni menggunakan minyak lebih dari empat kali (53,5%). Sebagian besar responden memiliki pendidikan tinggi (66,3%), pengetahuan baik (70,3%), serta sikap positif (56,4%). Namun, perilaku sehat belum terwujud secara konsisten. Hasil kualitatif mengungkapkan bahwa pedagang dengan pengetahuan baik cenderung membatasi penggunaan minyak maksimal tiga kali, sedangkan pedagang dengan pengetahuan rendah menggunakan minyak lebih dari empat kali karena tidak mengetahui dampak kesehatan. Faktor ekonomi muncul sebagai alasan utama penggunaan minyak berulang, karena pedagang berusaha menekan biaya produksi dan meningkatkan keuntungan. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa terdapat kesenjangan antara pengetahuan, sikap, dan perilaku nyata pedagang, di mana faktor ekonomi lebih dominan dibandingkan faktor pendidikan maupun pengetahuan. Intervensi berupa edukasi berkelanjutan, pelatihan, serta kebijakan pendukung diperlukan untuk mengurangi praktik penggunaan minyak goreng berulang dan melindungi kesehatan masyarakat. Kata Kunci: Minyak Goreng Berulang, Pedagang Kaki Lima, Perilaku, Pengetahuan, Sikap, Mixed Method
