Abstract

Today, many wetlands have been converted into agricultural, industrial, and residential areas. This conversion of land functions creates new problems for the environment and human, one of which is land fires. The results of land fires can also cause other problems that results in losses in various fields, such as human health, the economy, and other fields. The emergence of smog as a result of land fires can cause respiratory problems, disruption of the transportation system, conflicts between neighboring countries, and the others. South Sumatra Province is one of the largest contributors to the haze as a result of land fires, especially its wetlands. Ogan Ilir Regency is one of the areas in South Sumatra Province which has extensive wetlands and fires frequently occur. Fires are caused by triggering factors, one of which is natural factors such as a prolonged dry season, availability of water supply, and intensity of rainfall. This study is an analytic descriptive study that aimed to provide an overview of environmental conditions on land, the majority of which are wetlands which experienced fires in Ogan Ilir Regency in 2019. The environmental conditions studied included soil and vegetation types. The data obtained will be displayed through tables and graphs, then interpreted and analyzed descriptively. The type of data used is secondary data in the form of a report by the Regional Disaster Management Agency Ogan Ilir Regency related to land fires in OI Regency and processed using the Geographic Information System (GIS) application. The results of the analysis show that the area of land fires that mostly occurred in North Indralaya District was 382,7 hectares with a total of 144 hotspots. The burnt area was dominated by peat soil (53%) and scrub vegetation (43%).

Abstract

Background: Industrial development continues to increase every year. CV X is a company in the manufacture of cauldrons and prickles which produce aluminum dust contaminants. Workers who work more than eight hours and lack of air exchange can affect lung function. This study aims to analyze the effect of aluminum dust exposure on lung function disorders in workers at CV X. Methods: This type of research was quantitative study with cross-sectional design. Sampling using simple random sampling technique according to inclusion and exclusion criteria with 40 respondents. Data analysis by using univariate and bivariate analysis with Chi-Square and Kolmogorov-Smirnov tests. Results: The results showed that there was no effect of aluminum dust exposure on lung function disorders (p = 0.166). However, there are 65% of workers who have lung function disorders, consists of 42.5% obstructive workers, 22.5% restrictive workers, and none of which have impaired combined lung function, while 35% of workers is normal. The majority of aluminum dust levels in the work environment are above the Threshold Value (5 mg/m3) of 72.5%. Conclusion: It is known that workers who experience obstruction problems of 51.7% are workers that exposed to aluminum dust above TLV (5 mg/m3) and there are 24.1% of workers experiencing restriction disorders exposed to aluminum dust above TLV. To prevent workers from experiencing lung function disorders due to exposure to aluminum dust, it is necessary to control efforts in the form of additional ventilation to reduce dust levels in the work environment.
