Abstract

Diseases can be spread directly or indirectly via unprocessed garbage. Garbage management is crucial if we want to reduce the negative effects that waste has on our health. The community of Pantai Gemi lacks waste-processing infrastructure. The Sanitation Service's inaccessible trash transportation system, which forces people to process waste on their own, is the root of this issue. One significant effort that can be made is to educate the community. This study sought to ascertain how public perception has changed as well as how much less inorganic and organic trash was being produced as a result of the extension intervention. A pre-test-post-test design with one group is used in this kind of research. All of the 2,179 family heads who make up the study's population make up its sample of 30 families. Seven respondents, according to data on changes in respondents' knowledge, report changes in their knowledge of waste management. The results of the normality test demonstrate the homogeneity of the waste generation statistics. The Dependent Sample T-Test method was used to examine waste generation. The analysis of the volume of inorganic waste yielded t = 0.00<0.05, indicating that intervention has an effect on decreasing the volume of inorganic waste in Pantai Gemi Village. The analysis of the weight loss of organic waste yielded t = 0.00<0.05, indicating that intervention has an effect on weight loss of organic waste in Pantai Gemi Village. Residents of Pantai Gemi Village should be given advice by the Department of Cleanliness and the Environment. For the Gemi Beach Village Apparatus to be able to connect the neighborhood's trash management efforts with relevant organizations. For Pantai Gemi Village inhabitants to become accustomed to and learn more about handling waste on their own.

Abstract

Air pollution and respiratory symptoms among operational staff at container terminal of PT. PELINDO Belawan might be caused by emission of PM₁₀ and CO from operational container trucks. This research aims to assess PM₁₀ and CO levels, also to investigate respiratory symptoms among operational staff at container terminal of PT. PELINDO Belawan. This is an observational research with cross-sectional design study. From a population of 699 individuals, 88 samples were obtained using purposive sampling technique. Air quality data was collected through direct measurements at three different locations, while respiratory symptoms data was gathered through staff interviews. PM₁₀ level at the container terminal had exceeded the standard limit, with the highest concentration recorded at the entrance gate, reaching 193 µg/Nm³. Whereas, CO level remained within the acceptable range. Trucks flow observation over a week revealed that the highest flow occurred on Tuesday, with 3,037 trucks, while the lowest flow was on Sunday, with a total of 223 trucks. Among the 88 respondents, 40 individuals (45.5%) experienced respiratory symptoms, with the most common complaint, reported by 25 individuals (65%), being runny or congested nose. Most respiratory symptoms occurred at unpredictable times, as reported by 35 individuals (39.8%). Container terminal of PT. PELINDO Belawan is recommended to enforce mask usage while working and respiratory health check-ups regularly for the operational staff to monitor respiratory health of the operational staff, as well as planting trees to mitigate pollutant levels in the air.

Abstract

Drinking water is vital for daily consumption and having physical qualities that meet health standards is critical. A study (Mason et al.) in 2018 at the University of New York showed that 93% of bottled drinking water contains microplastics. The study used 259 drinking water bottle samples, including those sold in Indonesia from 11 different brands and the size of microplastics found were between 6.5-100 micrometers. Furthermore, microplastics are also found in refillable gallon drinking water that could create microplastics fragments. This study was done to analyze the physical qualities and presence of microplastics in bottled and refillable gallon drinking water in Medan Selayang in 2023. This was a descriptive study with observational and interview methods. There were 12 water samples obtained from simple random sampling. Our study showed that the drinking water physical qualities has met the health standards (100%) as per the regulation of Ministry of Health (Permenkes No.2, 2023). However, the equipment condition in all drinking water depots did not meet the health standards (100%). The processing and cleaning in the drinking water depots have all met the health standards (100%). All samples from drinking water depots contained microplastics in the form of fibers and fragments per liter. It is recommended for water depots in Medan Selayang to pay more attention to the quality of drinking water through physical, chemical, and biological parameters, and to do periodical examination of the water through the public health office.

Abstract

Jus buah merupakan minuman olahan buah yang bergizi. Namun, jus bisa terkontaminasi Escherichia coli. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis higiene sanitasi, mengetahui pengetahuan, sikap, dan tindakan pedagang, serta mengetahui keberadaan Escherichia coli pada pedagang jus buah di Kecamatan Siantar Barat Tahun 2024. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif dengan desain cross-sectional untuk menganalisis higiene sanitasi, mengetahui tingkat pengetahuan, sikap, dan tindakan pedagang, serta uji laboratorium untuk mengetahui keberadaan Escherichia coli pada sampel jus, air, dan es dari pedagang jus buah di Kecamatan Siantar Barat. Pedagang yang menjadi responden ditentukan dengan metode total sampling yaitu sebanyak 21 orang. Sampel jus, air, dan es diperoleh dari 6 pedagang yang dipilih dengan metode purposive sampling. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa semua pedagang jus buah tidak memenuhi persyaratan higiene sanitasi makanan berdasarkan Permenkes Nomor 2 Tahun 2023. Hasil penelitian terkait higiene sanitasi makanan dan minuman menunjukkan 61,9% pedagang memiliki pengetahuan baik, 61,9% pedagang memiliki sikap cukup baik, 61,9% pedagang memiliki tindakan cukup baik. Hasil uji mikrobiologis menunjukkan bahwa 33,3% sampel jus dan 50% sampel es terkontaminasi Escherichia coli, sedangkan seluruh sampel air minum tidak terkontaminasi Escherichia coli. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa terlepas dari pengetahuan, sikap, dan tindakan pedagang yang secara umum cukup baik, pelaksanaan higiene sanitasi masih tidak memenuhi syarat dan ditemukan E. coli pada sampel. Pedagang disarankan untuk meningkatkan higiene sanitasi selama berjualan dan dan menjaga kebersihan diri dan peralatan selama berjualan.

Abstract

The demand for shoes must be met by the worldwide shoe manufacturing business, but the inhalation dangers associated with its chemical processes—which use benzene, toluene, and xylene (BTX)—raise health issues for workers. Initial surveys showed that most shoe manufacturing workshops do not have adequate ventilation. Most workers often complain of symptoms such as coughing, shortness of breath, and headaches. This study examined the relationships between worker symptoms and chemical levels at shoe factories in Medan, Indonesia, in 2017. This was an observational cross-sectional study. The total population was 72 workers in shoe workshops in the small industrial center area in Medan city. The sample size in this study was 47 people in seven shoe workshops. BTX concentrations were measured in seven workshops. Statistical tests used in this study were chi-square test and Fisher’s exact test with a significance level of p<0.05. According to the findings, the most common symptoms among employees were coughing (40.4%), dizziness (55.3%), and eye discomfort (55.3% of respondents). The range values were 0.09 ppm to 2.83 ppm, 1.20 ppm to 178.98 ppm, and 0.11 ppm to 50 ppm for benzene, toluene, and xylene, respectively. The two compounds most commonly exposed to levels exceeding the ACGIH (American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists) threshold level value were toluene (55.3%) and benzene (25.5%), according to ambient readings. Of the workshops that were inspected, only two (28.57%) had a functional ventilation system. Exposure to benzene exceeding the quality standard showed a significant association with dizziness (p = 0.003) and watery eyes (p = 0.003). Meanwhile, exposure to toluene exceeding the permissible limit was significantly associated with dyspnea (p = 0.005). Our research showed that over half of the workforce reported subjective complaints and that levels of benzene and toluene exceeded recommendations for occupational exposure.

Abstract

Tempat pembuangan akhir (TPA) sampah domestik dengan sistem penampungan terbuka sangat berisiko mencemari air tanah milik warga yang bermukim di sekitarnya melalui proses perlindian. Untuk mengetahui kandungan logam berat dalam air tanah di sekitar TPA, sebanyak 68 sampel air sumur gali (45 sumur Dusun I dan 23 sumur Dusun IV) dari Desa Namobintang Kecamatan Pancurbatu Kabupaten Deli Serdang, Sumatera Utara, telah dianalisis dengan inductively couple plasma atomic emission spectroscopy. Hubungan jarak sumur dengan konsentrasi kromium, merkuri, dan timbal diuji dengan Mann-Whitney, Spearman’s Correlation dan analisis regresi linier sederhana. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan konsentrasi kromium, timbal, dan merkuri (rerata ± deviasi standar, mg/L) masing-masing 0,036 ± 0,0096; 0,0003 ± 0,00018; dan 0,005 ± 0,0041 (Dusun I); 0,0370 ± 0,0115; 0,00026 ± 0,00013; dan 0,0070 ± 0,0069 (Dusun IV). Dari 68 sumur yang dianalisis, hanya ada 8 sumur yang konsentrasi timbalnya melebihi batas menurut Peraturan Kementerian Kesehatan Republik Indonesia Nomor 492/Per/IV/2010. Sementara itu, tidak ada korelasi jarak sumur gali ke TPA dengan konsentrasi kromium, merkuri, dan timbal dalam air sumur gali tersebut. Disimpulkan bahwa perlindian sampah di Namobintang tidak mencemari air sumur-sumur gali yang berjarak 84 meter atau lebih dari TPA. Dumping site of domestic wastes has potential risk to contaminate groundwater of the surrounding population through leaching process. To determine heavy metals (chromium, lead, and mercury) in groundwater at surrounding dumping site, a total of 68 dig well water samples (45 from Hamlet I and 23 from Hamlet IV) of Namobintang Village, Pancurbatu Sub-District of Deli Serdang Regency, North Sumatra, were analyzed using Inductively Couple Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy. The relationship between the dig well distance and chromium, mercury, and lead content was tested by Mann-Whitney, Spearman’s Correlation and Simple Linier Regression. The result of this study showed that chromium, lead, and mercury concentrations (mean ± SD, mg/L) were 0.036 ± 0.0096; 0.0003 ± 0.00018; and 0.005 ± 0.0041 (Hamlet I); 0.0370 ± 0.0115; 0.00026 ± 0.00013; and 0.0070 ± 0.0069 (Hamlet IV). Of 68 dig well water samples analyzed, there were only 8 water samples that had lead concentrations exceeding the drinking water limit of Peraturan Kementerian Kesehatan Republik Indonesia Nomor 492/Per/IV/2010. Meanwhile, there was no correlation of dig well distance to dumping site and heavy metal concentrations in dig well water. The study concluded that solid waste leachate in Namobintang did not contaminate the dig wells water located at 84 meters or more from the dumping site.
