Abstract

Wastewater pollution in mining areas often occurs and becomes a problem in the surrounding groundwater aquifer system. One of the efforts to determine the distribution of wastewater pollution is to calculate the discharge and volume of wastewater. In this study, an open channel in the form of a ditch or commonly referred to as a drainage system is carried out to determine the total water discharge entering the research location, design the dimensions of the sump and design the optimal cross-sectional dimensions of the ditch to overcome the discharge of water that comes out and pollutes the environment. The method used is to make an open channel in the form of a trapezoid to be used around the andesite rock mining site which then drains the mine water to the setlingpond. Efforts to drain the water that has entered the main sump (mine dewatering system) are carried out by making wells, after which the waste water is channeled into the settling pond using a pump. From the results of the study, information was obtained that the total water discharge entering the sump was 235,175 m so that the volume of the sump made was 300 m with dimensions of top area: 20m x 10m, bottom area: 10m x 10m, with a depth of 2m for total water discharge for ditches. 0.0237 m so that the volume of the trench made is 0.228 m.

Abstract

Geothermal as an alternative energy source that is renewable and environmentally friendly has an important role in providing domestic energy needs. Exploration is one of the most important stages in the development of geothermal energy because it can minimize the risk at the stage of exploitation and development. Geophysical methods such as geomagnet and magnetotelluric are one of the methods used in exploration. Magnetic method can provide information on the description of rock demagnetization due to the presence of heat source. However, the magnetotelluric method will provide information about rock type resistance on geothermal fields. The existence of heat source using the geomagnetic method is represented by a low anomaly value as an indication of demagnetized rocks. The results of 3D inversion processing show a low value of type resistance in the area and form an updome. The correlation of the two results of processing the data can be seen in the southern part of the "X" geothermal field research area. Based on 3D Inversion modeling it can be seen the depth of the "X" Base of Conductor (BOC) geothermal system ranges from 1000 m to -800 m with resistivity ≤ 10 Ωm which is suspected as volcanic rocks. Geothermal reservoir is at a depth of 1000 m to -2000 m with a moderate resistivity of 40 - 60 Ωm which is suspected as an andesite volcanic rock, with temperature estimates ranging from 218o C to 255o C.

Abstract

Major and trace elements are valuable tracers for understanding the groundwater cycle. In groundwater flow path applications, these elements help delineate groundwater flow paths and identify areas of recharge and discharge. While in geothermal systems, the major and trace elements can indicate the contribution of deep hydrothermal fluids. In this study, we used major and trace elements as a groundwater tracer used to determine the origin of the Ain Al-Harrah hot spring in Saudi Arabia. Water sample data collection was taken from previous studies. In the data collection process, pre-washed 0.5 L polyethylene bottles were used to collect a total of five water samples from Ain Al-Harrah hot spring, Saudi Arabia. To prevent contamination, all samples were stored in a refrigerated room to maintain their chemical composition until the analysis process. The analytical results of the study showed that most of the hot water samples from Ain Al-Harrah hot spring, Saudi Arabia had been influenced by seawater which exceeded the limit value of x = 0.86 in the Na/Cl ratio. In addition, the value of y = 0.1 at the SO4/Cl ratio is the horizontal limit between the two. The interpretation of Cl against Cl/Li also confirms that the hot springs of Ain Al-Harrah, Saudi Arabia have been largely mixed with surface water. In addition, it is likely that the origin of the hot springs of Ain Al-Harrah, Saudi Arabia is also from seawater intrusion from red sea that has undergone mixing by meteoric water.
