Abstract

Rapid industrial development is one of the leading causes of environmental degradation. The textile industries and the domestic activities in Majalaya District produce wastewater directly discharged into the Cikakembang River. As a result, the Cikakembang River’s water quality has decreased to the point that the water quality cannot be used for daily needs. This study modeled three main parameters in water quality modelling, namely Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). Using MATLAB, the three-water quality governing equations originating from the Advection-Dispersion Equation were solved using the Runge Kutte-4 discretization scheme. The numerical modelling was carried out along 2.36 km of the Cikakembang River. All water quality coefficients, such as the DO Saturation (DOsat), the Reaeration Rate (ka), the Dispersion Coefficient (D), the Deoxygenation Rate (kd), and the Decomposition Rate (kc), for the Cikakembang River were estimated using equations developed by existing studies. The estimation of ka and D coefficients requires hydraulic parameters, which in this study were estimated using the HEC-RAS simulation. Meanwhile, kd and kc values were obtained from the calibration and verification process. The Relative Root Mean Square Error (RRMSE) objective function was used to evaluate the results of water quality modelling at three sampling points. In the calibration process, the resultsof water quality modelling produced RRMSE values for the DO, BOD, and COD parameters of 1.99%, 0.36% and 0.92%, respectively. Meanwhile, for the verification process, the RRMSE values for the DO, BOD, and COD parameters are 1.95%, 1.02% and 1.86%. All water quality parameters produce small RRMSE values in the calibration and verification processes. Hence, the water quality model created has good accuracy and stability.

Abstract

The poor condition of the Citarum River demands more significant pollution control. One alternative for controlling pollution can be limiting the amount of wastewater entering one of the tributaries of the Citarum River, namely the Cikakembang River. This study is a follow-up study that will model heavy metal parameters in the Cikakembang River. Data collection was carried out six times, where the heavy metal parameter detected was copper. Numerical modelling for copper parameters was carried out using MATLAB software with the Runge Kutte-4 discretisation scheme. The study location covers 2.36 km upstream of the Cikakembang River, with 12 textile industry wastewater disposal points. Numerical modelling results for copper parameters show a settling rate of heavy metal particles of 40 day-1, with a maximum RRMSE value of 9.97%. Combining the water quality models for organic and heavy metal parameters created, pollution control simulations can be run in both seasons. The pollution control scenario aims to find the maximum amount that enters the Cikakembang River without passing the class four river water quality standards. The selection of the standard is based on the use of Cikakembang River water, namely for irrigation purposes. Based on the results of pollution control simulations, the pollutant carrying capacity for BOD, COD and copper parameters in the Cikakembang River is 199.43 kg/day, 1103.80 kg/day and 4.06 kg/day, respectively.

Abstract

Sawahlunto Conservation Park is an area developed for plant protection and tourism activities. The Sawahlunto city was initially built to support coal mining activities, so the conservation park has several basins that can be used as flood parking ponds. These basins can be used to meet the needs of watering plants. The study is used to examine the water availability and flood analysis at the area to be built.  The conservation park is divided into three areas based on the four reservoirs location: the Kandih Park area, the northern and the southern part of the parking area. In this study, hydrologic and hydraulic analyses will be conducted. In the hydrological analysis, simulations of reservoir capacity are carried out to describe the amount of water that can be used every month. In the hydraulic analysis, SWMM program is used to model rainwater as surface runoff, estimate the planned channel dimensions, and reservoir flood volume. The reservoir simulation results show that the water needs for watering plants can be fully met. However, the available storage ponds have a much smaller volume than the rainfall volume, so the pond will run off throughout the year. The SWMM modeling results show that the channel dimensions from 0.2 m x 0.2 m to 0.5 m x 0.5 m, can drain flood discharge with a two-year return period, with a freeboard five-year return period. This study can be used as a guideline for developing conservation areas in reusing the potential of ex-mining land.
