Abstract

This study aims to analyze the weight of waste, recycling potential, and processing of banana peel organic waste into eco enzyme as an effort to control environmental pollution. The research was conducted in August-November 2023 in the Pasar Minggu Beach tourist area, Ambon City. The data collection method used direct observation in the field. Banana peel waste data was collected for 4 days, then weighed for further processing into eco enzyme for 3 months. Waste generation data and recycling potential were calculated using the formula set by the National Standardization Agency. The results showed that the weight of banana peel waste generated was 32.2 kg with 195 visitors. The average waste generation obtained was 0.17 or 0.2 kg/person/day, meaning that every visitor who comes to the tourist attractions produces 0.2 kg of banana peel waste. Banana waste that can be recycled is 30 kg and produces 112.5 l of ready-to-use eco enzyme solution. Processing banana peel organic waste into eco enzyme solution contributes ecologically and economically positively. Keywords: Banana peel; Eco enzyme; Organic waste; Tourism; Waste generation.

Abstract

The black sea cucumber Holothuria atra was used in integrated aquaculture with sea bass juveniles (Lates calcarifer) as the lowest and highest trophic level organism, alongside the seaweed Gracilaria sp. as an organic extractive organism. Therefore, this study aimed to assess the potential of integrated aquaculture combined with sea bass juvenile and seaweed to support the growth of the black sea cucumber. The experiment was carried out using a completely randomized design with 3 fish density treatments (50, 100, and 150 fish/m3), each integrated with 10 bags of seaweed and 4 individual black sea cucumbers. The study was conducted for 8 weeks and the fish were fed with trash fish at 10% of body weight. Water quality parameters were measured in situ every day except for TOM, ammonia, and nitrate which were measured at the beginning, middle, and end of the study. The results showed that the specific growth rate of the black sea cucumber ranged from 0.31-0.45%/day. The black sea cucumber was able to use the feed and metabolic waste produced by the culture of sea bass, showing the highest growth rate at a density of 100 fish/m3. Water quality parameters remained in ranges considered suitable for growth, except salinity. Furthermore, the black sea cucumber was found to have a strategy for adapting to fluctuations in salinity, as shown by the ability to survive at 15 ppt.Keywords:Sea bass juvenilesSeaweedSalinityTOM

Abstract

Seaweed is one of the leading types of aquaculture commodities with competitive market economic value in both domestic and export markets. This is partly because in addition to functioning as food, it is also due to the diversification of seaweed products that have. Wael Hamlet is one of the hamlets located in Piru Village, West Seram District. The majority of people in Wael Hamlet work as fishermen and cultivators, both fish farming and seaweed cultivation. Wael Hamlet is one of the E. Cottoni producing areas in West Seram Regency. The existing condition of seaweed cultivation in Wael Hamlet is currently experiencing a decline and even the fishermen do not produce seaweed. The conclusion of this activity is that the eucheuma cotonii seaweed cultivation business in the hamlet of Wael, West Seram Regency has decreased production due to disease attacks and pests in the form of baronagn fish and also turtles.

Abstract

ABSTRAKTeluk Kotania di Kabupaten Seram Bagian Barat memiliki potensi besar untuk pengembangan budidaya rumput laut, namun keberlanjutannya sangat bergantung pada kualitas lingkungan perairan baik secara fisik, kimia, dan biologi. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis parameter kualitas air yang mendukung budidaya rumput laut di wilayah tersebut. Pengambilan data dilakukan pada bulan Mei 2025 di 12 stasiun penelitian, meliputi parameter fisik, kimia, dan biologi melalui pengukuran in-situ dan uji laboratorium. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar parameter kualitas air seperti suhu (29,63–30,04 °C), salinitas (33,46–33,85 ppt), pH (7,06–7,65), kecerahan (6–18 m), oksigen terlarut (9,12–12,38 mg/l), COD (5,20–10,70 mg/l), dan BOD (3,40–8,70 mg/l) masih berada dalam kisaran optimal dan di bawah ambang batas baku mutu. Kecepatan arus tercatat antara 3,60–24,34 cm/detik, sementara kedalaman perairan berkisar antara 6–24 meter. Konsentrasi nitrat (0,015 mg/l) dan klorofil-a (0,18–3,73 µg/l) tergolong rendah, mengindikasikan kondisi perairan oligotrofik. Sebaliknya, ortofosfat tercatat cukup tinggi (0,0–0,18 mg/l) di beberapa lokasi, diduga akibat aktivitas antropogenik. Secara keseluruhan, hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa Teluk Kotania masih layak untuk pengembangan budidaya rumput laut berdasarkan parameter kualitas air secara fisik, kimia, dan biologi.Kata Kunci: kualitas air, rumput laut, Teluk Kotania, budidaya lautABSTRACTKotania Bay in West Seram Regency has great potential for developing seaweed culture, but its sustainability is highly dependent on the quality of the aquatic environment, both physically, chemically, and biologically. This study aims to analyze water quality parameters that support seaweed culture in the area. Data was collected in May 2025 at 12 sampling stations, covering physical, chemical, and biological parameters through in-situ measurements and laboratory analysis. The results indicate that most water quality parameters such as temperature (29.63–30.04 °C), salinity (33.46–33.85 ppt), pH (7.06–7.65), transparency (6–18 m), dissolved oxygen (9.12–12.38 mg/l), COD (5.20–10.70 mg/l), and BOD (3.40–8.70 mg/l) are within optimal ranges and below the regulatory thresholds. Current velocity ranged from 3.60–24.34 cm/s, and water depth varied between 6–24 meters. Nitrate (0.015 mg/l) and chlorophyll-a (0.18–3.73 µg/l) levels were low, indicating oligotrophic conditions. Conversely, orthophosphate concentrations were relatively high (0.0–0.18 mg/l) at several locations, likely due to anthropogenic activities. Overall, the analysis suggests that Kotania Bay remains suitable for seaweed culture based on its physical, chemical, and biological water quality parameters.Keywords: water quality, seaweed, Kotania Bay, marine aquaculture

Abstract

Control of gonad maturation and spawning is a major problem in the development of shrimp and lobster cultivation. Reproductive technology in hatching this type of crustacean has not experienced significant development. Progesterone is a precursor of estrogen in vertebrates, which is also found in crustaceans and other invertebrates. While several crustacean reproductive hormones have been characterized, the identity and function of other reproductive hormones are still under investigation. In hormone analysis, the use of the Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) method continues to grow, both for research purposes and clinical applications. This study aims to evaluate the concentration of the hormone progesterone in Panulirus versicolor lobsters of different sizes with a body weight range of 300-750g which are caught in the wild using the ELISA method. The hormone progesterone is measured in the ovaries, hepatopancreas and hemolymph. This research uses descriptive analysis methods. From using the ELISA method, the results of the parallelism test showed that the test sample curve was parallel to the standard curve. Absorbance and standard value recovery tests showed that the measured concentrations of the progesterone hormone in Panulirus versicolor lobsters were acceptable because they had an average recovery value of 98%. The precision testing results of the ELISA kit used show that the test prescription is good and acceptable based on the percentage of coefficient variation (%CV) from QC1 and QC 2 (<15%). The concentration value of the progesterone hormone in P. versicolor lobsters shows that there is a difference in concentration depending on body size, where in lobsters with a body weight of 650-750g, the concentration of the progesterone hormone in the hepatopancreas, ovaries and hemolin is 1.059 ng/ml, 0.357 ng/ml and 0.042 ng/ml. while at lower body weights, namely 300-350 grams, the concentration of the hormone progesterone is 0.753 ng/ml, 0.181 ng/ml, 0.010 ng/ml.
