Abstract

The noise intensity in the workshop area, specifically in the dynotest room at PT. X, records an average of 103 dB(A). This noise originates from assembly, maintenance, and equipment testing activities. The high noise levels and sustained intensity can significantly increase blood pressure and pulse rates in workers who do not use hearing protection devices (HPDs) while working. This study aims to evaluate the impact of noise on the blood pressure and pulse rates of workers in the workshop area, particularly in the dynotest room at PT. X. The research, which employed an observational approach with a cross-sectional study design, was conducted from December to May 2024, involving 40 workers exposed to noise in the dynotest room at PT. X. Data collected included noise measurements, blood pressure, and pulse rates, which were then analyzed using logistic regression tests. The results showed that the average noise level in the dynotest room was 83.5 dBA, while the peak noise level reached 117.8 dBA. Statistical analysis indicated a significant value (p = 0.001) for the relationship between noise exposure and the blood pressure and pulse rates of workers at PT. X, suggesting a significant increase in these parameters due to noise exposure. Recommendations were made for the company to monitor the health of workers to identify potential health issues arising from noise exposure.

Abstract

The increasing birth rate and number of toddlers each year have led to a rise in diaper usage, resulting in significant diaper waste. Improper management of this waste can cause environmental problems. One potential solution is utilizing diapers as raw material for liquid organic fertilizer production. This study aimed to determine the differences in bacterial starter addition and fermentation duration of liquid organic fertilizer from diapers in terms of nitrogen and potassium content. A quasi-experimental design with a post-test only control group was applied. The study focused on the hydrogel in the diaper’s inner layer. The independent variable was fermentation duration (12, 15, 18, and 21 days), while the dependent variables were nitrogen and potassium content, each with six replications. Data were analyzed using One Way ANOVA. Results showed average nitrogen content for fermentation durations of 12 days (0.34%), 15 days (0.43%), 18 days (0.53%), and 21 days (0.64%). The lowest nitrogen content was found at 12 days (0.32%), and the highest at 21 days (0.66%). Average potassium content for fermentation durations was 12 days (0.27%), 15 days (0.36%), 18 days (0.43%), and 21 days (0.54%). The lowest potassium content occurred at 12 days (0.25%), and the highest at 21 days (0.56%). In conclusion, there were significant differences in nitrogen and potassium content across fermentation durations. Further studies are recommended to optimize bacterial starter acclimatization, monitor temperature and pH, and apply sampling techniques according to national standards (SNI).

Abstract

Workshops are significant sources of hazardous wastewater, classified as B3 waste due to the presence of toxic compounds that can endanger the environment and human health. This study aimed to design and evaluate a treatment system for workshop wastewater using sedimentation, grease trap, and adsorption processes. An experimental pretest–posttest with control group design was employed, involving 24 samples and six repetitions. Data were analyzed using the Kruskal–Wallis test to determine differences in oil and grease reduction across various contact times with activated carbon. Statistical analysis showed a p-value of 0.413 (>0.05), indicating no significant difference among contact time variations. The most effective treatment, combining sedimentation, grease trap, and adsorption, achieved an oil and grease concentration of 3.7 mg/L with a 15-minute contact time and 1000 mL activated carbon, corresponding to a 99.96% removal efficiency. This contact time was considered optimal when factoring in both performance and manufacturing cost. The findings demonstrate that while contact time variation did not significantly affect removal efficiency, the integrated process effectively reduced oil and grease to levels compliant with environmental standards. The developed system can serve as a low-cost alternative for small-scale workshops to manage liquid waste, minimizing environmental and health risks. Future studies are recommended to evaluate additional parameters such as total suspended solids (TSS), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and biological oxygen demand (BOD) for a more comprehensive assessment of treatment performance.

Abstract

This study analyzes global trends related to the impact of air pollution on brain health using the bibliometric method. Data was collected from the Scopus database with the keyword "air pollution AND brain health" in the 2013–2023 time frame, resulting in 200 publications that were analyzed using Harzing's Publish or Perish and visualized with VOSviewer. The analysis shows that the United States, China, and several European countries dominated the research contribution, with a significant increase in publications in 2020 and 2021. Keyword visualization identified key themes, including the impact of fine particulate matter (PM2.5) on the risk of neurological disorders such as dementia and Alzheimer's, as well as the link between air pollution and brain inflammation and mental health. Although this issue is increasingly relevant globally, similar research in Indonesia is still very limited, especially regarding the direct impact of air pollution on brain health. These limitations create significant opportunities for further studies focusing on Indonesia's population, especially in cities with high pollution levels. This study provides in-depth insights into the direction of global research and highlights the need for further studies in Indonesia, which can contribute to the development of evidence-based environmental health policies to reduce the impact of pollution on public health.

Abstract

Cempaka District in Banjarbaru City faces a real challenge in meeting clean water needs, due to the river's unfavorable physical characteristics, namely cloudy, brownish water, and frequent flooding and sand and diamond mining activities in the surrounding area. This condition not only reduces the quality and suitability of the water, but also increases health risks due to high levels of sediment, organic matter, and pathogenic microorganisms. The situation is further exacerbated by the limited supply of clean water suitable for consumption, so that the community still relies heavily on river water for daily needs. This study aims to test the ability of a combination of synthetic filters with ultrafiltration (UF) technology to treat Cempaka River water to meet health requirements and support increased access to clean water for the local community. The results show that the use of a combination of DHUSF and UF filters significantly reduced the turbidity of Cempaka River water with an efficiency of more than 95%. Turbidity parameters after treatment were consistently below the established quality standards (<3 NTU). This combination effectively removes suspended and colloidal particles, resulting in clearer and safer water. This system has the potential to be applied at the household or community level, particularly in areas with high levels of river water turbidity. Further studies could test other water quality parameters to optimize the system's implementation.

Abstract

Microsleep is one of the factors that causes a decrease in vigilance that can have a serious impact on occupational safety, especially in industrial sectors with high risk levels such as heavy equipment and vehicle operations. This condition occurs suddenly and often escapes the detection of conventional surveillance systems, thus increasing the likelihood of work accidents. These challenges are even greater in a work environment with high operational burdens and rotating work patterns that affect the quality of sleep of workers. This study was conducted to evaluate the application of biometric-based detection technology and wearable devices combined with fatigue prevention policies. The study used a systematic literature review method on 25 primary articles published in the period 2020–2024 in a number of indexed international journals. The results of the analysis showed that the integration of real-time biometric monitoring with flexible work policies can increase the accuracy of microsleep detection by up to 85% and help reduce the potential for work accidents. This integrated approach is expected to be able to encourage the transformation of the occupational safety system to be more proactive, adaptive, and data-based, so as to create a safe and sustainable work environment.

Abstract

Solid medical waste management at Bengkalis District Health Centers still faces various obstacles, including limited facilities, lack of compliance with standard operating procedures, and minimal trained human resources. This study aims to analyze the condition of solid medical waste management at Bengkalis District Health Centers and formulate effective strategies in its management. The research method used was a qualitative approach with data collection through in-depth interviews and observations at Health Centers in the area. The results of the study indicate that solid medical waste management has not been running well, although the health centers have collaborated with third parties in waste management, there are still various problems such as delays in waste transportation, inappropriate storage, non-compliance with standard operating procedures (SOP), limitations in facilities and infrastructure, and health workers' awareness of the importance of waste management was also still low. The recommended strategies include increasing the capacity of health workers through training, optimizing waste management facilities, and strengthening regulations and supervision so that medical waste management can run according to established standards. The implementation of this strategy was expected to make the management of solid medical waste in health centers more efficient, safe and environmentally friendly, so that the risk of pollution can be minimized.

Abstract

Providing access to sanitation is one of the global and national commitments in order to improve people's welfare. Inadequate sanitation results in a number of health risks such as diarrhea, malnutrition, stunted growth, and several other health problems. The purpose of this study was to identify the accessibility of proper sanitation for the people of Tapin Regency. The scope of this study was the condition of sanitation facilities and infrastructure available in homes in Tapin District. The methods used in this research were interviews, field observations, and documentation. Data sources were determined using purposive sampling techniques. Based on the findings in the field, some people still practice open defecation even though they have a toilet at home. A more economically viable alternative for the community for a sustainable sanitation system is to concentrate on safe fecal disposal for those using latrines rather than building a new large-scale wastewater system. There are 5 indicators studied to determine the level of access to community sanitation, namely the availability of handwashing with soap and clean water facilities, access to proper sanitation, open defecation behavior, access to household wastewater management systems, and access to septage management systems. This study highlights the importance of using comprehensive sanitation indicators beyond basic latrine access, especially in rural areas where data is limited, local governments should prioritize investment in fecal sludge treatment infrastructure and strengthen community engagement in sanitation behavior change programs.

Abstract

One common form of pollution is noise exposure, which, when exceeding the threshold of 85 dB(A), may increase the risk of hypertension. Hypertension is defined as systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg, with several risk factors including age, length of employment, smoking habits, sleep duration, obesity, and diabetes. This study aimed to analyze the risk factors of hypertension among workers in the wood furniture industry. An observational analytic study with a cross-sectional approach was conducted involving 100 male workers selected through purposive sampling. Statistical analysis was performed using the chi-square test. The highest measured noise intensity was 95.3 dB(A), with an average of 87.3 dB(A). The mean systolic and diastolic blood pressures were 127.5 mmHg and 82 mmHg, respectively. Bivariate analysis showed that noise intensity (p = 0.021; PR = 3.619) and obesity (p = 0.005; PR = 4.334) were significantly associated with the incidence of hypertension. It can be concluded that high noise exposure and obesity are risk factors for hypertension among wood furniture industry workers.

Abstract

River water pollution has become a major concern, particularly in regions where human activities occur without proper regulation. This study investigates heavy metal contamination in the Batang Masumai River, Merangin Regency, Jambi Province, where local residents conduct mining near the riverbanks. Water samples were taken from upstream, midstream and downstream, then analyzed using Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS) to detect concentrations of seven metals: mercury (Hg), cadmium (Cd), nickel (Ni), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), and lead (Pb). Heavy metals  are among the most dangerous pollutants due to their toxicity, persistence, and impact on human health Pollution levels were evaluated through the Heavy Metal Pollution Index (HPI) and compared with SNI 6242:2015 and WHO 2022 standards. The results showed that cadmium, nickel, iron, and mercury exceeded allowable limits. The HPI results reflect a serious level of water pollution. Based on the 2015 SNI standard, the HPI scores are 214.45 for downstream, a striking 57893.41 for midstream, and 120.61 for upstream. Using the the WHO 2022 criteria, the values are 486.03 (downstream), 4.186.55 (midstream) and 267.83 (upstream). Except for the upstream based on SNI 6242:2015, all areas show high contamination levels (HPI ≥ 200), highlighting a concerning environmental issue. Mercury and cadmium, known for their high toxicity and bioaccumulation potential, were the most concerning. These findings underscore the urgent need for remediation efforts, continuous environmental monitoring, and increased public awareness to protect aquatic ecosystems and ensure the safety of water resources for surrounding communities.
