Abstract

The water crisis caused by floods and droughts has become an urgent problem in many regions worldwide. To address these challenges, the provision of empty spaces for rainwater harvesting has been a focus of attention as a potential solution to reduce the adverse impacts of these extreme phenomena. The objective of this study is to explore and propose effective strategies for optimizing the utilization of swamp lands for urban settlements in the Kertapati District of Palembang. The research methodology involves quantitative and qualitative analyses of hydrological data and land use on a property in Bukit Lama IB I, Palembang, South Sumatra, who has implemented the rainwater harvesting system. The hydrological data includes rainfall, roof catchment area, yard area, and rainwater accumulation rates. The results of the study show that the provision of empty spaces for rainwater harvesting can significantly reduce the risks of floods and droughts. When heavy rainfall occurs, this system can retain excess rainwater, thereby reducing surface runoff volume and slowing the flow towards rivers. Additionally, the harvested water can serve as a reserve to cope with drought during the dry season. The research also identifies several critical factors influencing the effectiveness of the rainwater harvesting system, including infrastructure design and surrounding land use. In this context, collaboration between the government, communities, and the private sector becomes crucial in implementing this system widely and sustainably. In conclusion, the provision of empty spaces for rainwater harvesting has proven to be an effective approach in reducing the risks of floods and droughts. Facing increasingly complex climate change, it is essential for communities, governments, and other stakeholders to adopt and implement this system as part of a comprehensive strategy to manage water resources sustainably and protect the environment.

Abstract

Both biotic and abiotic natural resources are the capital of the biosphere that may be exploited to meet human needs and promote human welfare. Global warming is a consequence of increasing environmental degradation. During photosynthesis, trees may collect carbon from the atmosphere, separate carbon from oxygen, and release oxygen back into the atmosphere. This investigation was conducted on post-coal mining reclamation land that PT. Bukit Asam (BA) restored in 2009, 2012, and 2015. This study employs a quantitative approach with a purposive sampling methodology. The utilized sampling intensities were 1%, 2.5%, and 5%. The plot chosen is a 20-by-20-meter rectangle. Carbon storage for the 2009 planting time averaged 40.57 tons per hectare over a total area of 32.89 ha. Carbon storage for the planting year of 2012 with a total area of 5.73 hectares and an average carbon storage of 26.37 tons per hectare. Carbon sequestration in 2015 with a total area of 3.90 hectares and an average carbon storage of 20.86 tons per hectare.

Abstract

Soil reinforcement method is one of the efforts to improve the technical properties of soil, such as soil bearing capacity, compressibility and permeability. The soil column method is one of the alternatives to improve physical properties by stabilization to improve soil bearing capacity. This research aims to increase the bearing capacity of the sole foundation by using the soil column method with a mixture of clay, 3% calcium carbide residue (CCR) and 12% Rice Hush Ash (RHA). This research was conducted experimentally in the laboratory using clay test specimens taken from Padamaran Village, OKI, South Sumatra Province, which were put into a test box with 1 m x 1 m x 1.4 m dimensions. The soil column modelling in this research used the soil column method. The soil column modelling in this study used a single column variation with a diameter of 3.2 cm with lengths of 40 cm, 46 cm, and 53 cm, respectively. The results are the clay foundation plate's ultimate soil bearing capacity (qu) before and after reinforcement with the soil column method. The bearing capacity of the footprint foundation plate on the largest clay soil occurs in the soil column variation with a length of 40 cm and a diameter of 3.2 cm, where the bearing capacity of the clay soil, which was originally 140 kPa increased to 21 kPa. In the experimental results of the loading test, the longer the column, the bearing capacity of the column decreases, which may have something to do with the slenderness factor of the column. The slimmer the column, the smaller the compressive strength of the column so that the tendency of the column to bend/collapse becomes greater. It happens because slender columns not only accept axial forces but also consider the addition of secondary moments due to the slenderness of the column. Then, the column cannot withstand the shear load due to the compacted clay soil around the column.

Abstract

Soil is the sub-base where the building structure is located, and the soil classification differs for each layer. There are many cases of failure in building construction due to poor soil, causing the building structure to crack and even collapse, which causes damage to the building - material and also dangerous for the building occupants. For this reason, soil investigation is significant to conduct before constructing the upper structure. One of them is the Sondir test. However, when the sondir data analysis of the qc and FR values are obtained, the Robertson et al method and the Schmertmann method will show the result of soil layer classification before construction begins. The research was located in a specific area, Bengkalis Road, Belawan Medan City, and North Sumatra. The research suggests that the soil in this location is predominantly soft with low shear resistance (qc ranging from 0 - 5 kg/m2), clay type, and depths of 6 - 7 meters. Due to these soil conditions, there are certain considerations and precautions that need to be taken into account if you plan to build on this land. One of them, soil improvement is given the soft and low shear resistance characteristics of the soil, its techniques may be necessary before construction. The suggested depth for the pile foundation is 10 - 20 meters. The actual depth would depend on factors such as the specific characteristics of the soil layers and the weight of the planned structure.

Abstract

The expansion of the area for the cultivation of rubber plants is hampered by the fact that the availability of mineral land has begun to decrease, so many have started to plant rubber on marginal lands such as peatlands. Peatlands for agriculture have many limiting factors, but if peatlands are adequately managed with drainage as well as ameliorant and fertilizing inputs, then peatlands have the potential to be used as agricultural land. However, information on research results related to rubber cultivation on peatlands is still very limited, so this study was carried out to observe the growth of rubber plants of PB 260 clones on peatlands. The research was carried out for five years in Sungai Rengit Village, South Sumatra, using rubber planting material in a polybag of PB 260 clones. The observations' parameters were stem girth, peat water level, and peat subsidence. The results showed that the growth of PB 260 clones during the immature plant period on peatland was not significantly different from rubber plants on mineral soils. At the research location, there was never any puddle and the peat water level was maintained because the drainage channels were well made. During the five years of observation, the highest peat water level occurred in the rainy season at 27 cm from the peat surface, while the lowest peat water level occurred in the dry season, which was more than 150 cm from the peat surface. The peat decline reached 25 cm during the five years of observation

Abstract

Palembang is a city that is frequently hit by floods, as the center of national activities which stimulates infrastructure development activities to support the economy and population growth, resulting in reduced urban green space and even the disappearance of the rivers that used to flow in most of Palembang City. Floods also occurred quite badly in the study area, namely the Lambidaro Sub-watershed, this study aims to identify the dominant factors that affect flooding and determine the area distribution based on the level of flooding vulnerability of study area. The methods used are Analytical Hierarchy Process analysis combined with Geographic Information System analysis using primary and secondary data from valid sources. Based on the results of the study, it was found that most of the study areas were in areas with a moderate level of flood prone with an area of 3146.50 hectares, then areas with a high level of flooding reached 1429.34 hectares, and finally, areas with a low level of flooding were only 347.65 hectares. The conclusion related to this research requires more attention from related stakeholders to areas that are included in the high flood-prone level, which mostly hit the Bukit Baru Village, Tanjung Barangan Street.

Abstract

Transportation serves as a vibrant sector for current civilization without which commerce, industrialization and societal development will be slowed or impossible, however, movement in space is not without its negative outcome, part of which is the generations of particulate. Objective of this research is to analyses Particulate Matter 10 (PM10) on roadside in Akure-south LGA of Ondo State, Nigeria. Traffic movement were collected along these corridors with the aid of counting and then disaggregating them into various categories such as passenger cars, heavy trucks, motorcycles and buses, while, CLJ-D Particulate counter (100-1million (PCS) Brand) was used in collecting PM10 particles generated along the traffic corridor. Finding show that the highest PM10 generated along the corridor is 1019 µg/m3 and the least generated PM10 is 312 µg/m3, while the corridor with the highest traffic is with 3973 pcu/hr and the lest has 1299 pcu/hr traffic volume. The research concluded that although the traffic volume is not exclusively the only contributor to PM10, in the selected corridor, there could also be some other contributors as the areas generating highest traffic movement do not mean highest PM10.

Abstract

The majority of coal mining is done using open pit mining techniques, which have an effect and present a challenge to changes in the chemical, physical, and biological characteristics of the soil. Restoration of ecosystems damaged by mining activities is prioritized through revegetation of reclaimed land. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how well Angsana plants develop faster in coal mining reclamation zones when they are planted directly. Field data and observations are utilized to assess the growth of plants that are directly planted in land reclaimed after mining activities. The growth parameters that are observed involve counting the number of leaves for plants using both seedlings and stem-cutting planting materials. The results showed that the average leaf growth in seedling planting material treated with bokashi fertilizer exhibited normal growth with more leaf characteristics compared to the control treatment. However, during the period of 2 to 4 weeks after planting, abscission occurred in leaf growth. The growth in the number of leaves on the seedling planting material was observed from 6 weeks after planting until the end of the study. Meanwhile, the average leaf growth on the planting material of cuttings occurred from 4 weeks after planting to 12 weeks after planting. However, slow leaf growth was noted in the planting material of cuttings treated with coal fertilizer at a dose of 1 kg/planting hole, where leaf growth occurred 11 weeks after planting.
