Abstract

The objectives of this reserch are to analysis the wastewater content of Ruminasiat RPH Pekanbaru City and compare it with the quality standard of waste water, namely PermenLH No.5/2014. Then analysis the quality of bore well water used by the community around the RPH Ruminansia and compare it with Permenkes No.416 / Men.kes / Per / IX / 20 and analysis the social economic impact of the community living around the RPH. The wastewater parameters measured were BOD, COD, TSS, fatty oil, organic nitrogen and pH. While the parameters of the wellbore water are color, odor, taste, TDS, pH, nitrate, nitrite, sulfate, and total coliform.The results of reseach show indicate that Ruminansia RPH wastewater is above the quality standard, except for the pH parameter. Meanwhile, drilled well water with a distance of approximately 5 meters does not meet the quality standards for clean water quality including total coliform and nitrate parameters, well water with a distance of 50 meters meets the requirements for clean water quality that can be utilized by the surrounding community.

Abstract

Perawang Barat village is a village that produces guava. This can be seen from the number of guava plantations found along the Jalan Perawang Barat Village. The guava plant looks lush with large, dense fruit. To get good quality fruit, it is necessary to maximize virginity, such as fertilizing and spraying pesticides. For fertilization, manure and chemical fertilizers are used. Manure comes from chicken manure and chemical fertilizers consisting of KCL, ZA and TSP, while as many as nine types of pesticides are used for pesticides with different functions. Fertilizers and pesticides are sources of Pb and Cd metals. Continuous use of fertilizers and pesticides in the long term results in the accumulation of Pb and Cd metals in the soil. The metal content of Pb and Cd in the soil of 7.71 ppm and 0.37 ppm resulted in the contaminated category of plantation soil. For the distribution of Pb metal in guava plants, the highest Pb content was found in the leaves followed by the stems and roots. The high content of Pb metal in leaves can be caused by many factors, among others, Pb metal comes from the soil which is transferred by roots, the use of pesticides and airborne particulates from motor vehicle fumes.

Abstract

Research on the abundance of plankton in Tebing Tinggi Island waters ecosystem, Meranti Island District, Riau Province was conducted in March 2017. The observations focused on the phytoplankton and zooplankton communities at ten stations. The variations in the abundance of plankton on average between the location groups were 4428 - 1716224 cells / m3 and 23938 individuals / m3 (67.73%) respectively for phytoplankton and zooplankton. The structure of the phytoplankton community was observed to be dominated by 5 diatoms. Coscinodiscus, Chaetoceros, Guinardia, Navicula, Pseudonitzshia. However, the predominant genus (> 10%) was Coscinodiscus with an abundance of 664,665.97 cells / m3 (99.47%) at station 5. Of the dinoflagellate group, only Ceratium clans with the highest abundance in station 7 of 324609 cells / m3 with location to the north of the Black Water Strait but still in normal condition. The macroplankton community structure is dominated by the Copepoda group especially Calanoida, Cyclopoida and Nauplius copepods with high densities of more than 50%. On the other hand, information about the mangrove forest ecosystem, and associated fauna in the ecosystem in the coastal area of TebingTinggi Island is still lacking. It is therefore necessary to conduct research that can be used as a basis to create a concept of management of marine resources in the region.
