Abstract

Background: Indonesia, as the largest palm oil-producing country in the world, will also produce palm oil mill effluent (POME). POME production from palm oil processing is faced with many environmental problems from the release of emissions. The development of new renewable energy in Indonesia needs to be increased to reduce dependence on fossil energy and commit to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The purpose of this study is to discuss the potential for new renewable energy from the utilization of POME biogas energy and how the environmental impacts are caused as well as the opportunities and challenges of developing EBT from POME.  Methods: This research analysis method is LCA, and descriptive. Findings: Total CO2 emission (eq) of biogas production from POME is -24.62 Kg CO2 (eq), eutrophication is -0.2188 Kg PO43- (eq) and acidification is 0.00552 Kg SO2 (eq). Biogas production from POME in Jambi Province is not optimal and has not been used optimally, the process efficiency is low, and the profitability is low. Conclusion: There is a need for a concept to utilize biogas energy that does not only focus on electrical energy but also as a renewable energy source such as bio-CNG which has wider use. Novelty/Originality of this article: The novelty of this research lies in the comprehensive analysis of the utilization of Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) as a renewable energy source that is not only limited to electrical energy but also includes the potential conversion of POME into bio-CNG as a more flexible and sustainable alternative.

Abstract

Background: Life is supported by the ecology and natural resources that exist on earth. Continents and oceans are the two main natural resources that host life and ecosystems around the world. 75% of the Earth's surface is covered by ocean waters that are rich in marine life. Although the oceans are vast, this does not mean that they are limitless. Population growth and development have led to an increase in the demand for marine resources. Increased demand and over-utilization of marine resources have led to strong pressures that have led to a decline in marine ecosystem services. Karimunjawa is famous for the natural beauty of its underwater coral reefs. Methods: This study employs a qualitative approach using literature and secondary data to examine the impact of parrotfish populations on coral reef sustainability. Findings: Based on current conditions, excessive catching of parrotfish has a negative impact on the sustainability of coral reefs in Karimunjawa National Park. It is necessary for local communities to understand the importance of the role of parrot fish for the sustainability of marine ecosystems. Parrotfish spend 90% of their time eating algae attached to coral reefs. Damage to the coral reef ecosystem causes coastal erosion in Karimunjawa National Park. Therefore, the role of the community in managing parrotfish resources is very necessary so as not to threaten the population for the sustainability of the marine ecosystem. Conclusion: The results of this research illustrate the role of humans, namely the community and tourists who come to Karimunjawa to carry out activities to preserve damaged coral reefs and create new coral reef areas. Novelty/Originality of this article: There are also government policies that must be considered and implemented properly for the sustainability of coral reef ecosystems and the conservation of parrotfish in Karimunjawa.

Abstract

Background: Poaching of wildlife, including protected species, is on the rise, partly due to increased demand in the world market. Therefore, this journal aims to examine the problems faced by Indonesia in dealing with wildlife trade crimes that still occur frequently, as well as the implementation of Law Number 5 of 1990 related to law enforcement for wildlife protection in Indonesia. Methods: The research method used is qualitative, by collecting data from books, articles, news, and journals. The analysis involved theories, concepts, legal principles, and regulations in the Act, as well as related case studies in Indonesia. Findings: The results show that although Indonesia has Law No. 5 of 1990, it is still lacking in effectiveness in reducing poaching and trade of wild and protected animals. Law enforcement officials and related agencies face various problems in the implementation of law enforcement. Community involvement in the endangered species trade is a key driver of the illegal keeping trend in Indonesia. Conclusion: The rate of prosecutions and convictions of illegal keepers remains low, creating inequalities in sentencing and giving the impression that the risks of this illegality are relatively low compared to the financial gains possible. Novelty/Originality of this article: This article highlights that collaboration between the government, communities and non-governmental organizations can provide additional support in conservation efforts and handling illegal cases.

Abstract

Introduction: Water conditions that greatly affect the density of seagrass species are the substrate fraction and nutrient content of the base substrate where the seagrass grows. This is important because seagrass utilizes dissolved nutrients in the waters and nutrients on the substrate for the production process. This study aims to determine the relationship between nitrate and phosphate nutrients on the substrate with seagrass density in Pajenekang Island, Liukang Tuppabiring District, Pangkep Regency, South Sulawesi. Methods: Data sampling of seagrass was carried out at north and west station using the line transect method where the data taken included seagrass frequency, cover, and density. Meanwhile, data collection of nitrate and phosphate nutrients on the substrate used a random sampling method and analysis with macro nutrien determination Morgan-Wolf extract. Findings: The results of study indicated that the seagrass density values in Pajenekang Island have various values, with the average seagrass density at the west station are 275 stands/m² and 356 stands/m² at the north station. The nutrient content on substrate in Pajenekang Island is low range when compared the result of other studies. Nitrate (0.36 ppm) and phosphate (0.49 ppm) at west station was significantly lower (P<0.05) compared to nitrate (0.49 ppm) and phosphate (0.64 ppm) at north station. The results of the Pearson correlation analysis among nitrate content and seagrass density on Pajenekang Island showed a negative relation with moderate correlation (-0.496*). Meanwhile, Pearson correlation analysis of phosphate content showed a negative relation by showing no relation (-0.166). This can be explained that there are other factors that effect on seagrass density in research location. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the seagrass density at Pajenekang Island varies. The average seagrass density at the western station is 275 individuals/m², while at the northern station, it is 356 individuals/m². Novelty/Originality of this article: The novelty of this research lies in analyzing the relationship between nitrate and phosphate nutrient content in the substrate and seagrass density on Pajenekang Island, which has not been widely studied in this region.

Abstract

Introduction: The Meliaceae family is a group of flowering plants that are widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions around the world. Some of its members have important economic value. Based on initial surveys in the Bogani Nani Wartabone National Park area, especially the Hungayono tourist attraction area of Gorontalo Province, it is known that there are various species of Meliaceae familli plants. However, it has not been identified what types of Meliaceae plants are and how the value of diversity index in the tourist attraction area. Methods: The purpose of this study was to determine how the diversity of Meliaceae plant species in the Hungayono tourist attraction area of Gorontalo Province. Data collection techniques using exploratory or cruising methods using sampling techniques Probability Sample. Findings: The results of the study found 10 species of Meliaceae familli plants in the Hungayono tourist attraction area. The index value of plant diversity of Meliaceae familli found in the Hungayono tourist attraction area is 1.91 with moderate criteria which indicates a fairly stable ecosystem condition. Conclusion: these findings provide valuable baseline data on the Meliaceae family in the region, contributing to future conservation and biodiversity management efforts in the area. Novelty/Originality of this article: The novelty of this research lies in the first recorded identification and diversity assessment of Meliaceae species in the Hungayono tourist attraction area.
