Abstract

Global environmental monitoring shows that conditions in developing countries are increasingly worrisome. Water pollution is a problem that often occurs. There are 82% of 550 popular rivers in Indonesia that are damaged by pollution. Rivers are synonymous with irrigation sources, household water supplies, industrial needs, and others, so they cause serious hygienic and ecological problems. However, water's current existence is based on environmental disasters, land use, geopolitical conflicts, pollutants, and population growth. This paper aims to determine the efforts to control pollution in dealing with river pollution problems legally and provide recommendations for a River Management Strategy based on experts' opinions in the field of water resources as an alternative to pollution control. The method used is descriptive qualitative to describe efforts to control river pollution and river management strategies. This research is focused on the problems of the Sikendil River and the Selilin River in Klepu Village, Pringapus District, Semarang Regency. The results showed that controlling water pollution by stakeholders requires good coordination and facilitation from related agencies, starting from improving the social, technological, regulatory, and institutional foundation and the ecological foundation of the industry and surrounding communities so that river pollution problems can be resolved. Environmental policies in the form of law enforcement and stakeholder support are needed to improve the environment and oversee the course of environmental problems. The most dominant and most important aspect is social institutions with a value of 0.427, and the most dominant alternative is community participation with a value of 0.546, so that the aspect of social institutions with alternative community participation can be the most prioritized strategy to be applied in cases of legal river pollution.

Abstract

Soil quality is the capacity of land to provide functions needed by humans and ecosystems over a long period of time. Soil quality indicators are physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil that describe the condition of the soil. Biopore infiltration holes are a technology used to increase water recharge, utilizing the role of soil fauna and plant root activities. This study aims to determine the quality of soil on residential land as a result of the application of biopore holes. The research was conducted on residential land in Ciherang Hamlet, Ciputri Village, Cianjur Regency from April to October 2023, using experimental methods and laboratory analysis. Data analysis using the LandPKS application and Shanon Wiener formula and Lowery scoring method. The results showed that the dominant soil color was dark. pH and C-Organic soils are interconnected. The soil pH obtained ranges from 5.6 - 7.6 with an average of 6.87 which indicates an acidic pH and safe for macrofaunal life. C-Organic soil has increased with moderate category after average, C-Organic has increased because pH has increased. Macroorganisms have increased the number of families, from 6 families to 11 families with a medium diversity index and a high evenness index. Biopore holes filled with organic waste from food waste affect soil quality.

Abstract

The increasing growth and development of population is directly proportional to the increase in activities carried out by humans. Human clothing and lifestyle needs have increased very rapidly which has had an impact on the development of the textile industry, one of which is the batik industry. Many fans of batik production produce waste water which can pollute the waters around residents. This can have a detrimental impact on the environment because there are organic compounds that can cause environmental pollution. The coconut fronds that are often found are not used optimally. Therefore, researchers used coconut fronds made into charcoal as an adsorbent material for processing batik liquid waste. The research will be carried out for 1 month, from June to July 2023. Analysis of the quality of liquid waste will be carried out at the Baristan Laboratory. This type of research is experimental research. The research design uses 25 ml of batik waste treated with 3 grams of activated charcoal, 3.5 grams. , and 4 grams for 40 minutes. Data analysis uses the Effectiveness Formula. Data shows that activated charcoal is effective in reducing oil and fat in batik liquid waste. The higher the weight of activated charcoal for filtration, the higher the reduction in oil and fat levels. However, this does not apply to the COD and pH parameters. Activated charcoal can reduce COD levels with an average effectiveness of 20.32% mg/L, pH with an average of 12% and fatty oils with an average of 66% mg/L.

Abstract

Adsorption involves the attachment of molecules or ions onto the surface of an adsorbent. Activated charcoal is effective in adsorbing organic substances, odors, colors, and various pollutants from water. In this process, toxic particles adhere to the charcoal, reducing pollutant concentrations and improving water quality. This study examines the effectiveness of coconut shell activated charcoal in adsorbing laundry wastewater, specifically focusing on reducing BOD, COD, and coliform levels. A quantitative approach using a completely randomized design (CRD) was employed, with varying charcoal weights (1 g, 2 g, and 3 g) to assess its impact on water quality. Each treatment used 100 ml of laundry wastewater. The results showed that activated charcoal from coconut shells was effective in reducing BOD and COD levels, but not in lowering coliform concentrations. The third treatment (3 g) yielded the most significant BOD reduction, with a final concentration of 20 mg/L and an effectiveness of 96.66%. For COD, the third treatment resulted in a concentration of 71 mg/L and an effectiveness of 93.07%. However, coliform levels remained unchanged in all treatments, exceeding 160,000/100 mL, far above the standard maximum of 3000/100 mL, with 0% effectiveness in reducing coliform.

Abstract

Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is a popular freshwater fish with promising development prospects due to its clean white flesh, high nutritional content, and affordability. However, feed costs in tilapia farming pose challenges, particularly with rising prices of fish meal, the primary protein source. Maggot (Hermetia illucens) and taro leaves (Colocasia esculenta) offer an alternative protein source for tilapia feed due to their high protein content. This study, conducted over 30 days in Marga Agung Village, South Lampung, tested the effects of different feed mixtures using a completely randomized design (RAL) with 4 treatments and 3 repetitions. The study involved 120 tilapia, evaluating parameters such as weight gain, specific growth rate (SGR), absolute length, feed conversion ratio (FCR), temperature, and pond clarity. Data analysis via ANOVA and Duncan's test showed the highest results in the control group (P0), with an average weight of 8.43g, an SGR of 28%, and an FCR of 1.42. Treatment P2 (50% maggot and 50% taro leaves) produced comparable results, with an average weight of 8.09g, an SGR of 27%, and an FCR of 1.44. Environmental conditions remained stable across treatments, with pH and water clarity showing minimal variation. These results suggest that a 50% maggot and 50% taro leaf mixture could be a viable alternative to fish meal for tilapia feed without significant differences in growth performance compared to the control.

Abstract

Way Belerang Simpur is a sulfur-containing hot spring that serves as a popular tourist destination for hot spring baths. This study aims to evaluate the water quality of the spring using physical, chemical, and biological parameters. Water samples were taken from three points: the source (Point 1), the bathing area (Point 2), and the downstream flow (Point 3). The parameters analyzed include temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen (DO), odor, hydrogen sulfide (H2S), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), and total coliform bacteria. Standard testing methods such as mercury thermometers, pH meters, spectrophotometry, and SNI protocols were used. Results show that temperature and odor meet national standards for safe water, but pH levels were highly acidic, exceeding acceptable limits for public bathing. DO levels were adequate to support aquatic life, while BOD, COD, and H2S were within acceptable limits. The biological analysis revealed very low levels of total coliform bacteria, making the water microbiologically safe. Overall, the water quality at Way Belerang Simpur is suitable in terms of contamination levels but presents risks due to its high temperature and low pH, especially for prolonged exposure.

Abstract

The West Coast is a coastal area rich in marine resources, including seaweed. The utilization of seaweed by the local community remains limited, primarily sold at low prices. The predominant seaweed species found in the West Coast area are Sargassum polycistum and Ulva lactuca. These two types of seaweed can be utilized as nutrient-rich, environmentally friendly organic fertilizers that benefit plants. This study aims to evaluate the quality of fertilizers derived from Sargassum polycistum and Ulva lactuca through the composting method. The data collected include physical and chemical observations. Physical quality observations cover aroma, color, texture, pH, and temperature, conducted from the seventh day until the compost is mature. Chemical quality tests of the organic fertilizer include measurements of total nitrogen (N), total phosphorus (P), total potassium (K), and organic carbon (C). The results were then compared with the compost quality standards outlined in SNI 19-7030-2004. The findings indicate that the best physical and chemical quality organic fertilizers meeting SNI standards were produced from the compositions of 5 kg Ulva lactuca + 700 mL EM4 and 5 kg Sargassum polycistum + 700 mL EM4.

Abstract

The construction of the Trans-Sumatera Toll Road, part of Indonesia’s National Strategic Projects (PSN), offers significant economic benefits but also poses environmental challenges, particularly air pollution from construction activities. This study evaluates air quality deterioration due to heavy machinery use, material transportation, and excavation. A quantitative approach was employed through field surveys, environmental monitoring, and laboratory analysis. Air quality monitoring was conducted at eight locations using Graseby Dust Samplers and Gas Impingers to measure PM₁₀, PM₂.₅, SO₂, NO₂, CO, and HC, following Government Regulation No. 41/1999. Results indicate that PM₁₀ levels (22 µg/Nm³) remained within regulatory limits, while CO (578 µg/Nm³) and NO₂ (35.6 µg/Nm³) fluctuated with construction intensity. Mitigation strategies such as water spraying and project vehicle management effectively reduced dust and gas emissions. Continuous monitoring is essential to minimize air pollution impacts. This study provides empirical data to support sustainable infrastructure development, balancing economic benefits with environmental conservation.

Abstract

Urban air pollution is a growing environmental concern, particularly in rapidly developing cities where vehicular emissions contribute significantly to deteriorating air quality. This study investigates the correlation between stomatal density in jackfruit (Artocarpus heterophyllus Lamk.) leaves and air quality in Bandar Lampung, focusing on two high-traffic urban locations: Sultan Agung Street and Pangeran Emir M Noer Street. Using a quantitative approach, leaf samples were collected through purposive sampling and analyzed for stomatal density using light microscopy (400× magnification). Concurrently, air quality was measured by assessing carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NOx), and particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) concentrations, which were compared against National Ambient Air Quality Standards (PP No. 41 of 1999). The results indicate a positive correlation between traffic intensity and stomatal density, suggesting that jackfruit trees increase stomatal density as an adaptive response to vehicular pollution. However, while enhanced stomatal density may improve CO₂ uptake for photosynthesis, excessive stomatal opening could lead to higher pollutant absorption, necessitating stomatal closure mechanisms during peak pollution periods. The findings confirm that jackfruit trees can serve as effective bioindicators for urban air pollution monitoring, given their physiological adaptability and widespread distribution in tropical urban settings. This research underscores the potential of plant-based bioindicators in sustainable air quality assessment and urban environmental management strategies.

Abstract

Access to clean water and adequate sanitation is essential for public health and environmental sustainability. This study analyzes the relationship between water access, sanitation levels, and public health in Tanjung Karang Pusat, Tanjung Karang Timur, and Tanjung Karang Barat. Using a cross-sectional approach, data were collected through field observations, interviews, and questionnaires from 70 households. The findings indicate that 59% of households have safe drinking water access, while 7% still rely on unprotected sources and 4% have limited access to piped networks. In terms of sanitation, 34% of households have safe sanitation, while 56% have basic but self-sufficient access without regular desludging. However, 4% use shared toilets, 4% have direct waste disposal into the environment, and 1% still practice open defecation (BABS), posing serious health and environmental risks. The study highlights the disparities between urban and rural areas, where inadequate sanitation and limited water access increase the risk of waterborne diseases, economic losses, and environmental degradation. Addressing these challenges requires infrastructure improvements, public awareness campaigns, and policy interventions to ensure universal access to clean water and proper sanitation. Investment in sanitation and hygiene infrastructure is crucial to reducing disease burden, enhancing productivity, and supporting Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 6) on clean water and sanitation.
