Abstract

The high risk of mercury pollution in the Ratai watershed due to artisanal and small-scale gold mine activities in Pesawaran District, Lampung, Indonesia, was evaluated. Studies are needed to improve the understanding of the effect of heavy metal pollution, especially mercury (Hg), in soil and river water along the watershed because of erosion. The Universal Soil Loss Equation (USLE) integrated with Geographic Information Systems (GIS) model was used to analyze the transport of mercury (Hg) from nonpoint source pollution loads to the Way Ratai River using rainfall-based erosion. Soils and river water samplings were conducted in 2020. Biophysical conditions, the land cover, and the rainfall data of the Ratai watershed were also taken into account. The results indicated that Hg concentrations in the soil and the river water were high, ranging from 0.26-28.9 mg L-1 and from 0.08-14.1 mg L-1, respectively. The reason for the high Hg contents in the soils and the river waters was the high erosion rate in the watershed. As the study area was characterized by high rainfall erosivity and low to high soil erodibility, the erosion-caused Hg contamination in soil and water can be significant if no conservation strategies are developed.

Abstract

Gold processing at artisanal and small-scale gold mining (ASGM) in Indonesia is inherently risky due to the high severity and likelihood of accidents causing serious injury. The objectives of this study were to identify hazards, assess risks, and determine risk control measures in the ASGM location at Imandi Village, East Dumoga District, Bolaang Mongondow Regency, North Sulawesi Province. The method used was Hazard Identification Risk Assessment and Risk Control (HIRARC). The determination of work stages and identification of hazards was carried out through observation at 14 ASGM units and interviews with 14 informants consisting of 6 mining workers and 8 ASGM business owners. The risk assessment was carried out by observing and interviewing 8 experts as informants selected from health and environmental scientists, various offices of the Government Bolaang Mongondow Regency, and non-government institutions. The results showed that the stage of gold processing work in ASGM consists of 13 sources of hazards that can pose 16 risks. The obtained risk assessment results showed that 19% were low risk, 31% moderate risk, 25% high risk, and 25% very high risk caused by exposure to mercury through the gold ore burning process with a risk value of 25. The identified risk control measures were PPE (personal protective equipment) 43%, administrative controls 14%, engineering controls 14%, substitution 21%, and elimination 7%. Realistic risk controls that can be applied in ASGM are a combination of administrative controls and PPE.

Abstract

The Upstream Citarum watershed has a critical essential role in maintaining the quality and quantity of its water resources, which are a source of drinking water, agriculture, fisheries, irrigation, and electricity generation. The upstream watershed acts as a water catchment area that contributes as a place to accommodate the availability of water, especially during the dry season, and also as a protector of the entire area, both downstream and middle, so that the carrying capacity of the ecological balance can be protected. The increasing total population was inversely related to the condition of land use which is decreasing in quality, so to fulfill these needs, there was a land conversion that caused changes in land use. The Landsat-8 satellite imagery, SPOT 7, and spatial planning maps were used to analyze the suitability and incompatibility of land use with spatial pattern plans, evaluation, and directions for controlling the use of space. The result of the most extensive existing land use in the Upstream Citarum watershed in 2021 used for fields is 30% of the total area of 66,831.66 ha. Meanwhile, the spatial pattern plan was classified into protected and cultivated areas. The built-up area has the largest area, 35% or 75,223.96 ha. The results of the suitability of land use classes obtained that the level of suitability between the existing land use and the spatial pattern plan from the Maps of Regional Spatial Planning with the appropriate class was 52.50% or 96,205.43 ha, and the unsuitable class was 47.50% or 87,028.75 ha.

Abstract

The electrokinetic remediation method can function as a primary or secondary technology and can be applied in conjunction with other physical and biological methods, such as soil washing, phytoremediation, and bioremediation. Environmental impacts arising from the electrokinetic remediation process can be determined using life cycle assessment analysis (LCA) or other tools. This study compared the conventional electrokinetic remediation strategy with two hybrid strategies: electrokinetic-phytoremediation (EKR-Phyto) and electrokinetic-bioremediation (EKR-Bio). The environmental performance of the three strategies is then tested through LCA analysis. The database used was The Ecoinvent, and the freeware software used during the inventory stage was OpenLCA. The impact assessment stage was used in the Recipe I (2016) midpoints, Available Water Remaining (AWARE) midpoint, Intergovernmental Panel Climate Change (IPCC) midpoint (2003), UNEP Society of Environmental Toxicology (USEtox) midpoint, and cumulative energy demand midpoint. The significance of the analysis results was not obtained for the GWP parameter but for the freshwater eutrophication parameter. Among the three strategies, the EKR-Phyto strategy showed the highest significance in eutrophication but the lowest significance in land change. Substitution of chemical fertilizers into natural fertilizers in the EKR-Phyto strategy can be an opportunity for environmental sustainability. The highest impact for ecological analysis of the three strategies was EKR-Phyto in terms of GWP, the sum of primary energy, Acidification Potential (AP), and Photochemical Ozone Creation Potential (POCP).

Abstract

Humic acids play a crucial role in ion exchange and metal ion complexes; therefore, they are potentially useful in improving soil fertility and crop yield. This study aimed to explore the role of humic acid (HA) from various composts in improving degraded soil fertility and maize yield. A field experiment was conducted on Inceptisols having low soil organic carbon, nitrogen and available phosphorus contents. Eight treatments of HA formulas and one control were arranged in a randomized block design with three replications. The HA formulas used were combinations of two doses of HA (0.15 and 0.20% of soil on w w-1 base) and four types of HA (HA extracted from bagasse compost, HA extracted from water hyacinth compost, HA extracted from market waste compost, and commercial HA). The results showed that the HA application increased 16-97% of soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, available phosphorus, exchangeable potassium and calcium compared to the control. The formula of commercial HA at 0.15% was the best treatment for inhibiting soil fertility degradation in agricultural land. The best maize yield of 15.13 t ha-1 and starch content of 63.54% was obtained from the application of commercial HA at 0.20%.

Abstract

Ex-coal mining void has changed landscape shape, physical-chemical, and soil biological properties. As a form of post-mining management, the company must restore damaged land and increase its benefits for the surrounding community, one of which is as a freshwater aquaculture area. This study was conducted in a 50.26 ha void in the concession area of the coal mining company PT. Mitrabara Adiperdana (MAP) in Malinau Regency, North Kalimantan. The method used is by examining the physical quality of the environment in the laboratory using the quality standards in Indonesian Government Regulation (PP) No. 82 of 2001 and No. 22 of 2021. A study was also conducted on the assessment of community acceptance. The study found that freshwater aquaculture for pangasius (Pangasius sp.), snakehead (Channa striata), and tilapia (Oreochromis sp.) is appropriate to apply on location with several notes: reducing the concentration of suspended solids; reducing the content of phosphate and ammonia, and reducing the concentration of lead (Pb). Regarding these issues, two methods can be used: technology of turbine and nanobubble and natural-based solution through wetland ecosystem and void basin rehabilitation. At the same time, education and promotion of the surrounding community can be applied by involving communities during the piloting and demonstration plot process.

Abstract

Salinity is a common problem of abiotic stress in the world. Salinity stress causes yield loss in cultivated crops, such as maize. The yield of maize exposed to salinity stress can be increased with the application of some beneficial microorganisms. Three isolates of halotolerant bacteria from saline fields can potentially be used as biostimulants (plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria). A field experiment to study the effect of halotolerant bacteria isolates application on the growth and yield of maize (Zea mays L.) in saline soil was arranged in a randomized block design with a combination of isolate types and frequency applications, and it was repeated three times. In this study, four bacterial strains used were SN13 (Streptomyces sp.), SN22 (Bacillus megaterium), SN23 (Bacillus sp.) and SN26 (Bacillus aryabhattai) isolated from the soil of saline-prone regions of Lamongan, in coastal East Java, Indonesia. Results indicated that an application of halotolerant bacteria was able to improve the yield and nutrient uptake of maize in saline soil. However, the application of halotolerant bacteria significantly improved leaf total chlorophyll content (105.94%), plant dry weight (56.14%), Grain weight per cob (108.11%) and had a positive trend in increasing N uptake (61.19%), and Na uptake (73.09%) compared to control. It is concluded that the application of halotolerant bacteria is able to alleviate the salinity stress of maize in saline soil.

Abstract

This study focuses on how to solve cadmium (Cd) contamination in soil because this contaminant decreases soil quality. Soil remediation using the hyperaccumulator plants is an optional process to solve soil contamination. Arabidopsis halleri ssp. gemmifera (hereinafter referred to as A. halleri), is one of the candidate plants expected to be used for phytoremediation of Cd contaminated soil. The A. halleri promote solubilization of Cd in the soil directly or indirectly using its secreted root exudate. However, the effect of the metabolites profile of this plant to Cd uptake from contaminated soil is still unclear. The purpose of this study is to examine the contribution of root exudates of A. halleri to extract Cd in the soil. Cd-contaminated soil used in this study was a farmland soil containing 5.8 mg kg-1 of Cd and 648 mg kg-1 of Zn taken from Tome City, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan. Soil leaching tests were conducted using the solution containing the root exudates from A. halleri plant. The accelerating effect of root exudates of A. halleri on solubilization of Cd is fundamental information to construct the benefit of phytoremediation.

Abstract

Huge ex-coal mining land provides the soil for crop development, yet soil improvement is required. Fertilizer and soil organic matter application and liming are standard practices to improve soil productivity. The integrated crop and land management (ICLM) package offers alternative technology to increase growth and crop yield. This study aimed to evaluate an ICLM technological package to improve sweet sorghum growth and production in the ex-coal mining land. The sweet sorghum of Bioguma 1 Agritan variety was used as the indicator crop. The ICLM was composed of mixed organic fertilizers (1,000 kg granule organic fertilizer ha-1, 10 kg Procal soil amendment ha-1, 10 kg Kayabio biofertilizer ha-1, and 5 kg NPK fertilizer    ha-1), mixed inorganic fertilizers (300 kg NPK ha-1, 50 kg Urea ha-1, 10 kg Procal soil amendment ha-1, and 10 kg Kayabio biofertilizer ha-1), and local bio-activators. The field trial used a group-randomized design with four frequencies of bio-activator application and five replications. Mixed organic fertilizer was used to cover the planting holes, where previously, the seed was soaked by a bio-activator and put into holes. The mixed fertilizer was applied to a 14-day-old plant using the hole punch method (tugal). Results of this study showed that local bio-activator significantly affected the sorghum growth and yield. The best frequency of bio-activator application was three times spraying. ICLM are prospective technology to improve soil condition, crop growth, and crop yield in ex-coal mining land.

Abstract

Arabidopsis halleri ssp. gemmifera is classified as Cd and Zn hyperaccumulator plant, however, the disparity accumulation preferences in organs (root, stem and leaves) between cadmium and zinc seems less understandable. Therefore, this study aimed to portray accumulation behaviour toward the presence of Cd and Zn in the hydroponic method employing A. halleri ssp. gemmifera. The experiment was conducted by applying this plant using 2 and 300 µM of Cd, and 2 and 200 µM Zn, together with 20% Hoagland solution for 7 days, separately. The results showed that Zn in the medium was uptake faster than Cd. Furthermore, increasing Cd/Zn supply at the medium resulted in an increasing accumulation of Cd/Zn in the organs of the plant. In both Cd treatments, the accumulation followed the order of stem>root>leaves, indicating Cd transportation to the upper part has occurred during this period. The same accumulation preference pattern was also reported in the 200 µM Zn supply. However, at 2 µM Zn supply, Zn accumulation was mainly found in the leaves, followed by the root and stem. A. halleri ssp. gemmifera uptake Zn faster from the medium and translocate rapidly to the leaves at low-level Zn supply. Increasing Zn supply concentration might inhibit the translocation of Zn from stem to leaves. Meanwhile, regardless of Cd supply concentrations, this plant could only translocate Cd to the stem mostly within a short-time exposure period. Therefore, this study concluded that A. halleri ssp. gemmifera exhibited different accumulation responses when exposed to different Cd and Zn supply concentrations.
