Abstract

Many researchers were conducted using geotechnical sentrifug in studies of the environment. The advantages of using a geotechnical sentrifug are quick to obtain the results, less materials used, economical and can be controlled for factors that are not required in the test. All geotechnical sentrifugs that were conducted are located outside from Indonesia and Malaysia, so that requires for build a geotechnical sentrifug in the country. Engineering methodology was to modify the existing geotechnical sentrifug in other countries. The geotechnical sentrifug that was build Universiti Kebangsaan Malay-sia is 50 cm radius beam type geotechnical sentrifug with dead lock capacity 6 kg and maximum acceleration around 75 gravity. The main components are body, arm, bucket sample, counter weight, motor, contaminant bottle and computer. The geo-technical sentrifug is equipped with speed sensor, close sensor, stroboscope sensor and vibration sensor. This geotechnical sentrifug was conducted in environmental studies.

Abstract

Saltwater intrusion becomes a common problem in coastal area. Northern coast of Bengkalis Island in Riau, Indonesia that contiguously to Malacca Strait is experiencing the problem particularly in Selat Baru area which considered as developing area and most of the people live close to the sea. Dug well is the main source of groundwater that had been used by the population in Selat Baru and as the increasing of land occupation, the demand of clean water is rising up followed by the number of dug well. A study of groundwater monitoring was conducted to identify the zone of saltwater intrusion. Field observation had done by measuring the water level and physical parameters of groundwater such as taste, pH, electrical conductivity (EC) and total dissolved solid (TDS) from 110 existing dug wells. Some conus feature had found from groundwater elevation map which indicated lower water level caused by excessive groundwater pumping. Generally, pH shows values from 6-8 that was still in range of water quality standard, but there are 20 wells (18%) that have pH below the water quality standard (slightly acidic water). Similar pattern had been observed from Electrical Conductivity (EC) and Total Dissolved Solid (TDS) map, higher value of EC and TDS was dominant in the northern part of study area and lower value in the south. Groundwater taste map also revealed the identical condition with EC and TDS map which dominated by brackish and saline water in the northern part. Therefore, the study area had been divided into two zones of groundwater saline water zone possibly caused by the saltwater intrusion in the northern part and freshwater zone from the center to the southern part.
