Abstract

Increasing plastic production, which causes the problem of plastic garbage polluting the oceans, has increased the use of biodegradable plastics to address the problem. However, it is still debatable how much microplastic contamination it can cause. So, this study aims to determine the proportion of biodegradable plastics in the marine environment, identify the microplastics it produces, and analyze the relationship between the two. Seawater sampling is located in the Bangka Strait. The research was conducted in the Genetics and Biotechnology Laboratory, Department of Biology, Sriwijaya University. The biodegradable plastic test material used was made from a mixture of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) and starch. Biodegradation test method using standard ASTM D6691-17 with respirometry system design. The stage of microplastic identification is carried out through filtration with a 4.75 mm-size filter; density separation using ZnCl2 solution and Whatman No. 1 filter paper; as well as visual observation of microplastics under a microscope. last Pearson Correlation analysis with bootstrap to see the relationship of the percentage of biodegradation with microplastics. The results obtained in this study were the percentage of biodegradable plastic (26.5±1.4%) and positive control kraft paper (33.2±4.2%) for 70 days, which produced 9 microplastic particles from biodegradable plastic with fragment and film types. Correlation analysis concluded that there was no relationship between the percentage of biodegradation and the microplastics produced.

Abstract

A landslide is the movement of soil mass down a slope. Landslides can be influenced by some factors including rainfall, soil type, land slope, land cover, and human activities. Cilawu Sub district, Garut, West Java is one of the most frequently experienced landslide areas which cause severe losses. This mapping aims to provide information about the landslide susceptibility areas in Cilawu Sub-district, Garut, West Java by using a Geographic Information System (GIS). This study used Digital Elevation Model (DEM) image, Landsat image, rainfall, geology, and soil types data which were then mapped using ArcGIS software. The analysis process used the overlay method, scoring method, and weighting method. The final result was a landslide map with 4 susceptibility levels covering low susceptibility, medium susceptibility, high susceptibility, and very high susceptibility. Based on this analysis, Cilawu District was dominated by the following classes: high susceptibility with an area of 5470.07 Ha, medium susceptibility with an area of 1627.78 Ha, very high susceptibility with an area of 515.96 Ha, and low susceptibility with an area of 366.16 Ha.

Abstract

The study aims to assess the generation, composition and household’s management of domestic solid waste in Vinh Chau town, Soc Trang province, Vietnam. The required data were collected by field survey and by interviewing 198 households in the study area. The results showed that the average generation rate of solid wastes was 2.29 kg/day with an emission factor per capita of 0.55 kg/person/day. The composition of domestic solid wastes was organic matters accounted for 86.60%, plastics 4.30%, hazardous waste 2.11%, paper and cardboard 1.95%, textiles 1.29%, metals 0.97%, brick and porcelain 0.54%, glass 0.51% and other components 1.73%. The solid wastes are now not classified at source. About 46.46% of the surveyed households have registered for the solid waste collection service and the collection rate in the study area is only 56.5%. The result also presented that 53.53% of waste is collected and brought to the landfill for treatment, while the remaining is mainly burned by the households. Solid waste management in the study area has several limits and it should be soon improved to meet the current legal regulations.

Abstract

Solid waste management (SWM) is still a big challenge for cities around the world, especially in rapidly developing metropolitan cities in developing countries, one of which is in South Sumatera Province. This province consists of several regencies and cities that already have their own waste management systems. Ogan Ilir Regency is one of the districts that has its own waste management system, but it has not run effectively because the waste retribution has not been optimally implemented. This writing paper aims to analyze potential sources of waste retribution, analyze aspects of willingness to pay and recommend new amounts of waste retribution in accordance with existing circumstances. The research method used is in the form of surveys, observations and interviews with the intended respondents. The new levy analysis is based on Regulation Number 7 of the Indonesian Minister of Home Affairs (Permendagri) for 2021. The findings revealed that there were various possible waste retributions emanating from the market sector of IDR 437,635,000, however only IDR 85,144,500 were realized. The willingness to pay study results suggest that education level and income have a large influence on the readiness to pay for waste retribution. The newly obtained levy is IDR 237,922 per ton for the recommended outcomes. The new levy analysis is based on Regulation Number 7 of the Indonesian Minister of Home Affairs (Permendagri) for 2021.

Abstract

Noise pollution refers to excessive, unwanted, or disruptive sound in the environment. It can originate from various sources, such as road traffic, air traffic, railways, construction, using loudspeakers, industrial operations, and even household appliances. The purpose of the study was to review noise pollution and its effects on human health in Rajshahi City, Bangladesh. Most of the studies identified that the main source of noise pollution in the city is road traffic noise. The city is at a crossroads with prominent national as well as educational institutions like Rajshahi University, Rajshahi College, Varendra Museum, Bank of Padma River, Rajshahi University of Engineering and Technology, Hospital and Diagnostic Centre, BSCIC Industry, and numerous other educational institutions. All studies showed that noise pollution levels higher than the recommended acceptable limits were detected in various areas. Exposure to high levels of noise causes stress on human health, such as auditory, hearing, and nervous system damage, reducing productivity, insomnia, sexual impotency, respiratory, cardio-vascular, neurological, and outing damages, and limiting human life. It is recommended that affected sites develop a practical management approach for reducing noise pollution.

Abstract

Based on the study, it was found that the land in the Wanggu Watershed is highly dynamic due to community activities such as agriculture, plantations, forestry, and settlement development. This can affect the performance and carrying capacity of the land in the watershed. The purpose of study was to evaluate the performance of watershed management and analyze the land-carrying capacity based on indicators of land. The parameters analyzed were the percentage of critical land area, the percentage of vegetation cover, and the erosion index. To obtain the data needed for the study, both primary and secondary data were used. Primary data was obtained through the overlay of the base map to obtain a map of critical land, making land cover maps, and calculating erosion prediction and carrying capacity analysis of the Wanggu Watershed. Secondary data was obtained from related agencies in the form of critical land data, land cover data, literature, policy documents, and study reports that are relevant to watershed management performance. The results of the study showed that the percentage of critical and somewhat critical land area in the Wanggu Watershed is 16.07 percent, which means that this value still qualifies as high category critical land recovery. The percentage of vegetation cover, especially forest cover, is 27.10 percent, which is still in bad condition. The average erosion index value is 2.00, which is high. Based on these three parameters of land condition indicators in the Wanggu Watershed, the performance of watershed management has a poor land carrying capacity category with a value of 50. Overall, the study highlights the need for better management and conservation of the land in the Wanggu Watershed to improve its performance and carrying capacity.
