Abstract

The entry of nutrients (nitrate, phosphate and silicate) from land-based anthropogenic activities (industry, agriculture and household waste) through rivers can potentially cause changes in water quality and will affect fertility and aquatic organisms such as phytoplankton. These three nutrients play an important role in the living tissue cells of living organisms and in the photosynthesis process. This study aims to analyze the effect of nitrate, phosphate and silicate content on the plankton abundance in the estuary of the Batang Arau River, Padang, West Sumatra. The method used is a survey method, the determination of the sampling station is done by purposive sampling, data were analysed by Excel and SPSS Software. Based on the results of laboratory analysis, the nitrate content ranged from 0,117 to 0,485 mg/l, phosphate content from 0,239 to 0,704 mg/l, and silicate content from 0,031 to 0,685 mg/l. Planktonic diatom abundance in the estuary of the Batang Arau River ranges from 194 to 750 ind/l. The results of the statistical analysis of the effect of nitrate, phosphate and silicate with an abundance of diatoms are expressed by the equation Y = 743,019 - 481,828Nitrate - 199,552Phosphate - 172,971Silicate. This equation explains that the effect of nitrate, phosphate and silicate content on diatom abundance has an inverse or negative relationship, where nitrate, phosphate and silicate levels increase, the diatom abundance will decrease. The difference of content and the relationship between parameters analyzed in this research are discussed.

Abstract

One of the microalgae that are widely used in the industrial world is Spirulina platensis which has high nutritional content of protein, fatty acids, vitamins and antioxidants. In its growth, this microalgae requires media and the addition of macronutrients nitrate and phosphate which greatly affect the growth and productivity of S. platensis biomass. This study aims to determine the effect of nitrate and phosphate concentrations on S. platensis biomass on an indoor scale and to determine the optimal nitrate and phosphate concentrations to achieve maximum biomass. This research was conducted in August 2020 as an experimental method, with culturing S. platensis with the addition of different concentrations of nitrate and phosphate. The design used in this study was a Completely Randomized Design consisting of 5 treatments that are 0 ppm, 10 ppm, 20 ppm, 30 ppm, and 40 ppm, each treatment with 3 repetitions. The source of nitrate and phosphate used is NPK. Water quality parameters during culture with temperatures ranging from 29-30oC, salinity 25-26 ppt, and pH 8. The optimal concentrations of nitrate and phosphate to achieve the maximum biomass is in treatment C (30 ppm) with a total of biomass 0,43 g. Whereas in treatment D (40 ppm) the biomass did not show a significant increase because the dose was too high with a total of biomass only 0,299 g
