Abstract

The Soripesa prospect area is located at Maria village, Wawo district, Bima region in the East Sumbawa Island, Indonesia. Lithology is dominantly composed of a lithic-crystal tuff of andesitic and dacitic composition and bedded limestone. The polymetallic epithermal quartz veins are hosted by andesitic volcaniclastic rocks. Within these veins, multiphases, colloform-crustiform, bedding to massive textures with pyrite, sphalerite, galena, chalcopyrite, chalcocite, azurite, and malachite are observed. Selected samples were analyzed by using ore microscopy and SEM-EDX. Ore minerals show replacement, ex-solution, colloform, and zonal textures. The paragenesis diagram was made from a careful study of polished sections and thin sections. Textures of ore minerals such as banded, exsolution, replacement, and zone, have been interpreted to correspond to the order of deposition. In pyrite, the average content of Co (0.45 wt.%) is higher than Ni content (0.14 wt.%) and it means that their origin may be hydrothermal origin. Average content ratio, Co:Ni is 2.81. Galena shows a low Ag content of 0.07 %in average. But they show a high Au content of 1.48 %in average. Sphalerite shows a low Fe content of 1.04 %in average and occasionally chalcopyrite inclusion/disease also occurred. Ga and Ge contents are also high in sphalerite. Co>Ni in pyrite, low content of Ag in Galena, low content of Fe and mole % FeS in sphalerite, high content of Ga and Ge, and log (Ga/Ge) in sphalerite, show that pyrite, galena, and sphalerite from Soripesa prospect area were formed under low temperature condition of hydrothermal fluid. Keywords: Ore textures, paragenesis, deposition, hydrothermal fluid, low temperature

Abstract

Parangtritis beach, located in a coastal aquifer at the southern part of Yogyakarta Province, Indonesia is bounded by the Indian Ocean at the South, Opak River at the West, and Tertiary Limestone Rock to the East. Local land-use is predominantly agriculture, rice fields and settlements and the population is estimated to be 9,386 persons as per the 2012 census. The total surface area is estimated at 9.46 km2. The aims of this research were to understand the system of groundwater and to assess and predict saltwater intrusion by conducting a numerical groundwater model. Hydrological and hydrogeological data were collected directly from the field and from previous work for input into the model. The model simulates an unconfined aquifer system where the aquifer thickness varies from 30-40 meters. The material of the aquifer consists of sand varying from fine to coarse grain size and fine gravel with hydraulic conductivity values of 8.974 × 10−4, 1.794 × 10−3, and 1.337 × 10−3 m/s at the northern, central, and southern part of the research area, respectively. The maximum length of the saltwater interface was estimated at about 205.1 m laterally and 40 m vertically relative to the location of the groundwater table around 1m above sea level. Direction of groundwater flow is from north to south. Groundwater table elevation equals 5 m at the north and 0 m at the south with a hydraulic gradient estimated at about 2.45 × 10−3. As a result of a steady-state simulation as well as two cases of prediction for five and ten years in the future, it is determined that that the salinity of the surrounding environment is not potentially adverse to the groundwater quality in the study area. This is in part due to low population in this area and abundant groundwater resources, as well as the results of the groundwater model. Keywords: Coastal aquifer, numerical groundwater model, conceptual model, observed heads

Abstract

Experimental studies using column testing of lignite, shale, and ironsand in copper solution were carried out to determine the adsorption capacity of lignite, shale, and ironsand in remediation of water contaminated with copper. Lignite, shale, and ironsand were analyzed using XRD, SEM/EDX, and XRF. The treatment process by column adsorption was carried out over a period of 24 hours at a stable velocity of 0.005ml/s. After treatment, the remaining copper in the solution was recorded, thus allowing the adsorption capacity of lignite, shale, and ironsand to be calculated. The results revealed that when the solution was treated by lignite and shale there was a good degree of copper removal, while the ironsand had very poor degree of copper removal. The best material for copper removal was lignite with 25-mesh grain size. Pyrite, graphite, calcite, and illite were found in lignite and smectite, calcite, pyrite, hematite, and illite were found in shale. These materials were also shown to contain an abundance of high-valence elements in Al2O3, SiO2, and Fe3O4 which contributes to additional adsorption capacity. CAC values for lignite and shale reached nearly to 100%, suggesting that lignite and shale have a high adsorption capacity. In contrast, ironsand, which has mostly sand minerals with little clay and organic content, caused the pollutant to move rapidly to the water table, reducing the adsorption potential. CAC values treated by ironsand were shown to be negative which showed an increasing of Cu2+ in natural ironsand into solution. Keywords: Copper, ironsand, shale, lignite, column experiment

Abstract

The presence of heavy metals in surface water, which is common in mining area pose harmful effect to human health and the environment. Recently, cocopeat has been studied as an effective sorbent material for removing heavy metals from wastewater. In this study, kinetic was done by analyzing the distribution of the heavy metal in sorbent material and liquid phase after mixing 50 mg/L solution of lead (Pb2+) and zinc (Zn2+)in single solute system with 0.1 g of coco-peat, that were consequently shaken at 5, 10, 15, 30, 60, 120, 180 and 360 minutes. To determine the equilibrium adsorption isotherm for each heavy metal, the solutions of 10, 20, 30,40 and 50 mg/L of Pb2+ and Zn2+ were prepared separately. Two different pH levels (natural pH, and pH 4) were setto describe the sorption behavior of Pb2+ and Zn2+ of each heavy metal.Using data from batch experiments, appropriate kinetic (time dependency) and equilibrium (isotherm) models were fitted on the sorbent material and liquid phase concentrations to determine adsorption parameters. Pseudo second-order kinetic model fitted well to the kinetic data due to chemisorption that happened during experiments. In other hand, Langmuir model fitted well to the equilibrium, this indicates that the sorption of lead and zinc on coco peat is monolayer and that the adsorbent’s surface is homogenous. The increase of heavy metals adsorption following the increase of pH might be due to negative charge of coco peat surface. Pb2+ adsorbed more than Zn2+ because ion with high hydration enthalpy will have smaller amount of ion adsorbed. The hydration enthalpies for Pb2+ and Zn2+ are 23 kJ/kg and 113 kJ/kg, receptively. Considering all the factors that we have discussed, cocopeat has high efficiency to remove the heavy metals from wastewater. Keywords: Coco-peat, adsorption, batch experiment, kinetic, equilibrium.

Abstract

The aim of the present work is to investigate the ability of natural bentonite (untreated) from Pacitan, East Java to remove lead ions from aqueous solution. The bentonite has specific surface area and cation exchange capacity of 27.52 m2 g−1 and 65.20 meq/100 gr of bentonite, respectively. Towards this aim, batch adsorption experiments were carried out and the effect of various parameters on this removal process has been investigated. The effects of pH, grain size of bentonite, adsorption time and lead ion concentration on the adsorption process were examined. The optimum pH for adsorption was found to be 9, with the finer grain size of bentonite is more effective. In adsorption studies, residual lead ions concentration reached equilibrium in a duration of 24 hours. Adsorption of lead on bentonite appeared to follow Freundlich isotherm. Our results demonstrate that the adsorption process was mostly dominated by ion exchange process. Keywords: Removal, lead, aqueous solution, natural bentonite, adsorption.

Abstract

South Makassar Basin Depocenter (SMBD) is located in Southern Makassar Strait which has petroleum potential by the presence of oil and gas indications within the area based on Airborne Laser Fluorescence survey. However, detail studies within this area are not developed well. One of the studies which can be utilized for further discoveries of oil and gas field in SMBD is a study of depositional model using seismic facies method to maximize limited seismic and well data. Interpretation of depositional model in Eocene (syn-rift phase) was varied from alluvial plain and alluvial fan complex, continued gradually to platform. In Oligocene time (post-rift phase), massive transgression caused a major deepening in entire SMBD where the depositional environment changed to basinal plain. In early Miocene – recent interval (syn-orogenic phase), SMBD was relatively in stable condition at basinal plain environment. Lower Tanjung Sequence will be the most prolific petroleum play in SMBD due to its adequate source rock, reservoir rock and seal rock as well. Keywords: South Makassar basin, depositional model, seismic facies
