Abstract

In Indonesia, the COVID-19 disease has developed rapidly as found on April 20, 2021, there were 1,614,849 positive cases of Covid-19. The increase in cases of the coronavirus has resulted in an increase in the amount of medical waste during the Covid-19. The most common medical waste is face masks, both from hospitals and households. This increase in medical waste will cause environmental damage or health problems.  "A viable solution for reducing the impact of face mask waste on health and the environment is to recycle the face mask mechanically, chemically, and thermally. The proximate, ultimate, FTIR analysis and hardness testing have been carried out to obtain the potential for recycled products. The test results show that carbon ( C ) and volatile matter  (VM)are found in large quantities; polypropylene content is a detected type of plastic. Thus, recycled products can generate potential as a source of renewable energy, cement replacement materials, pipes, packaging materials.. Besides being able to produce new products, this process can also eliminate viruses.

Abstract

Rainfall intensity can affect water infiltration to the ground. The increase in groundwater level will increase pore pressure (μ) that minimizes shear resistance of the slope mass, especially on the ground material (soil). The increase in surface water levels also increases surface water discharge and increases erosion below the surface (piping or subaqueous erosion). As a result of more subtle friction (silt) from the time that washed away soil, the soil will decrease future resilience. This happened in Subdistrict Cimanggung, Sumedang, West Java. This area is composed of weathered soil of volcanic products such as tuff, volcanic breccia, and andesitic lava. The parameters of this research contain basic properties and mechanical properties of soil, slope profile in MH soil, and water surface level. This research aims to determine basic properties and mechanical properties of soil, as well as the effects of groundwater level, that can give recommendations for groundwater level to get a stable condition of the slope. The basic properties and mechanical properties of soil are known based on laboratory tests from a disturbed and undisturbed soil sample were obtained by surface sampling and geotechnical hand drilling. Slopes were analyzed by the Bishop method using Rockscience Slide software. The result is there’s an increase in the value of safety factors when the level of surface water level decrease. From the value of the safety factor that varies between slope sections, that slope can be stable if water surface level -7,5 meters beneath the surface.

Abstract

Administratively, Padaherang region and surrounding is included to kecamatan Padaherang, Ciamis Regency, West Java. The reason why this area is a research area is partly because the author feels that the area in Ciamis Regency is a southern mountainous area that is influenced by volcanism and sedimentation processes and other geological processes. In addition, there are still many geological problems that have not been fully revealed, so the author feels the need to conduct further and more detailed research. Objects to be studied in the field include rocks (description, sampling, direction of moves and slopes), indications of geological structures, and landscape appearances accompanied by sketch photos and additional data deemed to support the research results, The research steps carried out included several stages of work, namely the preparation stage, field work, laboratory research, and the stage of preparing reports. The trajectory that is traced in the field research that has been determined at the preparatory stage. If the trajectory is deemed inadequate, a search for additional trajectories is carried out. There are three methods used in geological mapping, namely the field orientation method, the compass trajectory method, the measuring tape method and the compass. In this mapping, the methods used are the field orientation method and the measuring tape and compass method. Threre are  five lithology units which is arrange at research area, these units of lithologi from the older to the younger is breccias unit, sandstone units,  claystone. Geology activity at research area predicted begun at Oligocen till Holocen era. first in Oligocen the volcanic activity is strong enough where the eruption produced the breccia and sandstone unit, this process stop at lower Miosen. And at the middle Miosen there is the tectonic activity hapenned. Limestone unit was diendapkan at middle Miocen, and claystone unit at upper Miocen, and quartery deposit is the younger unit at research area

Abstract

The research area around Gunung Geulis has been shifted from agricultural land into residential areas. This transformation eventually will affect the water infiltration process especially throughout the rainy season and can cause the intensity of the erosion rate to go higher. Soil erodibility is defined as the susceptibility of the soil to erosion, as the degree to which a soil is easily eroded or not. This research was conducted to determine the erodibility value in an area of ± 25 km2 which administratively belongs to the Districts of Cimanggung and Jatinangor, Sumedang Regency, West Java Province. The erodibility value can be calculated by the method introduced by Wischmeier and Smith (1978) and it is determined based on several parameters, namely texture of the soil, soil structure, permeability value, and organic (%C) content in a soil sample. The research data was obtained by engineering geological mapping of the distribution of surface soil, taking undisturbed soil samples using the hand auger method, and laboratory tests in the form of testing the physical properties of the soil. Then several laboratory tests are conducted to identify the physical properties of soil such as organic (%C) content analysis using Walkley and Black method, grain size analysis, hydrometer analysis, and permeability analysis using the falling head method. In the research area, the soil type is divided into two units, namely the Low Plasticity Silt Unit and the High Plasticity Silt Unit. Soil erodibility values around Gunung Geulis ranged from 0.118 to 0.514 0,1-ton acre hour/acre foot-ton inch which was included in the classification of a low, medium, moderately high, and high erodibility levels according to US customary dimensions.

Abstract

Geothermal manifestations can occur in zones of high permeability. Permeability zones can be analyzed through lineament density, assumed to be associated with faults and fractures which are considered as weak areas that can allow geothermal fluid to pass from reservoir to the surface. This study intends to determine the zone with high permeability in geothermal manifestations. Modeling of surface data in the form of lineament pattern can be analyzed with Fault Fracture Density (FFD) analysis. The lineaments pattern is obtained based on the appearance through DEMNAS satellite imagery. The lineaments pattern deliniated by providing lighting from several angles, from lighting azimuths of 0°, 60°, 120°, 180°, 240° and 300° at a constant altitude of 45°. FFD analysis shows geothermal manifestations appear in the high permeability zone in the Sembalun area, Lombok.

Abstract

Landslide are natural disasters that often occur in West Java, in 2020 landslides have occurred 852 times. In an effort to prevent the occurrence of rock landslides, it is necessary to study the stability of rock slopes, so it is necessary to evaluate the discontinuity of the rock and take engineering geological. The purpose of this study is to analyze the stability of rock slopes in the study area so that the types of landslides that can occur can be known. Method used is Kinematic Analysis where the object of research is an andesite outcrop located at the northwest foot of Mount Geulis, Cinanjung Village, Jatinangor District. Kinematic analysis is an analysis of the movement of objects without considering the forces that cause them. Various types of slope failure are associated with geological structures that result in a discontinuity plane in the rock body. The results of the study are in the form of determining the potential for landslides that can occur in the research area. Based on the kinematic analysis of the types of failure in the research area that can occur are wedge types in the MT-2, MT-5, and MT-6 segments and toppling types in the MT-3, MT-4, MT-7 segments and Planar failure found in the MT - 1 segment. potential failure in the study area are toppling and wedge with percentage values for the possibility of landslides were obtained, namely: wedge failure is 1.82% - 3.91% and toppling failure is 21.82% - 38.95% and Planar failure is 55.81%
