The results of studies of sea and river waters, soils of the territory adjacent to the Vanino transport and industrial hub are presented. Iron, manganese, copper and zinc have been identified as common priority pollutants of sea and river water. The quality of river waters of the Toki and Aya rivers, estimated by 14 hydrochemical indicators, is classified as "polluted". Local areas of peat-bog soil and brown soils belonging to the Toki river catchment area were identified as background areas in the studied territory.

AbstrakSungai Cisadane memiliki multifungsi untuk kebutuhan pertanian, rumah tangga dan industri. Namun, kegiatan manusia di Daerah Aliran Sungai/DAS Cisadane dan di Sungai Cisadane dapat mengancam fungsi dan nilai ekosistem S.Cisadane. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis keanakeragaman makrozoobentos sebagai indikator kualitas air S.Cisadane. Penelitian dilakukan di sembilan (9) titik di sepanjang Sungai Cisadane dari hulu hingga hilir. Sampel makrozoobentos dikoleksi dengan jala surber dan Eckman Grabb. Pada musim kemarau, kekayaan taksa makrozoobentos terendah di bagian tengah dan hilir hilir (8 taksa) dan tertinggi di hulu (20 taksa). Kualitas air sungai ditentukan berdasarkan Indeks keanekaragaman Shannon-Wiener (H’). Kualitas air S.Cisadane yaitu baik/tercemar sangat ringan di hulu (Stasiun 1), cukup baik/tercemar ringan di hulu - tengah (Stasiun 2-5), sedang/tercemar sedang tengah mendekati hilir (Stasiun 6), dan buruk/tercemar berat di hilir (Stasiun 7-9).Kata kunci: kualitas air, makrozoobentos, Sungai CisadaneAbstractCisadane River has multifunction i.e. agriculture, domestic and industry. All human activities in Cisadane Watershed and in Cisadane River could threat function and value of Cisadane River. The aim of this research was to analysis macrozoobenthos diversity as bioindicator of Cisadane River. Nine (9) stations were designed along Cisadane River from up to downstream. Samples were collected with Surber net and Eckman Grabb. The taxa richness decreased from upstream (20 taxa) to downstream (8 taxa).Based on Shannon-Wiener (H’), the water quality of Cisadane River were classified i.e. good (Station 1), quite good/slightly polluted (Station 2-5), moderate/moderately polluted (Station 6), and not good/ heavily polluted (Station 7-9).Keywords: Cisadane River, water quality, macrozoobenthos

<p><em>Gelis River is the largest river that divides in the middle of the Holy City. The current condition of the Gelis river is very alarming because the water is black and has an unpleasant odor. The variety of human activities around the Gelis River greatly affects the river and human ecosystems themselves. Therefore, a solution is needed in overcoming this problem in order to create clean and pollutant-free waters. This study aims to improve the quality of river water in Sungai Gelis using a combination of apu-ape bioremediation and nano-zeolite material. This study uses a completely randomized design consisting of 4 treatments with 3 replications. The treatment in this study included P0: Control (without apu - apu and nano zeolite), P1: Gelis river water was reheated with apu - apu plant, P2: Gelis river water was treated with nano zeolite, and P3: Gelis river water was treated with plants apu - apu and nano zeolite. Testing of Sungai Gelis wastewater is carried out in physics, chemistry and biology. The results showed that the combination of apu-apu and nanozeolite obtained clear water quality, odorless, pH became normal, and no microorganisms</em></p>

Agricultural risks of mineral salt (Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, Na+, SO42- , Cl- , CO32- , HCO3- ) content in the water of the Voghji River catchment basin were assessed. Water sampling and hydrochemical analyses were implemented in July and September 2017. The results of the study showed that anthropogenic salt level in the Voghji River water site located downstream from Kapan Town and in the area of the Norashenik River mouth may have posed serious health risks to irrigated soils and crops.

Kegiatan manusia yang memanfaatkan air sungai dan membuang sampah/limbah ke Sungai Cisadane dapat menurunkan kualitas air Sungai Cisadane. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis kualitas air S.Cisadane berdasarkan faktor fisika dan kimia air sungai. Penelitian dilakukan di sembilan (9) titik di sepanjang Sungai Cisadane dari hulu hingga hilir pada Agustus-November 2011. Hasil menunjukkan jika air Sungai Cisadane telah tercemar. Secara umum, kualitas air Sungai Cisadane di bagian hulu dan tengah (Stasiun 1-6) masih dapat dipergunakan sebagai air untuk peruntukan Kelas 2 (PP.No.82/2001) dengan kualitas air tercemar ringan. Namun, air Sungai Cisadane di bagian hilir (Stasiun 7-8) hanya untuk peruntukan Kelas 3 dan 4 dan dikategorikan tercemar parah.

Human activities in using river water and dumping waste to the river could decrease water quality of Cisadane River. The aim of this research was to analysis water quality of Cisadane River based on physical and chemical factor.  Water sampling was conducted along Cisadane River from up to downstream at nine (9) stations. Result showed that Cisadane River is polluted. Generally, water quality of Cisadane River in up and middle part (Station 1-6) could be used for purposes as in Class 2 (Gov.Reg/PP No.82/2001) and classified into moderately polluted. But, water quality of down Cisadane River (Station 7-9) only for Class 3 and 4 that categorized into heavily polluted. Keywords: Cisadane river, water quality

AbstrakSungai Klampok mengalir melalui Kecamatan Bergas dan sekelilingnya terdapat beberapa industri sehingga mengakibatkan sungai tersebut tercemar karena menjadi badan penerima air limbah. Akibat penurunan kualitas air Sungai Klampok akan berimbas pada penurunan kualitas air tanah yang digunakan oleh penduduk sekitar sungai tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kualitas air tanah yang berada di sekitar Sungai Klampok sebagai akibat adanya pengaruh beban pencemaran oleh air limbah industri berdasarkan Permenkes No. 416/MENKES/PER/IX/1990 tentang persyaratan kualitas air bersih. Lokasi pengambilan sampel air sungai dibagi menjadi 3 stasiun (LK1, LK2 dan LK3) sedangkan untuk sampel airtanah dari rumah-rumah penduduk dilakukan pada 6 titik yaitu 3 titik di daerah utara dari Sungai Klampok (U1,U2, U3) dan 3 titik di daerah selatan dari Sungai Klampok (S1,S2, S3). Pengambilan sampel dilakukan pada musim kemarau. Dari hasil uji kualitas air sungai, pencemaran yang terjadi pada air sungai Klampok masuk dalam kategori tercemar ringan-sedang. Sedangkan hasil uji kualitas air tanah masih berada di bawah baku mutu yang disyaratkan oleh Permenkes No. 416/MENKES/PER/IX/1990, sehingga penurunan kualitas air sungai Klampok tidak mempengaruhi kualitas air tanah di sekitar sungai tersebut. AbstractThe Klampok River flows through the Bergas Subdistrict and there are a number of industries around it, causing the river to become polluted because it becomes the body of the recipient of wastewater. As a result of the decline in the quality of the water in the Klampok River, it will impact on the quality of groundwater used by residents around the river. This study aims to determine the quality of groundwater around the Klampok River as a result of the influence of pollution load by industrial wastewater based on Permenkes No. 416 / MENKES / PER / IX / 1990 concerning requirements for clean water quality. The location of river water sampling is divided into 3 stations (LK1, LK2, and LK3) while for groundwater samples from residential houses is carried out at 6 points, namely 3 points in the northern area of Klampok River (U1, U2, U3) and 3 points in the area south of the Klampok River (S1, S2, S3). Sampling is done in the dry season. From the results of the test of river water quality, pollution that occurs in Klampok river water is categorized as mild-moderate polluted. While the results of groundwater quality testing are still below the quality standards required by Permenkes No. 416 / MENKES / PER / IX / 1990 so that the decline in the water quality of the Klampok river does not affect the quality of groundwater around the river.
