Aktivitas manusia di sekitar Sungai Winongo dapat berdampak pada kontaminasi logam berat dari limpasan permukaan dan buangan langsung. Sifat toksik pada logam perlu diperhatikan karena dapat terakumulasi dalam waktu yang lama dan merusak lingkungan. Evaluasi logam berat dapat dilakukan dengan cara pemantauan kualitas air dan kualitas sedimen untuk mengetahui tingkat pencemaran suatu perairan karena logam berat dan distribusi logam berat itu sendiri. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui level toksik perairan dilakukan analisis hasil dengan berbagai indeks, yaitu Faktor Risiko Ekologis (Er) dan Indeks Beban Polusi (PLI). Sampel air, sampel sedimen tersuspensi (TSS), dan sedimen pada dasar permukaan diambil pada masing-masing titik untuk diuji laboratorium menggunakan alat AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry). Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa logam Cu dan Cr paling banyak ditemukan pada sedimen dasar, sedangkan logam Pb paling banyak ditemukan terlarut dalam air. Logam pada sedimen tersuspensi ditemukan sangat kecil yaitu <0,031. Konsentrasi logam pada sedimen tersuspensi tertinggi adalah 0,043 mg/L pada titik T4.  Berdasarkan perhitungan Er dan PLI, potensi risiko ekologis terhadap logam di Sungai Winongo rendah (Er<40) dan tidak terdapat polusi karena logam berat (PLI<1). Namun, analisis kualitas air menunjukkan untuk nilai Cu dan Pb melebihi baku mutu kelas 2. Penelitian ini dapat dijadikan penelitian awal dalam kajian logam berat di Sungai Winongo secara historis.ABSTRACTThe Increase of human activities around the Winongo River can have an impact on decreasing water quality due to pollution from household and small industrial waste. Metal contamination in the aquatic environment is an environmental issue that needs attention due to its toxicity. Moreover, it can be accumulated in aquatic environments for a long time. Monitoring water quality and sediment quality is important to determine the distribution of heavy metals sources and the level of pollution in the waters. This research aims to determine the water toxicity level. An analysis of the results was carried out with various indices, which are the Ecological Risk (Er) and Pollution Load Index (PLI) in the water samples, suspended sediment samples (TSS), and sediment at the bottom of the surface will be taken at each point for laboratory testing using AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry). The concentration of heavy metals for Cu and Cr in the surface sediment respectively was found higher than its concentration in the river water. Meanwhile, Pb contents are found higher in river water. The contents of heavy metals are found less in the suspended sediment samples. The Er and PLI shows low pollution risk and low pollution status, respectively. It indicates that the Code River was still in low pollution status for Cu, Cr, and Pb contamination. On the other hand, the water quality analysis results Cu and Pb over the Water Quality Standard for Class 2. This study may serve as a useful reference and baseline for heavy metals research in Winongo River historically.

The Barito River as the largest and longest river in South Kalimantan has been convicted as the most polluted river on an international level. Where one of the most commonly found compounds is the heavy metal lead (Pb) with a high enough levels that alternatives are needed to reduce the levels of the metal. One way to reduce the levels of such heavy metals is to use activated carbon hyacinth. So the activated carbon from hyacinth is made in accordance with SII No.0258-79 and knows the effect of variations in the administration of activated carbon hyacinth at a time of 15 minutes, 30 minutes and 45 minutes in lowering the levels of lead heavy metals (Pb). The research method used to determine the effect of variations in the administration of activated carbon hyacinth is by quantitative testing using the Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry tool. The results showed that activated carbon hyacinth has met SII No.0258-79 with a randemen test result of 15%, water content of 3%, and absorption of iodine of 241.16 mg / gram. Significant value produced 0.742 with regression value (r) 0.999 and resulted in decreased lead metal levels in the variation of 15 minutes activated carbon administration of -0.030 mg / l with an absorption of 120%, 30 minutes of 0.073 mg / l with an absorption of 48% and 45 minutes of -0.097 mg / l with an absorption of 167%. Hyacinth activated carbon can be used to lower the levels of lead heavy metals (Pb) with a maximum contact time of 45 minutes by 167%.

A co-precipitation technique for nickel(II), chromium(II), manganese(II), lead(II) and zinc(II) with the aid of copper(II) cyclo-hexylmethyldithiocarbamate was established. The influences of some analytical parameters such as pH, sample volume, amounts of cyclo-hexylmethyldithiocarbamate and copper(II) on the recovery of metal ions were investigated. The heavy metals in the precipitate were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. The range of detection limits for the heavy metals was 0.003–0.005 mg/L. The atomic spectrometric technique with co-precipitation procedure was successfully applied for the determination of Ni, Cr, Mn, Pb and Zn in industrial wastewater and sediment samples from Ladipo stream in Lagos, Nigeria. The mean concentrations for these metals using co-precipitation procedure were not significantly different from corresponding concentrations obtained using spectrometric techniques without co-precipitation procedure.
