Abstract Oil drilling and industrial effluent that wasted through the Bengawan Solo River estuary is a source of environmental pollution in the Sidayu and Banyu Urip district, Gresik as one that produces the blood shellfish (Anadara granosa). One of the most dangerous contaminants of heavy metals is mercury. However shellfish can accumulate more heavy metals than other aquatic animals because it settle and filter their food (filter feeder) and slow to be able to avoid the effects of pollution The Aim of this study are to determine the levels of mercury and methyl mercury predictions on blood shellfish (Anadara granosa). The process of sampling was done at coastal area of Sidayu and Banyu Urip district, Gresik then performed using Atomic Absorbance readings Spectrophotometric (AAS). This is a descriptive study and the data obtained, and then continued with stoichiometric calculations to predict the content of methyl mercury. Based on the analysis of mercury and prediction of methyl mercury in the blood shellfish (Anadara granosa) organs in coastal area of Sidayu and Banyu Urip district, Gresik, has not exceeded the threshold of SNI, the value is 0.5 ppm. Mercury contamination was high in blood clam shell with the average value of 0.273 ppm and 0.293 ppm, followed by the stomach and intestines shell with an average value of 0.226 ppm and 0.281 ppm. Lowest contamination is on the organ gill, liver, and kidneys with the average value of 0.150 ppm and 0.133 ppm.

Blood cockles (Anadara granosa) are filter feeder that can accumulate heavy metals and microbes so that need to pay attention to the maximum intake. The objective of this study was to evaluate the content of Fe, Zn, a total of microbes and maximum tolerable intake value (MTI). The study employed quantitative analysis. The samples were collected from Wonggarasi Timur Village, Pohuwato Regency, Gorontalo, Indonesia. The determination of Fe and Zn was carried out through Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer and the microbes total was done by using the Total Plate Count test. Maximum Tolerable Intake value was calculated according to the provisions of JEFCA. The results of the study showed that the Fe and Zn average of blood cockles ranged from 227.85±5.04 ppm – 247.98±6.77ppm and 2.77±0.07ppm-2.82±0.09ppm. Microbes total ranged from 1.7 x 103 colonies/g – 2.4 x 103 colonies/g. The MTI value assumed for person weighing 70 kg based on Fe and Zn content of blood cockle is 0.226kg/day - 0.467kg/day and 24.822kg/day - 24.911kg/day. Blood cockles are a source of Fe, Zn and are safe for consumption according to MTI. Consumption of blood cockles helps reduce the problem of deficiency of Fe and Zn. The content of Fe is higher than the content of Zn in blood cockles. Blood cockles from Pohuwato regency are safe for consumption according to MTI. The microbes total in blood cockles ranged from 1.7x103 colonies/g -2, 4x 103 colonies/g. This total is below the Badan Pengawas Obat dan Makanan/ Indonesian National Agency of Drug and Food Control (BPOM) standard, which is 5 x 105 CFU/g so that the blood cockles are safe for consumption.

Land utilization changes of the natural resources conservation area of Pangandaran coastal area, that have been utilized as a marine tourism area, which affect many kinds of environmental degradation threats. Updating the condition of Pangandaran waters is essential due to its condition impacted by anthropogenic activities. Water condition monitoring was done by measuring nutrients as an indicator to assess the water fertility and pollution. Fourty five observation points were selected and divided into three locations, representing the condition of river, estuary/mangrove area, and open sea. Nutrients were analyzed by employing Standard Methods for The Examination of Water and Wastewater 22nd Edition 2012 (SMEWW). Currents and tides were measured for 15 days, used as the basis input of hydrodynamic model. The results showed that the highest of average value of nitrate was found in the estuary/mangrove forest which reached 0.998 mg.L-1. While, the highest phosphate content was observed in the river which reached 0.928 mg.L-1. The highest ammonia concentration was observed in the sea which reached 0.027 mg.L-1. N:P ratios in the study area are categorized <16, which showed that Pangandaran waters are in the condition of N-limitation. These conditions trigger blooming of phytoplankton due to the high concentration of nitrate. The higher nutrient concentration indicates that anthropogenic activities take place. Tidal current has an important role transporting nutrient in the estuary, triggering nutrient deposition and blooming tendency. Restrictions on residential areas and the utilization of coastal areas are an appropriate step to reduce the pollution level in Pangandaran waters.

Samples of yellow eel from various locations in the Dutch Rhine area have been analyzed for trend monitoring of mercury since 1977. In the western Rhine delta mercury levels in eels have hardly changed since the seventies, whereas in the eastern part of the Dutch Rhine area a considerable decrease of mercury concentrations in eel has occurred. Because of continuous sedimentation of contaminated suspended matter transported from upstream regions, accumulation rates and concentrations of mercury in eel in the western Rhine delta remained at a relatively high level. Analyses of methyl mercury in biota have been performed to elucidate the role of methyl mercury in the mercury contamination of the Dutch Rhine ecosystem. Low percentages of methyl mercury were observed in zooplankton (3 to 35%). In benthic organisms (mussels) percentages of methyl mercury ranged from 30 to 57%, while in fish species and liver of aquatic top predator birds almost all the mercury was present in the form of methyl mercury (&gt; 80%). During the period 1970-1990 mercury concentrations of suspended matter in the eastern Rhine delta have drastically decreased. These concentrations seemed to be highly correlated with mercury concentrations of eel (R = 0.84). The consequences of this relation are discussed.

Assessment of the pollution for the selected six heavy metals (Pb, Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn and Ni) in ten surface sediments sampled from Aha Lake in a dry season was made in the present investigation. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to assess the sources of the heavy metals contamination and two components were extracted. Analysis of the lake characteristics and point source pollution revealed that the discharge of industrial effluent and coal mining wastewater were the possible sources of these heavy metals contamination. Based on the speciation characteristics of heavy metals in sediments, the method ratio of secondary phase to primary phase (RSP) was applied to evaluate the loadings and the bioavailability of these heavy metals. The RSP evaluation exhibited that Pb, Zn, Fe, Mn and Ni were mainly associated with Fe-Mn oxides besides residual phase, while Cu mainly existed in organic phase and residual phase. In summary, the potential risk posed to the lake caused by the heavy metals was high and descended in the order of Mn > Ni > Zn > Pb > Cu > Fe.

This research aimed to utilize Anadara Granosa (Blood clam shell) clamshell waste as a new innovation in concrete technology and to investigate the effect of Anadara Granosa clamshell powder utilization as an aggregate substitution on the concrete compressive strength. The sample size was made of cylinders with a size of 10 cm x 20 cm with variations of clamshell powder 10%, 20% and 30% from the fine aggregate volume then soaked for 28 days as per the method of the Indonesian National Standard. The evaluation results exhibited that the slump value exceeded the slump value of normal concrete with a slump value of 0% = 160 mm, 10% = 165 mm, 20% = 180 mm and 30% = 180 mm. Additionally, it was found that the concrete compressive strength obtained post 28 days were 20.78 Mpa, 21.95 Mpa, 21.17 Mpa and 24.28 Mpa for normal concrete (0%), substitution concrete (10%), substitution concrete (20%) and substitution concrete (30%), respectively. Leading on from these results, it was concluded that the increment of Anadara Granosa clamshell powder substitution led to the increase of concrete compressive strength test.
