The method used in this research is a survey method, with primary data obtained through interviews with fishermen and traders in Tanjung Medang Village. The supply chain pattern analysi…
The perception of the fishing community about the communication style of the village head on the level of participation of fishermen in village activities at this time for them is not appropriate and cannot provide what they need. The purpose of this study is to analyze the fishermen's perception of the communication style of the village head, the level of fishermen's participation in village a…
Tenggek Prawn is a high value fishery commodity that dominates the catch in the waters of Tanah Merah District. However, increasing fishing activity in recent years has raised concerns about the potential for overfishing. This study aims to analyze the level of fishing effort for tenggek prawn using a bioeconomic approach under three conditions: maximum sustainable yield (MSY), maximum economic…
Kampar Kiri Hilir sub-district is one of the sub-districts in Kampar Regency which has the potential of the freshwater fisheries sub-sector businnes because it is supported by natural resources in the form of the Kampar Kiri River.

ABSTRACT Empty Palm Fruit Bunch (EFB) is a by-product of the palm oil industry that is abundant in Riau Province. The high cellulose content in EFB has the potential to be developed as a basic material for making activated carbon, which is the type of adsorbent most widely developed for heavy metal adsorption. This study aims to analyze the best carbonization temperature and time on the qu…
ABSTRACT Printing wastewater contains heavy metals such as lead (Pb) and copper (Cu), which are toxic. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of pH and stirring speed on the adsorption efficiency and capacity of Pb and Cu using a composite adsorbent of Spent Bleaching Earth (SBE) and Spent Mushroom Substrate (SMS) with a composition ratio of 25% SBE and 75% SMS. Characterization was conducted…
ABSTRACT Industrial printing wastewater contains heavy metals such as lead (Pb) and copper (Cu), which are toxic and difficult to degrade, thus requiring an effective treatment method. One alternative to reduce heavy metals is the adsorption method using a composite adsorbent made from Spent Mushroom Substrate (SMS) and Spent Bleaching Earth (SBE). This study aims to determine the removal …
ABSTRACT The problem of leaf litter and ketapang twig accumulation at the Faculty of Engineering, University of Riau, has prompted innovative efforts in its management.
