Mengidentifikasi Nilai Xm Dan Kandungan Logam Berat Air Sumur Bor Masyarakat Perumnas Rumbai
Most people in urban areas use drilled wells as a source of water to meet their
daily needs. This study aims to identify the value of magnetic susceptibility and
heavy metal content in community drilled well water in Perumnas Rumbai,
Rumbai Pesisir district. The Quincke method is used to determine the magnetic
susceptibility value of a sample in the form of a liquid which consists of two
stages, namely measuring magnetic induction using a Gauss Meter and changes in
the increase in liquid level. The highest magnetic susceptibility value results from
sample B6 which value of 4.14 x 10-4 with a drilled well depth of 25 m, while the
lowest magnetic susceptibility value results from sample C12 and C13 which have
the same values that is 0.63 x 10-4 in which those two wells C12 and C13 has
different in depth namely 80 m and 15 m, respevtively. The relationship between
the magnetic susceptibility value and the depth of the drilled wells in the sample is
influenced by two factors, namely the household waste factor and the physical
properties of the soil such as magnetic properties. Measurement of heavy metal
content using Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS), found that the
elements of Iron (Fe) and Manganese (Mn) in sample B6 the highest value of 0.68
mg/L and 0.20 mg/L, respectively. The lowest value of Fe and Mn concentration
in sample C14 is 0.33 mg/L and 0.11 mg/L, respevtively. The results of the above
values indicate that the magnetic susceptibility value is directly proportional to the
heavy metal content.
