Public Health Centers, as healthcare facilities that generate waste, have a responsibility to maintain the environment and public health. Public Health Centers generate medical waste that poses a threat to health. The waste issue of concern is infectious waste or solid medical waste, particularly hazardous and toxic waste (B3). The management of solid medical waste at Public Health Centers in B…
ABSTRACT Palm oil harvesting are carried out by workers in a standing position and lifting egrek, which puts them at risk of musculoskeletal disorders. This study aims to analyze work posture using the Rapid Entire Body Asssessment (REBA) Method At PT. XYZ. Pulse rate measurement using a pulse oximeter and data collection on complaints among harvesters using the Nordic Body Map (NBM) quest…
ABSTRACT Peat water possesses very high color intensity due to its organic content, requiring an effective adsorption technology for its removal. Porous fly ash based geopolymers present a promising alternative because of their stable aluminosilicate structure and tunable porosity. This study focuses on synthesizing and optimizing porous geopolymers for peat water color removal using Response …
ABSTRACT Peat water serves as a potential alternative water source for communities living in peatland areas. However, it cannot be used directly due to its high iron content, low acidity (pH), and dark color. Therefore, a simple treatment technology is required to remove color and iron to make the water suitable for public use. The tray aerator method combined with geopolymer media offers a so…
ABSTRACT Peat water has characteristics of reddish-brown color, acidic pH, and high dissolved organic matter content, especially hydrophobic and hydrophilic fractions. These fractions cause the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) such as THM and HAA, which are harmful to health. Coagulation is an effective method used to reduce organic matter content in peat water, but the use of synt…
ABSTRACT Peat water contains high levels of dissolved organic matter (DOM). DOM can be classified into four fractions, which are strongly hydrophobic (HPOA), weakly hydrophobic (TPH), charged hydrophilic (HPIC), and neutral hydrophilic (HPIN). These fractions can cause the formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) such as THM and HAA, so treatment is need to make it suitable for daily use. …
ABSTRACT The increase in population and industrial activity in the Payung Sekaki District of Pekanbaru City has had an impact on the increase in waste entering the Muara Fajar landfill. According to Presidential Regulation No. 97 of 2017, 30% of waste must be managed at the source, and the limited capacity of each subdistrict to reduce waste is one of the main problems that is predicted to con…
ABSTRACT The high accumulation of soybean seed coat and tofu dregs waste contributes to environmental problems, therefore, an effective and eco-friendly waste management alternative is needed. One potential solution is the utilization of Black Soldier Fly (BSF) larvae. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of fermented feed variations of soybean seed coat and tofu dregs on the performanc…
ABSTRACT The activity of loading fresh fruit bunches (FFB) in PT XYZ is still carried out manually using simple tools such as a T-hook or tojok. Non-ergonomic working postures and heavy physical workload have the potential to cause Musculoskeletal Disorders (MSDs). This study aims to analyze the level of postural risk using the Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA) method assisted by the Ergo…
ABSTRACT The waste management issue in Binawidya District remains a challenge due to low public awareness of paying waste service retribution fees. This condition has the potential to hinder the sustainability of an effective waste management system. This study aims to analyze the community’s Willingness To Pay (WTP) and Ability To Pay (ATP), as well as identify the factors that influenc…
The intensive use of chemical herbicides in agriculture has had serious impacts on the environment, human health, and ecosystem sustainability. These impacts include soil, water, and air pollution, as well as health risks due to exposure to hazardous active ingredients. As a solution, this study examines the potential of ketapang leaf extract (Terminalia catappa L.) as an environmentally friend…
Silvofishery is a land management system that integrates mangrove ecosystem conservation with aquaculture activities in one area. This approach combines ecological, economic, and social aspects, providing dual benefits in the form of environmental preservation and improved welfare for coastal communities. The research was conducted from August to December 2024 in the village of Buruk Bakul…
This research is motivated by issues of sustainability in aquaculture management in Rambah District, Rokan Hulu Regency. The main problems include ecological aspects such as declining environmental quality, occurrences of floods and droughts, as well as the entry of pollution sources that impact fish survival. Additionally, in the economic aspect, there are obstacles such as limited capita…
ABSTRACT Pelalawan Regency is one of the regencies in Riau Province with extensive peatland coverage. Human activities cause peatland cover in Pelalawan Regency to change from year to year, so it is necessary to monitor changes in peatland cover and carbon stocks in Pelalawan Regency. The purpose of this study is to calculate changes in peatland cover area and changes in carbon stocks resu…
ABSTRACT Indonesia ranks 8th as the largest food waste-producing country in the world, with an annual generation of 14.73 million tons. The high amount of food waste can significantly contribute to climate change, as greenhouse gas emissions from food waste reach 4,051.5 kgCO₂e per ton. This study aims to determine the generation and composition of food waste from the canteens of the Faculty …
