CHARACTERISTICS OF POLLUTERS IN THE WORKING ENVIRONMENT OF PT X PALEMBANG CITYFERLY OKTRIYEDI, IRFANNUDDIN, NGUDIANTORO, M. HATTA DAHLAN AND NURHAYATIAbstract Rubber is one of the leading commodities in South Sumatra. In each of these forms of natural rubber production causes pollution in air, water, odor, and tatal/solid waste. This research will measure the concentration of ammonia (NH3) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in air, liquid and solid waste in the rubber factory environment. At the time of measurement in the air the average temperature was 31.9 C, the average pressure was 1011.75 bar, and the average humidity was 70.9%. The dominant wind is to the southeast. The highest concentrations of NH3 and H2S are in the leum area. The concentration of each is 1.51 ppm with an average of 1.03 ± 0.42 ppm and 9.34 ppm with an average of 2.97 ± 4.29 ppm. The concentration of NH3 and H2S in wastewater is the highest in wastewater treatment. The concentrations of each were 65 mg/l with a mean of 33.67 ± 27.79 mg/l and 1.70 mg/l with a mean of 0.79 ± 0.82 mg/l. The highest NH3 concentration was in tatal, while the highest H2S concentration was in the slab. The concentrations of each were 194.88 mg/Kg with an average of 148.88 ± 65.05 mg / Kg and 1.37 mg/Kg with an average of 1.27 ± 0.15 mg/Kg. |
