Abstract. Surface water quality monitoring (SWQM) provides essential information for water environmental protection. However, SWQM is costly and limited in terms of equipment and sites. The global popularity of social media and intelligent mobile devices with GPS and photography functions allows citizens to monitor surface water quality. This study aims to propose a method for SWQM using social media platforms. Specifically, a WeChat-based application platform is built to collect water quality reports from volunteers, which have been proven valuable for water quality monitoring. The methods for data screening and volunteer recruitment are discussed based on the collected reports. The proposed methods provide a framework for collecting water quality data from citizens and offer a primary foundation for big data analysis in future research.

ABSTRAKLatar belakang: Salah satu sumber air permukaan yang memiliki peran vital bagi ekosistem perairan dan makhluk hidup adalah sungai. Sungai Bedadung merupakan salah satu sungai besar yang melewati wilayah Perkotaan Kabupaten Jember. Air dari sungai tersebut dimanafaatkan sebagai pemasok air baku untuk PDAM Kabupaten Jember. Akan tetapi akibat tekanan aktivitas antropogenik menurunkan kualitas air sungai tersebut. Pemantauan kualitas air diperlukan sebagai salah satu pertimbangan pengendalian pencemaran pada air sungai tersebut. Tujuan penelitian ini mengidentifikasi kondisi kualitas air dan beban pencemaran di intake intalasi pengolahan air (IPA) PDAM Kabupaten Jember.Metode: Pengambilan contoh air secara grab sampling dilakukan di intake IPA Tegal Gede dan IPA Tegal Besar dengan beberapa parameter kualitas air yang diamati yaitu suhu, kekeruhan, TDS, pH, DO, BOD, COD, yang dibandingkan dengan baku mutu Peraturan Pemerintah Republik Indonesia Nomor 82 tahun 2001 serta debit air yang digunakan untuk menghitung beban pencemaran serta dilanjutkan uji t untuk mengetahui perbandingan kondisi beban pencemaran.Hasil: Hasil penelitian menujukkan bahwa kualitas air sungai di intake IPA Tegal Gede dan IPA Tegal Besar secara berurutan tergolong kelas I dan III. Nilai COD di intake IPA Tegal Besar tergolong kelas III. Nilai beban pencemaran menujukkan perbedaan yang signifikan pada kedua intake IPA. Beban pencamaran di IPA Tegal Gede dan Tegal Besar dengan nilai rata-rata secara berurutan yaitu 24,96 kg/hari dan 74,03 kg/hari.Simpulan: Kualitas air Sungai Bedadung berdasarkan parameter fisika dan kimia di intake IPA Tegal Gede di IPA Tegal Besar secara berurutan tergolong kelas I dan III serta kondisi beban pencemaranya beragam.ABSTRACTBackground: River as one of surface water resources has a vital role for ecosystems and organism. Jember Regency Municipal Waterworks utilized the river as water raw resources. However, the pressure of anthropogenic activity decreases the river's water quality. Water quality monitoring is needed as a consideration for pollution controlling in the river. The focus research identified the condition of water quality and pollution load in the water treatment plants (WTP) intake of Jember Regency Municipal Waterworkers.Method: The water sampling by grab sampling was carried out at intake of Tegal Gede and Tegal Besar WTP with several observed pysicochemical parameters i.e temperature, turbidity, TDS, pH, DO, BOD, COD compered with the quality standard of Government Regulation No. 82 of 2001 and stream flow for pollution load measurement and continued by t-test to compire the pollution load conditions.Result: The results denote that the water quality in Tegal Gede and Tegal Besar WTP intakes were classified into first (I) and third (III) class. COD caused water quality decreased in intake of Tegal Besar WTP. The t-test of the pollution load represented a significantly difference at the both water treatment plants locations. Pollution load at Tegal Gede and Tegal Besar WTP showed the average values of 24.96 kg/day and 74.03 kg/day. Conclusion: The water quality refer to physicochemical parameter in intake of Tegal Gede and Tegal Besar were categorized WTP into first (I) and third (III) class, furthermore the condition of the pollution load varies.

Water quality assessments provide essential information for protecting aquatic habitats and stakeholders downstream of mining sites. Moreover, mining companies must comply with environmental quality standards and include public participation in water quality monitoring (WQM) practices. However, overarching challenges beyond corporate environmental responsibility are the scientific soundness, political relevance and harmonization of WQM practices. In this study, a mountainous watershed supporting large-scale gold mining in the headwaters, besides urban and agricultural landuses at lower altitudes, is assessed in the dry season. Conventional physicochemical and biological (Biological Monitoring Water Party-Colombia index) freshwater quality parameters were evaluated, including hydromorphological and land-use characteristics. According to the indicators used, water quality deterioration by mining was absent, in contrast to the effects of urban economic activities, hydromorphological alterations and (less important) agricultural pollutants. We argue that mining impacts are hardly captured due to the limited ecological knowledge of high-mountain freshwaters, including uncharacterized mining-specific bioindicators, environmental baselines and groundwater processes, as well as ecotoxicological and microbial freshwater quality components. Lessons for overcoming scientific and operational challenges are drawn from joint efforts among governments, academia and green economy competitiveness. Facing a rapid development of extractive industries, interinstitutional and multidisciplinary collaborations are urgently needed to implement more integrated freshwater quality indicators of complex mining impacts.

The purposes of this study were to determine the water quality, concentration and distribution of Hg in the surface water of Banyuasin river estuary. This research was conducted in June 2016 with 26 sampling stations. Measurement of in situ water quality was done using Conductivity Temperature Depth (CTD) multiparameter profiler while Hg metal was measured using Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS).  The data obtained was interpolated by Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) and then mapped spatially. The results showed that in general the water quality in Banyuasin river estuary still meets the seawater quality standards for marine biota based on KepMenLH no. 51 in 2004. The concentration of Hg in Banyuasin river estuary ranges from 0.001-0.032 mg/L with a distribution pattern that generally increases towards the ocean. The Hg concentration at the Banyuasin river estuary is on the maximum limit and exceeds the quality standard for marine biota.

The quality of Klang river water is deteriorating dramatically since it is in urban places every day and become one of the major problems.  Therefore, the Malaysian government had initiated one river cleaning project named River of Life (ROL) project. This project is for rehabilitating and restoring the Klang river. A series of river water treatment plant (RWTP)s have been operated in Klang river catchment since 2014. Six RWTPs station has been monitored up to eight stations until presents. Eight parameters consisting of physio-chemical types and biological types have been recorded. RWTP effluent discharges are targeted to achieve Malaysia Interim National Water Quality Standard (INWQS) under Class II B. Since previous RWTP performance only emphasized on local river pollutants and certain conditions, this paper will investigate the effectiveness of full-scale RWTP unit process for river condition. Water quality assessment are involved which are consist of effluent water quality monitoring and pollutant removal efficiency. Most of the major pollutants able to be reduced by more than 50% reduction. Although BOD and AN still not able to achieve standard range gazetted by INWQS Class IIB, there is an improvement of river water quality at Klang River by using IFAS technology adopted in the RWTP system.
