The Water Quality and Nutrients Status in the Dungun River Basin, Terengganu

نویسندگان

چکیده

This study investigated the spatial variation of nitrogen (N)-based and phosphorus (P)-based nutrients together with water quality parameters (temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, biological oxygen demand, chemical demand total suspended solids) in Dungun River basin, Terengganu. The Water Quality Index (WQI) river was applied according to Malaysian Department Environment (DOE-WQI) classified based on National Standard (NWQS). Results showed that major source deterioration basin most likely due effluent discharged from nearby palm oil factory. overall WQI mean value obtained 85.44%, which indicated a clean condition categorised into Class II NWQS classification. mass N:P ratio 19.8:1 algal growth generally controlled by P-based nutrients. Based this study, it is suggested continuous monitoring necessary be carried out for proper management basin.

Distribution of Total Petrogenic Hydrocarbon in Dungun River Basin, Malaysia

A study was carried out in the Dungun River basin, southern South China Sea coastal area, during the period of March-July 2003 to determine the distribution of total petrogenic hydrocarbon (TPH). Surface water samples were collected and TPH determined using UVfluorescence spectroscopy. The results showed that the concentration of TPH was in the range of 2.0-40.8 μg/L (mean 12.9 ± 8.8 μg/L). The...
