Analysis of Air, Water and Noise Level Quality Due to Industrials Activities in Aceh Province

Abstract

Air pollution throughout the world, in general, has been at a very alarming rate with the increase in industrial and human activities. In Indonesia, the level of air pollution caused by various industries, especially from motor vehicles, is no longer a secret. Particularly, in the province of Aceh, air, water, and air noise quality in recent years have resulted in deteriorating health for humans and living things. This research analyzed air quality, water odor, and air noise level in the Aceh Province. The results for air quality analysis show an increase in emissions. The noise level of the three regions analyzed is still below the thresholds set. Meanwhile, the results of water odor analysis show its level has exceeded the thresholds set by the Ministry of Environment. Therefore, industrial activities can have an impact on the environment when they are not managed appropriately.
