Kajian Fragmentasi Polypropylene Akibat Radiasi Sinar Ultraviolet dan Kecepatan Aliran Air

Abstract: Print) C28 Abstrak-Plastik jenis polypropylene (PP) yang banyak digunakan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari telah menyebabkan pencemaran mikroplastik (MP) di badan air. MP dapat dihasilkan dari fragmentasi PP akibat radiasi sinar ultraviolet (UV) dan degradasi secara mekanik. Degradasi secara mekanik dapat diakibatkan oleh kecepatan aliran air dengan maupun tanpa adanya sedimen. Keberadaan MP di lingkungan perairan dapat berpotensi bahaya bagi biota akuatik hingga manusia. Studi ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji mekanism… Show more

“…Higher microplastics in FA is likely due to the partitions of polypropylene (PP) plastic and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) plastic ropes that undergo fragmentation through photodegradation when exposured to UV radiation; biodegradation by microorganisms and mechanical abrasion by sand and/or sediment [5]. According to the study by [29], polypropylene plastic exposed to UV radiation and mechanical degradation can form 6084±1061 microplastic particles within 12 months. Another study by [30] tested the degradation rate of plastics with different polymers; in which the degradation rate of PP is 7.5 µm/year, and HDPE is 4.3 µm/year.…”

“…Fish Apartments units in Pasir Putih, Situbondo consisted by partition unit made from PP plastic. Although highly durable, this type of plastic will be degraded or fragmented over time, by means of photodegradation (UV exposure), biodegradation (by microorganism) and/or mechanical abrasion by sand and sediment [5,29]. Therefore, it is assumed that partition units of FA highly contribute to the abundance of fragment shape in the water column.…”
