“…These values aligned with the finding by [6] and [7] for spring water flow from fractures in granite rocks in Semenyih, Malaysia with pH range of 6.7. [6,19] reported that the pH of water sources in hot spring around Selangor, Malaysia is characterized as alkaline, and this might be due to geological composition of the region [8] tested a spring water from the hill of Ulu Yam also shows the pH value for hill water is 6.8 and almost neutral. The pH of water and the amount of TDS are related.…”

“…Water quality index (WQI) is a measure of the physical, chemical and biological characteristics of water [29]. Recently, several studies have focused on monitoring spring water quality in international [33,35] and Malaysia [6,7,8,9]. In Malaysia, spring water quality evaluation and monitoring have received little attention, therefore, these types of analyses are needed to understand the physiochemical and quality changes of spring water.…”

Water has become a necessity in our daily life. The impact of unsafe water on the consumer is critically alarmed and has contributed human health problem. An alternative clean water sources as a water supply should be sustainable solution to overcome this problem. Malaysia is located at the equator to have rain and hot weather along the year. Therefore, the possible use of spring water as an alternative clean water source will improve the quality of water consumption especially for small community in rural area. The aim of this study is to investigate the performance of spring water sources located in National Defence University of Malaysia (NDUM) campus to support the Green Campus champaign. The spring water analysis was performed for various physicochemical during February 2020. Temperature, pH, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solid, total suspended solid and dissolved oxygen were measured to generate water quality index. The results demonstrated the water samples were found to be suitable for use were within permissible limits except pH were close to or exceeded the permissible limit of standards, which indicates that requirement of treatment prior to use. The outcome of this study may contribute to propose the new way of monitoring water quality in campus by using real-time system. In addition, the outcome also to provides the baseline information about water quality for the welfare of society, support the green campus campaign and that may also help in future water security and sustainability planning for the NDUM campus area.

“…Ammoniacal Nitrogen is a water quality parameter that determines the degree of pollution based on the growth of algae. The growth of algae contributes to the eutrophication process in a water body [13]. The ammonia nitrogen concentrations ranged between a minimum of 0.31 mg/L in 2008 and a maximum of 1.85 mg/L in 2016.…”

Kedah River plays an important role in providing habitat for aquatic plants, animals, and it has been widely used by humans for recreation purposes. However, rapid development and urbanization activities along the river have significantly impacted the surface water quality in the watershed. Nowadays, Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) is one of the best approaches for restoring an impaired watershed. TMDL is used to identify the maximum concentration of pollutants that a waterbody can receive without violating the water quality standards. This study was intended to conduct a TMDL assessment for five water quality parameters which are turbidity, suspended solids (SS), Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), and Ammoniacal Nitrogen (NH3N). The calculation includes identifying the existing load, target pollutant load, and the endurance capacity of load using secondary data adopted from DOE. Risk Quotients (RQs) analysis was included in this TMDL study to address the water health systematically. From the result, most of the existing pollutant from year 2013 to 2017 exceeded the standard value of Class IIA by NWQS especially for SS, BOD, and NH3N.

“…The nitrogen compound is a fertilizer that can induce algal boom, lowering oxygen levels in the water, while ammonia-nitrogen is harmful to marine organisms [114]. Ammoniacal nitrogen has been listed as one of the major contaminants polluting several rivers, that is contribute to the eutrophication mechanism is used to assess the water quality [115]. Temperature rises will degrade lake water quality by lowering hypolimnetic dissolved oxygen concentrations and increasing mineralization and nitrogen release from lake bottom sediments.…”

The Potential of Sustainable Biomass Producer Gas as a Waste-to-Energy Alternative in Malaysia

It has been widely accepted worldwide, that the greenhouse effect is by far the most challenging threat in the new century. Renewable energy has been adopted to prevent excessive greenhouse effects, and to enhance sustainable development. Malaysia has a large amount of biomass residue, which provides the country with the much needed support the foreseeable future. This investigation aims to analyze potentials biomass gases from major biomass residues in Malaysia. The potential biomass gasses can be obtained using biomass conversion technologies, including biological and thermo-chemical technologies. The thermo-chemical conversion technology includes four major biomass conversion technologies such as gasification, combustion, pyrolysis, and liquefaction. Biomass wastes can be attained through solid biomass technologies to obtain syngas which includes carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, oxygen, hydrogen, and nitrogen. The formation of tar occurs during the main of biomass conversion reaction such as gasification and pyrolysis. The formation of tar hinders equipment or infrastructure from catalytic aspects, which will be applied to prevent the formation of tar. The emission, combustion, and produced gas reactions were investigated. It will help to contribute the potential challenges and strategies, due to sustainable biomass, to harness resources management systems in Malaysia to reduce the problem of biomass residues and waste.
