Abstract

Introduction: The mining process that has been carried out for a long time in large quantities often ignores environmental sustainability which in the end can result in various negative impacts that are felt in the short and long term. The purpose of the study was to determine the level of air pollution by Nickel dust and to analyze the relationship between exposure to Nickel dust and ARI disease in people living around the Nickel mining industry in Pomalaa District. Method: This study uses a cross-sectional design using a non-interventional type of research conducted in residential areas around the mining area of ​​PT Aneka Tambang Tbk, Kolaka Regency, Southeast Sulawesi Province as a mining designation area, namely in Pomalaa District. Result: The results showed that the average outdoor air quality for the S02 parameter in the designated area was higher than in the non-designated area, as well as for the N02 parameter, for the H2S parameter in both areas the average value was the same, but for the PM10 value in the designated area is higher than in the non-designated area, while the temperature, humidity, and wind speed in the two areas are almost the same. Conclusion: This is in line with the results of research conducted by Qomariyatus S (in 2007) conducted around the coal mine of PT Aneka Tambang,Southeast Sulawesi showed that the level of respirable dust in the field slightly exceeded the normal threshold value of 2.19 mg/m3.

Abstract

Introduction:Initial observation of mining industry community in Kolaka Regency Poor air circulation causes smoke to not be able to fully exit through the chimney, so that the combustion chamber looks dirty and dusty and exits through the existing gaps to the community's residential environment. ISPA is one of the diseases with a fairly high morbidity and mortality rate, so it is necessary to carry out integrated, targeted handling aimed at improving environmental quality. This study is to analyze the relationship between air quality and the incidence of respiratory infections of ISPA in communities around the mining industry location (Pomalaa District) and non-mining industry location in Kolaka Regency. Method:Quantitative research using Descriptive Retrospective research design. The target population in this study is the entire community in the area around the Nickel Mining and industrial centers in Kolaka Regency. Samples were taken using the stratified random sampling method totaling 126 respondents. Result:There is a very strong relationship between the results of air quality measurements of PM10 and CO parameter values ​​with an increase in the incidence of ISPA. While for the PM2.5 air quality value there is a strong relationship, and for other air quality parameters such as SO2, NO2, and O3 there is no relationship with the incidence of ISPA or a moderate or even weak relationship. Conclusion: Reducing the use of private vehicles by providing public transportation, or the company providing employee buses to reduce the intensity of air quality decline due to dense vehicles around mining and non-mining areas.
