Abstract

Melaka's rivers, essential for agriculture, drinking water, and transportation, face growing pollution challenges due to urbanization and industry, threatening their ecological balance. This study delved into the assessment of river water quality in Melaka and the design of a practical water treatment device tailored for river water purification. Extensive testing, involving Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and pH analysis, shed light on the existing poor state of the Melaka River water. The devised water treatment device, encompassing diverse filter materials and a submersible pump, yielded noteworthy outcomes. Notably, experiment 4, employing activated carbon and cotton wool for both inlet and outlet, demonstrated the highest efficacy, reducing TDS levels by a remarkable 44.21%, surpassing other trials. The employed materials exhibited the potential to neutralize pH levels and clarify river water, with cotton wool effectively trapping residues and impurities.

马六甲河水处理的创新解决方案
马六甲的河流对农业、饮用水和交通至关重要,但由于城市化和工业的发展,这些河流面临着日益严重的污染挑战,威胁着河流的生态平衡。本研究对马六甲的河流水质进行了评估,并设计了一种专为河流水净化而设计的实用水处理设备。广泛的测试,包括总溶解固体(TDS)和 pH 值分析,揭示了马六甲河水目前的不良状况。所设计的水处理设备包括各种过滤材料和潜水泵,取得了显著成效。值得注意的是,实验 4 在进水口和出水口都使用了活性炭和棉絮,效果最好,TDS 含量显著降低了 44.21%,超过了其他试验。所采用的材料具有中和 pH 值和澄清河水的潜力,其中棉絮能有效截留残留物和杂质。
