Abstract

The pollution of the Langat River at Kajang was examined in terms of domestic sewage discharge. The effects of domestic sewage were studied. The water quality data obtained from effluents discharged at two selected sites along the Sungai Langat was used to develop indicators for sewage pollution. A model based on the Pressure-State-Response (PSR) concept was suggested for the development of possible indicators for the Langat River for the management of sewage discharge.

Pencemaran Sungai Langat di daerah Kajang diteliti dari segi perlepasan kumbahan domestik. Kesan kumbahan domestik ke atas sistem sungai dikaji. Data kualiti air daripada dua tapak perlepasan kumbahan domestik di sepanjang Sg. Langat digunakan untuk mengembangkan penunjuk bagi pencemaran kumbahan. Satu model yang berasaskan konsep tekanan-keadaan-rangsangan (PSR) dicadangkan untuk tujuan pembentukan penunjuk yang sesuai untuk pengurusan perlepasan kumbahan domestik di Sg. Langat.
