Analysis of pH, Total Dissolved Solid (TDS), and Mn levels in Well Water in Cirebon Regency

Abstract

This study has been conducted to determine the levels of pH, Total Dissolved Solid (TDS), and manganese (Mn) from a well water in Cirebon (A), well water from Laboratorium Perumda Tirta Giri Nata Kota Cirebon (B), dan air Perumda Tirta Giri Nata Kota Cirebon (C). Sampling using a simple random sampling method. Analysis of pH and TDS using a conductometer ADWA AD8000. Concentration of Mn has been analyzed using HACH DR1900 spectrophotometer. The results show that the pH value of sample of A, B and C are 6.53, 7.00 and 6.78. The result of TDS are 381 mg/L, 421 mg/L and 176 mg/L for A, B and C sample respectively. Whilst, the concentration of Mn are 0.680 mg/L, 0.128 mg/L and 0.012 mg/L for A, B and C. Analysis of pH and TDS on all samples showed that they were within safe limits for clean water and drinking water.
