The Effectiveness of Various Types of Orange (Citrus Sp.) to the Reduction of Pb (Lead) and Cd (Cadmium) Heavy Metals Concentration on White Shrimp (Panaeus Marguiensis)
Abstract: The results of
research Wahyudi (2010) which states that the white shrimp are found in Gesek
coastal Sedati-Sidoarjo that polluted heavy metal of Pb at 0.75 mg / kg and Cd
of 0.18 mg / kg. Hence, the white shrimp is not safe to be consumed people. The
aim of this study was to reduce of concentrations of Pb (Lead) and Cd (Cadmium)
heavy metals on the white shrimp with various type of orange. The Completely
Randomized Design (RAL) with two variables was used in this study, ie the types
of orange (Citrus sp.) and the concentrations variable (50% and 100%). The
results obtained from this research that the final of concentrations of Pb
(Lead) and Cd (Cadmium) heavy metals on white shrimp after immersion lime and
lemon with different concentrations (50% and 100%). ICP-OES (inductively
coupled plasma optical emission spectrophometer) was used to determine the
concentrations of heavy metals on the body of the white shrimp and the
experiment was conducted at the laboratory of
the Energy and Engineering study ITS. The data obtained were analyzed
using analysis of variance two-way (ANAVA). The results of this research showed
that there was no difference on the types of both oranges and the
concentrations of orange (100% and 50%) to
reduction of the concentrations of heavy metals on the body of the white
shrimp (Panaeus marguensis).
