Abstract:

Karang Mumus River is one of the Mahakam tributaries that passes through Samarinda city. Strategic location for water sources and easy access to workplaces make the Karang Mumus Riverbank a residential destination for migrants in Samarinda. People who live along the riverbank still consume the river water for various purposes. The river water is used for bathing, washing clothes and eating utensils, as well as for other purposes. Home industries such as tofu and tempeh industries also utilize the river water. Traditional markets also use it mainly to wash fish and chicken. These facts in
addition to being able to have an impact on public health also contribute to the decline in the quality of the Karang Mumus River. The purpose of this study was to determine the carrying capacity of river water for total suspended solids (TSS), dissolved oxygen (DO), biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), total phosphorus, and Coliform parameters by using the QUAL2KW program. The determination of carrying capacity is done by making a simulation of the model that has been done. The carrying capacity of the Karang Mumus River can be determined from simulations that condition the source of pollutants originating from tributaries and drainage channels that have met the Class II water quality standards. The determination of the carrying capacity of the Karang Mumus River for TSS, DO, BOD, total phosphorus, and Coliform parameters show that the Karang Mumus River only has a carrying capacity of the P-total parameter, whereas the TSS, DO, BOD, and Coliform bacteria parameters have exceeded the carrying capacity.
