Long-term traffic pattern forecasting using dynamic classifier selection
Authors: Kianifar Mohammad Ali , Motallebi Hassan , Bardsiri Vahid Khatibi
Published: March 2023

Dynamic Classifier Selection (DCS) techniques aim to select the most competent classifiers from an ensemble per test sample. For each test sample, only a subset of the most competent classifiers is used to estimate its target value. The performance of the DCS highly depends on how we define the local region of competence, which is a local region in the feature space around the test sample. In this paper, we propose a new definition of region of competence based on a new proximity measure. We exploit the observed similarities between traffic profiles at different links, days and hours to obtain similarities between different values. Furthermore, long-term traffic pattern prediction is a complex problem and most of the traffic prediction literature are based on time-series and regression approaches and their prediction time is limited to next few hours or days. We tackle the long-term traffic pattern prediction as a classification of discretized traffic indicators to improve the accuracy of urban traffic pattern forecasting of next weeks by using DCS. We also employ two different link clustering methods, for grouping traffic links. For each cluster, we train a dynamic classifier system for predicting the traffic variables (flow, speed and journey time). Our results on strategic road network data shows that the proposed method outperforms the existing ensemble and baseline models in long-term traffic prediction.

Published: March 2023

The water transmission and distribution process of the water supply pump station of the water purification plant plays a key role in the entire urban water supply system. When the requirements of water supply quantity and water pressure are satisfied, the reduction of operating energy consumption of the pump set and improvement of its service life are urgent problems. Therefore, to reduce the cost of water supply pump station, a mathematical model is established to minimize the energy consumption of pump group, the number of pump switches and the load balancing in this paper. In order to solve the pump scheduling problem, a two-stage strategy based on genetic algorithm is proposed. In stage one, the frequency conversion ratio and the number of pumps needed to be turned on at the lowest energy consumption are calculated. In stage two, through the improved genetic algorithm and iterative way to reduce the number of pump switches and load balancing. Finally, a case study from a real waterworks in Suzhou, China is used to verify the validity of the proposed model. Numerical results reveal that the improved genetic algorithm outperforms the competing algorithms. In addition, a proper sensitivity analysis allows assessing the effects under different pump operating conditions.
Impact of movie direction studies on Kurdish director

Published: April 2023

The distinctive success achieved by cinema, at the beginning of twentieth century, as a mass art with form and content, and the great power it has for recording and representing reality, on one hand, and the magical production power of images and subjects, most of it falls on the process of movie production, and the director appears as the first responsible of movies. When directing finds its path as a solid foundation in the world of movie making and cinema industry, then the outlook and idea of directors, as individuals or as groups, leads to up-rise of different studies of movie directing, where these studies constitute many principles and regulations of their own, which they build form and content of their films, and their influence will spread in the world of cinema extensively and become an important part of cinematic theories. Influences of these studies on movies and various cinematic productions of international directors can be seen and found, therefore in recent years we notice that Kurds were not exempt from these influences, and Kurdish movie directors were, directly or indirectly, making their movies under effects of these influences. These influences matched with the internal conditions of their people, their suffering, and their visions, according to message and content of the movies they include. On the other hand, due to the small budget required to produce a film, Kurdish filmmakers and directors need to make films with low cost and techniques and to be able to prove their imagination and ideas well.

Sosyal ağ siteleri (SAS), bireylerin hem çevrimdışı hayatta hem de çevrimiçi ortamda tanıdıklarının bir araya geldiği yerlerdir. Kullanıcı olarak bireyler SAS’ta yer alan profilleri üzerinden çeşitli paylaşımlar yapmaktadır. Instagram, hem dünyada hem de Türkiye’de popüler olan bir SAS’tır. Instagram, 2018 yılından bu yana hikâye paylaşımlarına ‘yakın arkadaş’ özelliğini getirmiştir. Bu özellik kullanıcıların yayınladıkları hikâyelerin sadece belirli bir grup tarafından görüntülenmesini sağlamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Instagram’da ‘yakın arkadaş’ özelliği kullanımının nedenlerini ve bu özelliğin kullanımının nasıl algılandığını anlamaktır. Araştırmada nitel yöntem uygulamalarından fenomenolojik desen kullanılmıştır ve amaçlı örneklem tercih edilmiştir. Veriler iki aşamalı olarak toplanmıştır. Birinci aşamada 200 kişiye ulaşılmış ve Google Formlar’da oluşturulan bir soru formu ile nitel veriler toplanmıştır. İkinci aşamada ise birinci aşamaya katılan 15 kişi ile derinlemesine görüşme yapılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda elde edilen verilerin bazılarını şöyle ifade etmek mümkündür: ‘Yakın arkadaş’ özelliğini kullanan katılımcıların Instagram’da ‘yakın arkadaş’ listesinde yer alan kişiler sadece çevrimdışı hayatta yakın arkadaşı olan kişiler değildir. Katılımcılar ‘yakın arkadaş’ listelerini belirlerken kapsamaya ya da dışarıda bırakmaya odaklanmaktadır. Kapsama için öne çıkan temalar şöyledir: İdeolojik yakınlık, benzer hayat tarzı, yargılanmama. Dışarıda bırakma nedenleri ise aile / akrabalar, iş ilişkileridir. Katılımcılar başkalarının ‘yakın arkadaş’ belirlemelerine ilişkin gözlemlerinde ise hayat tarzı ve bununla bağlantılı olarak alkol kullanımını belirtmişlerdir. Katılımcılar, genellikle başkalarının ‘yakın arkadaş’ listesinde olmaktan rahatsız olmadıklarını ifade etmiş ve ‘yakın arkadaş’ listesini güvenli alan olarak tanımlamıştır. ‘Yakın arkadaş’ özelliğini kullanmayan katılımcılar ise başkasının listesinde bulunmaktan memnun olmadıklarını ya da nötr olduklarını söylemiştir.

Yeni medya platformlarının kullanıcılara sağladığı imkanlara ve kullanıcıların bu platformlar aracılığıyla gerçekleşen çevrim içi eylemleri üzerine olumlu/olumsuz birçok tartışma söz konusudur. Gündelik yaşamda bireylerin medya ve teknoloji ile ilişkisini ele alan Jenkins, dijital teknolojilerin ortaya çıkardığı dönüşümün sadece araçsal bir çıktı hazırlamadığını aynı zamanda kültürel, toplumsal, ekonomik ve küresel sonuçları da beraberinde getirdiğini belirtmektedir. Jenkins, alternatif ve demokratik bir mecra olarak tanımladığı dijital medya ortamlarının ortaya çıkması ile geleneksel medyada var olan pasif tüketici-okuyucu-izleyicinin yerini aktif “katılımcıların” aldığını ve dijital medyada var olan kullanıcıların artık ortak bir kültür oluşturarak bilgiyi üretir konuma geçtiklerini savunmaktadır. Böylece dijital mecralar kolektif zekayı oluşturarak kullanıcıları, aktif katılımcı konumuna getirmektedir. Jenkins’e göre yeni medyanın aktif katılımcıları, dijital platformlarda yer alan içeriğin üretiminden, tüketimine, dağıtımından bu içeriğin duyurulmasına kadar her aşamasında üretken ve göçebe bir konumdadır. Jenkins, “Yakınsama-Yöndeşme, Katılımcı Kültür, Transmedya” gibi kavramlar üzerinden yeni medyayı; kullanıcıların birbirleriyle istedikleri zaman iletişime geçtikleri, fikir alışverişinde bulundukları, kendi içeriklerini oluşturabildikleri ve her an etkileşimde kalabildikleri demokratik bir mecra olarak karakterize etmektedir. Çalışmada, Jenkins’in günümüzde yakınsama, katılımcı kültür ve transmedya hikâyeciliği gibi tartışmalara konu olan kavramsallaştırmaları irdelenerek, dijital medya platformlarının ve yeni katılımcıların özelliklerini Jenkins’in bakış açısıyla ortaya koymak amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışma ayrıca Jenkins’in yeni medya üzerine tartıştığı kavramları Türkçe’ye çevrilmemiş eserlerinden örnekler ile irdeleyerek alana katkı sağlama amacı taşımaktadır.
Kushikuy, diseño de tarjetas educativas para la enseñanza-aprendizaje de palabras básicas en quechua
Authors: Bruno López Mercy , Vivanco Rafael , Pérez Albela Stuart Ruperto
Published: April 2023

El Perú es un país multicultural en el que se hablan diversos idiomas y dialectos. La presente investigación analiza el peligro de extinción de un idioma originario, el quechua central, a raíz de la falta de transmisión de migrantes en la ciudad de Lima Metropolitana a sus hijos de seis a diez años. El problema se evidencia cuando el padre migrante hablante de quechua decide no usar su lengua materna en el proceso de crianza de los niños por vergüenza, discriminación, racismo, entre otras causas, originando que éstos pierdan tradiciones orales y que se cree cierta dificultad de comunicación intergeneracional con parte de la familia, así como una pérdida del sentido de pertenencia con sus raíces. Ante este panorama, nace Kushikuy, tarjetas educativas para la enseñanza-aprendizaje de palabras básicas en quechua central, una herramienta educativa y divertida que contribuye al aprendizaje del idioma a través de la adquisición gradual de palabras. El diseño de este material permite identificar elementos de la realidad social y cultural andina que son propios del contexto sociocultural de los Andes Centrales, evitando la pérdida del uso de la lengua materna en familias nativas quechuahablantes y, además, constituyendo un instrumento de aprendizaje para las personas que desean que sus hijos se acerquen a un segundo idioma.

Radiation is used nowadays for inspection, therapy, food safety, and diagnostic purposes. Our daily lives include the use of devices like airport scanners, projectional radiographers, CT scanners, treatment heads, cargo inspection systems, etc. However, these systems are extremely complicated and cost a significant amount of money to study, maintain and conduct research with. Monte Carlo is the ideal method for simulating such systems successfully and achieving findings that are remarkably comparable to experimental methods. Simulation software, however, is not always free, open source, and accessible to everyone. Open source software has gained popularity in the technological age that best represents the period we are living in, and practically all significant software sectors now use open source software tools. With the aid of an open-source, thoroughly validated software, called EGSnrcmp we were able to describe an abstract model-geometry of a cone-beam computed tomography X-rays source, produce patient-specific phantoms and score dosage values based on characteristics of the cone beam source. We outline the necessary methods and provide useful details about how to conduct such studies inside the software's ecosystem. Our study focuses on the relationship between the cone-beam source's field of view (FOV) and its impact on patient dosage, by emulating a CBCT examination. To characterize our cbct source, we employed stainless steel material to build the collimator and tungsten (W) material to build the anode. The most frequent energy at which these tests are conducted is 100 keV, which is the energy of the electrons we utilize. We were able to score absorbed dosage within a phantom produced from dicom images of a real patient, demonstrate the relationship between the FOV of the beam and the absorbed dosage and verify the cbct source using theoretical values.

Published: March 2023

The sanitary condition of pine plantations in the conditions of Polissia of Ukraine was assessed. Derevostan grows in different types of forest vegetation conditions B2GDS, B3GDS, C2GDS, C3GDS. According to the data of 27 circular trial plots, which were established during 2018–2020 in the territory of the State Enterprise Zhytomyr LH Berezivske Forestry, the State Enterprise Korostyshivsk LH Ivnitske Forestry, the State Enterprise Korostensky LH APC Melenivske Forestry, which covered the typical growing conditions of pine plantations of Zhytomyr Oblast. The index of sanitary condition showed that the pine forest belonged to strongly weakened stands. Analyzing the sanitary condition during the research period, it is worth noting that in 2018, the tree stand of the plantations in the Ivnytsia Forestry was weakened, and the average index was 2.42. In Berezivsk and Melenivsk forests, the sanitary condition index was 2.58 and 2.67, which indicates that the degree of damage is average, and the plantations are strongly weakened.
Based on the results of the research, it was established that in 2019 the sanitary condition in the Bereziv forestry improved and amounted to 2.12. By state category, the largest number of I category is 2019 – 40.0 %, 2019 II – 27.6 %. In the Ivnytsia forestry, the sanitary condition index was 2.52, the plantations were greatly weakened. In the Meleniv Forestry, the average sanitary condition index of 2.44 indicates that the tree stand is weakened.
It is proven that in 2020 the sanitary condition improved compared to other years of research and amounted to 2.11. In Ivnytsia Forestry, the sa-nitary condition remains very weak. In the Meleniv Forestry, the average sanitary condition index was 2.29, which indicates that the tree stand is weakened.
It has been established that pests, diseases and forest fires are the biggest deterioration of the sanitary condition in the territory of Zhytomyr Oblast. To prevent the development of these negative factors, it is necessary to create mixed pine plantations, to carry out timely felling of forest care.
Key words: condition categories, sanitary condition index, type of fo-rest vegetation conditions, completeness, Scots pine.

Published: April 2023

Morphological studies of marine turtles are important to provide insight into changes in their developmental environment. This study aimed to determine green turtles' Chelonia mydas morphological differences within the same genetic lineage in the eastern Mediterranean MED3 management unit and to find the best conversion equations between carapace size. A total of 106 adult green turtles (curved carapace length [CCL] range 79–105 cm) were measured on the five major nesting beaches of the eastern Mediterranean during 2020 and 2021. Morphological differences were tested with PERMANOVA and the relationship among body sizes was tested by linear regression. In the eastern Mediterranean green turtles, the mean CCL and SCL (straight carapace length) were 88.5 cm and 83.5 cm, respectively. There were no statistically significant differences in any of the examined morphological characteristics of green turtles collected from five nesting beaches. In the clustering analysis, however, it was found that all the turtles fell into two distinct groups: larger (> 95.2 cm) and smaller (< 85.2 cm) turtles. As well, the conversion equations between CCL and SCL showed a high coefficient of determination (R2 = 0.938). We suggest that the conversion equations may be applied to all green turtles belonging to this population and nesting in the eastern Mediterranean. Keywords: Chelonia mydas, morphology, conversion equation, K-means, eastern Mediterranean

Published: March 2023

Purpose. This paper aims to estimate phosphate ore grade in the Abu Tartur area, Western Desert, Egypt, using four Machine Learning Algorithms (MLA), Geostatistical Techniques (variogram and kriging models), and GIS-analysis. Methods. Four machine-learning techniques include Optimizable Decision Tree (ODT), Optimizable Support Vector Machine (OSVM), Optimizable Gaussian Process Regression (OGPR), Artificial Neural Network (ANN) are applied in this paper. The constructed variogram and kriging models, as well as GIS-analysis, provide a clear understanding of all the elements distributed in the Abu Tartur phosphate ore and are very useful at the planning and mining stages. Findings. Phosphate content has been estimated with high accuracy based on the results of four machine-learning techniques. The most efficient technique for estimating phosphate content is optimizable (OGPR), which gives correlation coefficients (R) of 0.933 and 0.927 with Mean Absolute Errors (MAE) of 0.983 and 0.933 for the training and validation data, respectively. In addition, geostatistical and GIS methods have shown that percentage of P2O5, thickness, and Fe% are suitable for phosphate mining processes, except for small pockets that require little attention at the mining stage. Originality. This research attempts to develop a quick estimation of phosphate ore grade and to provide a clear understanding about the distribution of different constituents within the ore body using different techniques. Practical implications. Grade estimation is commonly reduced to a function approximation. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques, and in particular the chosen type of AI techniques, can provide, a valid methodology for estimating grade, and the proposed models can be applied to any other data in the range used in this research.
МИКОЛА ЛИСЕНКО І МИХАЙЛО ВЕРИКІВСЬКИЙ: ПЕРЕХРЕСНІ ІНТЕНЦІЇ ТВОРЧОСТІ

Published: March 2023

Мета статті – розкрити спільні духовно-ціннісні погляди представників різних генерацій українських композиторів шляхом порівняльного аналізу життєтворчості М. Лисенка і М. Вериківського. Застосування історичного, компаративного, жанрово-стильового методів дослідження дозволяє осмислити процес утвердження національного музичного мистецтва у вирі суспільно-політичних подій другої половини ХІХ – першої половини ХХ століття. Наукова новизна пропонованої роботи полягає у висвітленні композиторської, диригентської, виконавської, педагогічної, фольклористичної, музично-теоретичної та музично-громадської діяльності М. Лисенка та М. Вериківського, які в складних історичних реаліях імперської і радянської влади виступили незламними провідниками українського культурного руху. Висновки. Відзначено, що талант митців із різних регіонів України – Полтавщини (М.В. Лисенко) і Волині (М.І. Вериківський) – максимально розкрився у Києві. Гуртування співвітчизників довкола піднесення національної самосвідомості і збереження історичної пам’яті українського народу, визначили багатогранну діяльність ключових постатей вітчизняної музичної культури. Опрацювання українського фольклору, музична інтерпретація Шевченкового слова стали важливим чинником етноідентифікації композиторів. Для кожного з цих авторів провідними були вокально-хоровий і оперний жанри. Зближує М. Лисенка і М. Вериківського відкритість до жанрових новацій на засадах відповідності національних музичних зразків європейським стандартам. З’ясовано, що самобутній стиль українських композиторів сформувався у загальному контексті художньо-естетичних орієнтирів епохи. Романтична ґенеза творчості М. Лисенка істотно відрізняється від модерністських шукань М. Вериківського. Суголосні у ідейних принципах вони виявили самостійність і новизну художніх рішень. В цьому проявляється природна еволюція української композиторської школи першої половини ХХ століття.

The results show that using Edmodo-based learning is the best teaching and learning tool for teachers and students. Edmodo-based e-learning in the blended learning process successfully facilitates student participation in online discussions and assignments and can increase students' interest and motivation to improve their learning outcomes. The results of this paper suggest that learning activities need to be developed on the basis of sociocultural theory and a systems approach to communicative learning so that they can improve interaction and communication through the use of Edmodo-based e-learning in a blended learning process applied to the student learning process in education.

The Corruption Eradication Commission in carrying out its duties and authorities is independent and free from the influence of any power. This article aims to describe the efforts of the Corruption Eradication Commission in preventing the eradication of criminal acts of corruption after the enactment of Law Number 19 of 2019 concerning the Second Amendment to Law Number 30 of 2002 concerning the Corruption Crime Commission. This type of research is normative legal research which is oriented to processing legal principles, legal doctrines, and current law. This research also uses primary legal materials, secondary legal materials, and tertiary legal materials. The three legal materials were collaborated in an analytical and prescriptive study in this study using a statutory and conceptual approach. The findings in this study reveal that the revised KPK Law provides convenience in enforcing the law on corruption by building synergy with other law enforcement officials such as the Indonesian National Police, the Indonesian Attorney General's Office by prioritizing prevention without ignoring the principles of eradicating corruption. In addition, the Corruption Eradication Commission's supervisory board is a state institution within the executive power cluster that carries out the task of preventing and eradicating criminal acts with a supervisory function to carry out the oversight function in the process of enforcing criminal acts of corruption committed by the Corruption Eradication Commission.

Authors: Chin Hui Sian , Ismail Asmah
Published: March 2023

Malaysia is expected to be an ageing nation by 2030, in which the elderly will make up at least 15% of the total population. As a result, there is a growing demand for well-trained mental health professionals (MHPs) to address the psychosocial and mental health issues faced by the elderly. To provide quality mental health care for the elderly, it is crucial for MHPs to equip themselves with the necessary knowledge, skills, and competencies to understand their unique needs and challenges. The aim of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore the challenges and coping strategies of MHPs working with the elderly. Through in-depth interviews with five MHPs, the study identified several challenges, including stereotypes held by the elderly towards mental health services, communication barriers, and the impact of COVID-19 on the mental health of the elderly. The MHPs addressed these challenges using coping strategies such as increasing mental health awareness and support for the elderly, using appropriate communication methods, and facilitating access to mental health care. Future studies with a more significant number of MHPs from diverse demographic backgrounds and varying levels of working experience are recommended to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges involved in psychotherapy with the ageing population and identify optimal ways to overcome them.

Due to its significance and prominence in Malaysian culture, English is taught and learned as a second language. Along with transforming the Malaysian education system towards the better, innovative teaching approaches are necessary to assist learners in learning English as their second language in schools. In this study, a flash card game was designed and developed to encourage primary school learners to learn vocabulary and improve their reading skills. It is inspired by the culture and lifestyle of the people in Sarawak, and it is named Rajang River Run. The use of flashcard games as a game-based learning and storytelling approach to acquire new vocabulary, construct engaging sentences, and increase students' motivation was examined in this study. This study was conducted at a national government-funded public primary school in Putrajaya, Malaysia, involving 15 Primary one students that were used as the target participants in this research. The game design thinking approach was employed to develop the game, which acts as a guide to scaffold creativity and collaboration. The study implemented an observation checklist derived from the Revised Conceptual Model of Academic Success for data collection. Findings demonstrated that learning through the Rajang River Run could boost pupils' capacity and desire to learn new words. The implication of this study suggested that gamified learning, such as gamified narrative, increased players' motivation to play the game. The participants' memory retention and attentiveness have improved due to the supportive and engaging setting.

The hub and casing walls of axial compressors are often modeled as smooth continuous surfaces in CFD simulations, but in real geometries, non-smooth pinches, steps and leakage cavities may exist. In the GPPS first Turbomachinery CFD Workshop, a comprehensive validation and verification campaign of RANS flow solvers was conducted, and all the simulation results consistently over-predicted the total pressure ratio at the rotor exit near the casing and the stator exit near the hub. From a recent examination of the test rig geometry, a pinched casing wall over the rotor and a leakage cavity below the stator were found, which were not considered in the workshop. In this paper, the effects of these endwall geometric uncertainties and errors are analyzed via numerical simulation. When considering the rotor casing pinch of the test geometry, the predicted total pressure ratio and choke mass flow of the compressor stage are smaller than that without the pinch, leading to better agreement with the measured data. When considering a stator hub cavity with a leakage flow rate of about 0.2% of the compressor inlet mass flow, the near-hub total pressure ratio distribution matches slightly better with the experimental data, but the effects on the global compressor stage characteristics are not visible. The relevant mechanisms of these changes in performances are analyzed in detail. The updated geometries and grids will be released to the public as a benchmark test case for turbomachinery CFD validation and verification.
Neorealist Analysis of Security Dilemma in Cyberspace; A Quantitative Study
Authors: Arslan Ahmet Selçuk
Published: March 2023

Two crucial factors urged IR academia to account for state behaviour in cyberspace; one is the increasing volume of cyber attacks, and the other is the raising scale of damage induced by these attacks. This has brought a series of initiatives to appeal to the grand theories of IR so as to scrutinize state behaviour in depth in terms of securitization and militarization of the cyberspace. Subscribing to the same pattern of endeavor, this work intends to contribute to IR academia by putting forth a neorealist analysis of state behaviour in cyberspace by relying on quantitative methods. The analysis conducted by using a dataset consisting of 8,991 samples indicates that as states build more cyber security capacity, they become more tended to execute disruptive actions against other states in the cyberspace. Even after reinforcing the model with three additional control variables, the model yielded highly statistically important results.

Limbah yang digunakan pada penelitian ini diambil dari industri pengolahan rumput laut yang mengolah rumput laut menjadi produk ATCC (Alcali Treated Cottonii Chips), dimana dalam proses produksinya menghasilkan limbah cair yang yang berasal dari proses pemasakan dan pencucian. Upaya yang dilakukan dalam pengolahan air limbah di industri tersebut dengan mengolahnya dalam suatu Instalasi Pengolahan Air Limbah (IPAL) menggunakan sistem pengolahan secara biologi (lumpur aktif) yang diikuti dengan proses adsorpsi. Namun, sistem pengolahan tersebut masih belum efektif dalam menurunkan konsentrasi bahan pencemar. Tujuan penelitian adalah untuk menganalisis pengaruh beban organik pada proses AF2B dan laju alir pada kolom adsorpsi terhadap penurunan konsentrasi BOD, COD, kekeruhan, dan pH. Penelitian dilakukan dengan cara mengalirkan air limbah dari industri pengolahan rumput laut ke dalam reaktor AF2B yang berisi bakteri sehingga terjadi proses degradasi bahan-bahan pencemar dalam air limbah, kemudian dilanjutkan dengan mengalirkan effluent dari AF2B ke dalam kolom adsorpsi yang berisi karbon aktif berbentuk granular. Dengan mengukur BOD, COD, TSS dan pH sebelum dan sesudah proses dari reaktor AF2B maupun kolom adsorpsi maka dapat diketahui besarnya penurunan konsentrasi BOD, COD, kekeruhan dan pH. Percobaan dilakukan dengan menggunakan variable bebas beban organik sebesar 7300 mg/jam, dan 8000 mg/jam, serta laju alir sebesar 3,3 liter/menit dan 3 liter/menit. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pada beban organik 8000 mg/jam dan laju alir umpan pada kolom adsorpsi sebesar 3 L/menit dapat menurunkan konsentrasi bahan pencemara secara keseluruhan masing - masing sebesar: BOD (87,04%), COD (88.97%), kekeruhan (96,55%).
