【 摘 要 】

Water pollution by lead affects blood cockles, a potential source of food. The aim of this research is to compare rice husk (RH) and rice husk carbon (RHC) in reducing the concentration of lead in blood cockles. RH and RHC were activated with NaOH 1 M, and then the optimal conditions and maximum capacity were determined. This research showed that RH and RHC had maximum adsorbancy capacities of 28.7326 mg/g and 51.5464 mg/g at optimal condition. The optimal adsorption condition for RH in 100 ml Pb solution is 0.32 gram, pH 5, for 4 hours. The optimal adsorption condition for RHC in 100 ml Pb solution is 0.20 gram, pH 5, for 2 hours. Lead content in blood cockles from the north waters of Jakarta (1.9658 mg/kg) is beyond the threshold limit. Lead adsorption by RH and RHC could reduce lead content in blood cockles by about 40% and 31%, respectively.
