Optimalisasi Rute Dan Biaya Distribusi Menggunakan Metode Saving Matrix Dan Metode Traveling Salesman Problem (Tsp) Pada Depot Air Minum Splazz

Splazz drinking water depot is a refill drinking water depot and drinking water supplier in the Yogyakarta area which has a distribution/delivery route for drinking water to consumers in several different locations. The distribution carried out does not take into account optimal routes so that the costs incurred in distribution are not optimal. By Therefore, research was carried out at the Splazz drinking water depot to optimize routes and costs for distributing drinking water to consumers using the saving matrix method and the branch and bound method. The initial route for the distribution/delivery of drinking water carried out at depots based on days from the data collected shows a total distance of 66.6 Km to 35 delivery points. Processing the data using two different methods resulted in a route saving of 16 - 18% of the delivery distance with a total distance savings of 54.9 Km for the saving matrix method and 55.8 Km for the branch and bound method, the distribution vehicle used uses a modified motorbike with a carrying capacity of 5 gallons. Then calculate the amount of cost savings after saving the distance on the distribution/delivery routes, resulting in fuel cost savings of 16 – 17%.

Refill Drinking Water Depot Risk Assessment for Chemical Hazard Contaminant in 25 Cities of East Java Province, Indonesia

Introduction: Water was a part of the environment that was very susceptible to contamination by various hazardous substances, both physical, chemical, and microbiological. Serious health problems might occur when humans consume contaminated drinking water and can cause infectious and non-infectious diseases. This study aimed to analyze the risk quotient of chemical hazard exposure in drinking water by depot refilling drinking water from 25 cities and regencies in East Java Province. Methods: This study was analytically observational with a cross-sectional research design. The sampling method used was porposive sampling, which took 25 from 38 cities and regencies in East Java province. There were three steps to analyze drinking water health risks: dose-response analysis, exposure path, and risk characteristics analyzed. Results and Discussion: The highest concentrations of each parameter parameter F (1.4132 mg/L), NO_3 (56.2780 mg/L), NO_2 (22,225 mg/L), Fe (0.3845 mg/L), Mg (4.54 mg/L), and Zn (0.4272 mg/L). Analysis of risk quotient > 1 for parameters NO_3 (1.2265), NO_2 (7,748), and Mg (1.1308) Indicates that drinking water in the area is not safe for consumption by people weighing 55kg as much as 2L/day for 350 days. Conclusion: Based on the results of studies conducted on those substances (F, NO_3, NO_2, Fe, Mg, and Zn) there are three substances in the water that have RQ value > 1, NO_3 (1.2265), NO_2 (7,748), and Mg (1.1308) this means that those substances are risking human health and needed to be addressed controlled.

Analisis Pengaruh Kualitas Layanan Terhadap Kepuasan Konsumen Pada Depot Aidrat Sunan Drajat Paciran Lamongan

This research was conducted to see and determine the effect of service quality on customer satisfaction at refill drinking water depots in Aidrat (Air Asli Sunan Drajat) Lamongan, there are several factors that consumers can consider in assessing a service provided by the company, according to Zeithaml, Berry and Parasuraman (1985) quoted in Tjiptono (2000: 27-28) succeeded in identifying five dimensions of service quality, namely tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. Based on the results of the analysis that has been carried out on the effect of service quality (tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy) on consumer satisfaction at refill drinking water depots in Tirta Mulya, it can be concluded that based on the Multiple Regression Equation Analysis the result is Y = 2.047 + 0.441(X1)+ 0.113 (X2)+ 0.191 (X3) + 0.229 (X4) + 0.235 (X5). If the tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy variables are equal to zero, then the value of customer satisfaction is 2.047. If the quality of service changes by 1 then the tangibles variable will increase by 0.441%. Likewise for the reliability variable, which is equal to 0.113%. In contrast, the responsiveness, assurance, and empathy variables show positive parameters, namely 0.191%, 0.229%, and 0.235% respectively. This means that each addition of 1 variable will be followed by an increase in service quality. Based on the Coefficient of Determination Test (R2) the value of adjusted R is 0.961, this shows that 96.1% of customer satisfaction can be explained by the variables tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy. The remaining 3.9% is due to the influence of other variables not included in the model. Then based on the Simultaneous Test (F Test) Anova test it can be seen that the Fcount value is 461.654 > the Ftable value is 3.942, located in the rejection area so that Ho is rejected or Ha is accepted. It means that the tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy variables have a significant effect on the consumer satisfaction variable. And based on the Partial Test (t test) the results of testing the regression coefficient with tcount obtained the value of tcount tangibles of 4.473 (X1) > 1.661, reliability (X2) 2.053 > 1.661, responsiveness (X3) 3.083 > 1.661, assurance (X4) 4.718 > l1 .661, and empathy (X5) 5.325 > 1.661. Thus the variables tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance, and empathy have a significant effect on consumer satisfaction variables.

Risk Factors of Musculoskeletal Disorders among Workers of Water Refilling Depot

Complaints of musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) are common in workers with a reasonably heavy workload, such as workers at refill drinking water depots. MSDs can be caused by repetitive activities such as daily bending, lifting and lowering liters of drinking water refills. This study aimed to identify the risk factors of MSDs among workers at refilled drinking water filling depots and analyze the dominant factors that influence MSDs. This study was quantitative research with an analytical survey using a cross-sectional design conducted in Simpang Selayang Village, Medan City, Indonesia. A total of 40 refilled drinking water depot workers were involved in this study with a comprehensive sampling approach. Data was collected directly by distributing questionnaires to workers at refill drinking water filling depots. Data were tested statistically using the Chi-Square test and logistic regression. The analysis showed that work posture, workload, tenure and length of work are associated with MSDs complaints. The results of the logistic regression test showed that the dominant variable influencing MSDs complaints is work posture. Refillable drinking water depot workers with non-ergonomic working postures were likely to experience MSDs complaints 11 times as often as those with ergonomic work postures. The findings highlight the need for local health agencies to educate or empower workers at water refilling stations regarding MSDs complaints. Musculoskeletal disorders associated with work involving heavy loads could be prevented if workers know ergonomic work postures well. In addition, adequate rest is recommended to avoid musculoskeletal injuries.
