摘要：Heavy metals are hazardous pollutants due to the toxic properties and may affect many aspects ofboth biology and ecology. The use of heavy metals in industry will cause the waste that will contaminate theaquatic environment. Oil spills from the activities of industrial companies lead to water pollution. Some of theheavy metals contaminating the waters are lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd). This research aimed to determine theheavy metal content of lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) in the waters of Karangsong. Water testing and samplingwere conducted at three different stations. Station 1 is located at estuary in Langgen, Singaraja sub-district;Station 2 is located on the beach near the mangrove forest; and Station 3 is located on the Beach near thepier.Heavy metals test was conducted at Chemical-Analytic Laboratory, Basic Science Research Centre,Padjadjaran University. The results showed that the lead (Pb) content in Karangsong waters has exceeded thestandard quality threshold with the highest value of 0.517 mg/L, the content of cadmium (Cd) in Karangsongwaters also has exceeded the standard quality threshold with the highest value of 0.073 mg/L. Physicochemicaltest results also showed the presence of heavy metal content in these waters.
