Determination of total petroleum hydrocarbons concentration in coastal seawater of teluk batik beach, perak, malaysia

The study aims to determine Total Petroleum Hydrocarbon (TPH) status in seawater from Teluk Batik beach seawater. In July 2018, fishing vessel sunk two nautical miles off Pematang Damar Laut, a coastal village within the town of George Town, Penang Malaysia, which also impacted the coastline of Pera...
