This project is about to determine the concentration of methane at 14 sampling site<br />

in lower Terengganu River. We used headspace technique coupled with GC-FID to<br />

determine methane gas in water. Our result showed that the concentration of methane<br />

ranged between 2.32 ppm and 259 ppm. The highest two spots are L5 and L6 with<br />

concentration 258 and 259 ppm respectively. While the lowest spot is L14 with<br />

concentration 2.32 ppm. We also compared the methane concentration in each spot<br />

with land use.<br />
