Pembangkit Listrik Tenaga Uap (PLTU) Labuan dengan kapasitas total 600 MW berpotensi menyebarkan limbah air panas hasil proses pendinginan ke perairan pantai Labuan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji pola sebaran limbah air panas serta menganalisis luas dan jarak sebaran limbah tersebut di PLTU Labuan. Sebaran limbah air panas disimulasikan melalui model dispersi termal 2-dimensi menggunakan perangkat lunak MOHID Studio 2016. Validasi model dengan data observasi diperoleh koefisien korelasi sekitar 0,922 (elevasi pasang surut), 0,071 (arus zonal), 0,114 (arus meridional), dan 0,877 (suhu air laut). Pola sebaran arus permukaan di perairan Labuan dominan bergerak menuju daratan saat kondisi pasang dan menjauhi daratan saat kondisi surut dengan kecepatan arus maksimal sekitar 0-1 ms-1. Di bagian barat domain model arus cenderung bergerak ke arah selatan-barat daya, namun di wilayah dekat dengan daratan arus cenderung bergerak ke utara-timur laut menyusuri pantai. Sebaran limbah air panas PLTU terjadi maksimum pada kondisi surut. Air buangan pada skenario normal memiliki interval suhu 30 ºC – 37,8 ºC. Pada kondisi surut, luasan limbah air panas dengan suhu >32 ºC pada skenario normal adalah 1,0475 km² dan menyebar sampai jarak 1.200 m dari titik outlet. Air buangan pada skenario maksimum memiliki interval suhu 30 ºC – 40 ºC. Pada kondisi surut, luasan limbah air panas dengan suhu >32 ºC pada skenario maksimum sekitar 1,365 km² dan menyebar sampai jarak 1.350 m dari titik outlet. Labuan Power Plant with a total capacity of 600 MW has the potential to spread thermal waste water from the cooling process to the Labuan coastal waters. This research aimed to study the distribution pattern of thermal waste water and to analyze the area and distance of the distribution of the waste at Labuan Power Plant. Thermal distribution was simulated through a 2-dimensional thermal dispersion model using MOHID Studio 2016 software. Validation of the model with observation data obtained correlation coefficients of around 0,922 (tidal elevation), 0,071 (zonal current), 0,114 (meridional current), and 0,877 (sea surface temperature). The pattern of surface currents in Labuan waters is dominantly moving towards the mainland during high tide conditions and away from the mainland during low tide conditions with maximum current velocity of around 0-1 ms-1. In the western part of the research domain, currents tend to move to south-southwest, but in areas close to the mainland, currents tend to move to north-northeast along the coast. The distribution of Power Plant thermal waste water is maximum at low tide. Wastewater in the normal scenario has a temperature interval of 30 °C - 37.8 °C. At low tide, the thermal waste water area with a temperature >32 °C in the normal scenario is around 1,0475 km² and spreads to a distance of 1.200 m from the outlet point. Wastewater in the maximum scenario has a temperature interval of 30 °C – 40 °C. At low tide, the thermal waste water area with a temperature >32 °C in the maximum scenario is around 1,365 km² and spreads to a distance of 1.350 m from the outlet point.
