Sebamban River is one of the rivers located in Tanah Bumbu Regency, South Kalimantan Province which is commonly used by the people in their daily activities. However, this river has a copper (Cu) contamination that exceeds the established threshold. This study aims to utilize the adsorption of coconut shell activated carbon to reduce copper (Cu) levels in the Sebamban River. This study was conducted using a quantitative method in a true-experimental manner, treatment of test samples with a post-test only control group design, analyzed using a one-way Anova test with an Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometry (AAS) instrument. The results showed that the copper (Cu) levels in the Sebamban River water were 25.06 mg/L. After being soaked using coconut shell activated carbon with a time variation of 30 minutes, the content was 14.45 mg/L or a decrease of 41.97%, 60 minutes the content was 7.15 mg/L or a decrease of 71.46% and 60 minutes the content was 1.52 mg/L or a decrease of 93.93%. Based on the results of the study, there is an effect of time on the administration of coconut shell activated carbon.
