Abstract

Treated water turbidity stability is an important indicator of operational reliability in surface-water-based drinking water treatment plants. This study evaluated preventive operational control at SPAM Katulampa, Bogor City, using daily operational data from 10 February to 10 March 2026 and field observations. The evaluated parameters included raw and treated water turbidity, raw water flow rate, turbidity removal efficiency, and preventive control practices in each treatment unit. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the coefficient of variation, followed by development of a preventive operational control matrix. Raw water turbidity fluctuated markedly, with an average of 58.83 NTU, a range of 12.00–262.98 NTU, and a coefficient of variation of 88.49%. In contrast, treated water turbidity remained stable, averaging 0.61 NTU with a range of 0.52–0.91 NTU and a coefficient of variation of 16.83%, consistently meeting the 3 NTU drinking water standard. Stability was supported by integrated controls at the intake, coagulation, flocculation, sedimentation, filtration, reservoir, and overall operation stages. Key measures included screening, coagulation control, sludge draining, filter backwashing, media maintenance, and final water quality verification. The findings confirm that stable treated water quality results from coordinated preventive control across the treatment train.

Abstract

Aeration is the most energy-intensive unit in wastewater treatment systems, particularly in shallow decentralized reactors with limited hydrostatic pressure, which, which reduces oxygen transfer efficiency. However, systematic evaluations of integrated porous–Venturi microbubble systems under shallow-water conditions are limited. This study aims to address this gap by investigating and optimizing a fine-bubble porous–Venturi microbubble generator (MBG) using laboratory-scale experiments. Clean water experiments were conducted in a 200 L batch reactor with two liquid flow rates (71.6 and 103.8 L/min) and four gas flow rates (0.15–0.60 L/min). Aeration performance was assessed using the volumetric oxygen mass transfer coefficient (KLa(20)), standard oxygen transfer rate (SOTR), and specific aeration efficiency (SAE), supported by one-way ANOVA. The results showed that the gas flow rate influenced  KLa(20) and SOT,R whereas the liquid flow rate had a dominant effect on SAE. The optimal operating conditions were identified as QL = 71.6 L/min and QG = 0.45 L/min, achieving KLa(20) of 2.23 h⁻¹ and SAE exceeding 40 kg O₂/kWh. The findings showed that optimum gas–liquid interaction leads to energy-efficient aeration performance rather than maximum flow rate supply. It also provides practical design insights for optimizing aeration systems in shallow and decentralized wastewater treatment applications
