Abstract

The disposal of wastewater containing high levels of organic parameters can trigger bacterial growth, which can lead to a decrease in dissolved oxygen in the water. This research uses MBBR technology to degrade organic parameters. The aim of this research is to compare the optimum media types for the degradation of organic pollutants and to analyse the MLSS and SVI values to determine the quality of the sludge produced. The variation used in this study is the type of media used is sponge media and K5 hardness with the treatment of both types of media using residence time for 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours and 10 hours. In the study, the seeding and acclimation process was carried out first until it met the specified design criteria. The results indicated that the best media for COD and total nitrogen removal were the sponge media with a removal percentage of 56% and 48% at a retention time of 10 hours. In the analysis of MLSS and SVI, the highest MLSS value was obtained in Kaldness K5 and there was an increase in SVI at each retention time for both. From this study it can be concluded that Kaldness K5 is more dominant in a suspended growth system than a sponge, but the greatest removal of organic pollutants is in sponge media which is more dominant in attached growth.

Abstract

The Marengan River serves as a critical freshwater resource for local residents; however, escalating human-induced activities have contributed to its declining water quality. This research aims to evaluate the river's water quality status through an analysis of water quality indicators and a pollution index assessment. The methodology included field observations, water sampling at five selected points along the river, and laboratory examinations measuring BOD, COD, TSS, DO, nitrate, phosphate, and total coliform levels. Findings revealed that BOD and COD concentrations at all locations surpassed the environmental quality standards, with the third sampling point exhibiting the most elevated levels. The calculated Pollution Index values ranged between 5.24 and 7.85, categorizing the river as moderately to heavily polluted. Key pollution contributors are presumed to include household wastewater, agricultural discharge, and organic matter. The study concludes that urgent action is needed to address the environmental degradation of the Marengan River, through wastewater treatment implementation, watershed area restoration, and active community participation. These interventions are recommended to foster sustainable river basin management and improve overall water quality.
