Abstract

This research explores the potential of locally sourced natural zeolite from the Tanggamus District, Indonesia, for the removal of ammonium from shrimp pond wastewater. The study utilizes a comprehensive approach involving desilication modification, batch adsorption experiments, and field-scale application. The zeolite, predominantly composed of clinoptilolite, undergoes calcination at varying temperatures, with 200°C proving to be optimal for enhancing ammonium adsorption capacity. The study also highlights the efficient use of zeolite at a lower dosage of 5 g/L, yielding high removal efficiency. The real-world effectiveness of this method was confirmed by field experiments, where the application of calcined zeolite resulted in lower ammonium concentrations in shrimp ponds. The results demonstrate that the application method, specifically direct spreading in the ponds, affects adsorption performance. These findings underscore the potential of using Tanggamus Natural Zeolite as a cost-effective and eco-friendly solution for ammonium control in shrimp pond wastewater. This work paves the way for future research focusing on the long-term application effects and zeolite regeneration methods to further improve the economic and environmental efficiency of this approach.

Abstract

The environmental concern related to excessive ammonium in water bodies necessitates efficient and cost-effective removal techniques. This study investigated the modification of natural zeolite collected from the Tanggamus district of Lampung Province, Indonesia, with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) to enhance its performance for ammonium adsorption from aqueous solution. The modified and natural zeolites were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), N2 adsorption-desorption isotherm, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Results indicated that the modification did not cause significant structural changes but increased the mesoporosity of the zeolites, which was beneficial for ammonium adsorption. The adsorption studies revealed that the EDTA modified zeolites consistently outperformed the natural zeolite and that the adsorption process was exothermic in nature. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models fit the adsorption data well, indicating that the adsorption process occurs on both homogenous and heterogeneous surfaces. Thermodynamic studies confirmed that the adsorption process was exothermic and that the EDTA modification increased the spontaneity of the ammonium adsorption process. Overall, this study highlights the potential of EDTA-modified zeolites as an effective material for ammonium removal from aqueous solutions.

Abstract

Crayfish, particularly Cherax Quadricarinatus, hold significant potential for aquaculture due to their high market value and substantial demand both domestically and internationally. The growth of freshwater crayfish is heavily influenced by the pond environment. Several environmental factors affect this growth, including water turbidity, pH, dissolved oxygen, temperature, and ammonia levels. This study focuses on monitoring water turbidity and pH using DFRobot Tubidity SEN0189 and PH-4502C sensors, and displaying the results on a monitoring website. Additionally, a pump filter and aerator are employed as actuators for control. The control method used is Sugeno Fuzzy Logic, which makes control system decisions when sensors detect pH and turbidity values outside the optimal range for crayfish ponds: 6-8 for pH and 5-25 NTU for turbidity. The Sugeno Fuzzy Logic method used has inputs based on sensor readings, each with three membership degrees; for pH, Acid (0-6.5), Neutral (6-8), and Base (7.5-14); and for turbidity, Clear (0-5 NTU), Turbid (4-15 NTU), and Very Turbid (14-25 NTU). The outputs control the pump filter and aerator, with two membership degrees: Off, On, and On-Extended. The sensors have successfully measured pond turbidity with an error of 4.76% and pH with an error of 0.9%. The control system has been successfully implemented, with the pump filter and aerator activating in response to measured conditions in the crayfish pond.
