Abstract

Escalating waste production due to population growth and diverse community activities poses environmental and public health threats. To mitigate these effects, this study investigates using water bamboo (Equisetum hyemale) in phytoremediation. A comprehensive literature review was conducted, analyzing articles from 2011-2024 from Indonesian language journals. Ten articles were selected, focusing on the phytoremediation of four types of waste: tofu industry waste, leachate, domestic waste, and lead. Findings reveal water bamboo’s potential as a phytoremediation agent, effectively reducing waste levels in various contexts. For instance, it reduced BOD, COD, and TTS in tofu industry waste; Pb, Zn, Cr, DO, and pH in leachate waste; BOD, COD, and detergent levels in domestic waste; and lead in lead (Pb) industrial waste. The study underscores the potential of water bamboo in real-world liquid waste management applications, contributing to sustainable waste management strategies and addressing environmental and public health challenges.

Abstract

In line with the problems faced by all landfills in Indonesia, the high level of waste entering landfills is not commensurate with the cost and quality of waste management which is still low. The volume of landfill leachate with levels of organic, inorganic and metal content at the Jatibarang landfill has the potential to pollute the Kreo river. The dangerous impact on health and ecosystem continuity if the total ammonia and nitrogen content is too high in Jatibarang landfill leachate, efforts to manage it with a phytoremediation agent are Equisetum hymale. This research method is an experiment with a completely randomized design (CRD) designed with the type of Equisetum hymale and 3 treatment of Equisetum hymale biomass, namely, P0: 0 g, P1: 750 g, and P2: 1000 g of Equisetum hymale per 10 liters of leachate, each treatment was repeated 3 times. This phytoremediation is very effective in reducing ammonia levels, the reduction in ammonia levels reached 99.7% and the highest total nitrogen content reached 91.7%. It was concluded that the Equisetum hymale was effective in reducing ammonia levels. The effectiveness of reducing ammonia levels and nitrogen levels was most optimal on the third day of P2. The Equisetum hymale removed ammonia and total nitrogen up to 70% in variation of contact time.
