Abstract

Peat water is surface water that is generally found in peatland areas and is mostly found in lowlands. Peat water has a low pH (3-5), is brownish-red in color, and contains many organic and inorganic substances. The more intense color of peat water indicates a higher content of chemical compounds. High levels of Fe metal in peat water can disrupt the peat swamp ecosystem itself, such as disrupting the activity of decomposer microorganisms, disrupting plant growth, and causing toxicity to humans and other living things if they consume it. This makes it not meet the requirements of household water and sanitation that is suitable for consumption. This study aims to determine the effect of the use of CuO/Zeolite catalysts on the degradation of peat water by ozonolysis method on Fe levels. After the degradation process at optimum conditions, the Fe level became 0.19 mg/L and was already at the safe limit of the quality standard used. Based on these data, the decrease in Fe metal concentration as well as BOD, COD, Nitrate, Nitrite, and TSS values in peat water by ozonolysis is more effective with the addition of CuO/Zeolite catalysts at optimum conditions.
