Abstract

Batik industri liquid waste contained the quite high concentrations of biodegradable and easily-rotten suspended solid and non-biodegradable dye. When no processing was conducted before it was disposed into receiving water body, such a condition would produce reduced quality of life. This research aimed to reduce the content of suspended solid and dye in liquid waste by using adsorption process through the use of active carbon media. Active carbon media-based adsorption has been one of the methods to solve pollution problem on receiving water body. Experimental method through the use of active carbon was adopted. The results of the experiment was developed into a design of waste processing instrument. The instrument was operated by setting absorbent, while the adsorbent was a pipe of 4 inch in diameter, and the surface area was 0.03243 m2. Water level was set to be 0.6 m higher than the media. Analysis variant is yused in dis research. Result indicated that active carbon was able to reduce SS and the dye. The efficiency of SS and the dye were 55.23% and 55.30%, respectively. The variant analysis showed F value at 5% significance level with 5.14 free grade of the effluent quality, and the adsorption of active carbon was better at the 70 cm thickness with maximum water height.
