PENYISIHAN KADAR COD DAN NITRAT MELALUI KULTIVASI Chlorella sp. DENGAN VARIASI KONSENTRASI LIMBAH CAIR TAHU

ABSTRAK Limbah cair tahu merupakan salah satu jenis pencemar yang dapat mencemari lingkungan. Kandungan bahan organiknya yang tinggi dapat menyebabkan penurunan kualitas lingkungan apabila langsung dibuang ke badan air. Produsen tahu masih didominasi oleh industri skala kecil, sehingga diperlukan pengolahan yang murah, mudah dan praktis penerapannya untuk mengatasi masalah tersebut. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji potensi Chlorella sp. dalam meyisihkan kadar COD dan nitrat yang terkandung didalam limbah cair tahu dengan konsentrasi 0, 10, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 75 dan 100%. Parameter yang diamati adalah kelimpahan sel, laju pertumbuhan sel, nilai COD dan nitrat. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pertumbuhan sel tertinggi teramati pada perlakuan konsentrasi 30% dengan nilai rata-rata 9.850.000 sel/mL. Sedangkan penyisihan kadar COD dan nitrat juga terlihat pada konsentrasi 30% sebesar 71,54% dan 30,03%. Kata Kunci: Chlorella sp., Limbah Cair Tahu, COD, Nitrat ABSTRACT THE ELIMINATION OF COD AND NITRATE LEVEL BY CULTIVATING Chlorella sp. WITH VARIATION OF TOFU LIQUID WASTE CONCENTRATION Tofu liquid waste is one type of contaminants that can pollute the environment. Organic matter content that very high in tofu liquid waste can lead to environmental degradation if directly discharged into water bodies. The manufacturers of tofu is still dominated by small-scale industry, so it requires treatment is cheap, easy and practical application to resolve the issue. This study aims to assess the potensial of Chlorella sp. in reducing the levels of COD and nitrates contained in tofu liquid waste with concentrations of 0, 10, 20, 25, 30, 40, 50, 75, dan 100%. The parameters measured were the abundance of cells, cell growth rate, COD and nitrate. The results showed that the highest cell growth was observed in the treatment concentration of 30% with an average value of 9.850.000 cells/mL. While the allowance for COD and nitrate levels were also seen at a concentration of 30% amounting to 71.54% and 30.03%. Keywords: Chlorella sp., Tofu Liquid Waste, COD, Nitrat

A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE REPRESENTATION OF DISNEY’S WHITE AND NON-WHITE WOMEN IN BRAVE 2012 AND MOANA 2016

Di awal munculnya film animasi Disney, pemain utama perempuan didominasi oleh wanita berkulit putih. Film-film Disney yang memiliki pemeran utama wanita selain kulit putih baru muncul di akhir abad ke-20. Tetapi, pertanyaan apakah wanita berkulit putih dan tidak berkulit putih memiliki kualitas yang sama dalam film Disney masih menjadi perbincangan. Oleh karena itu, studi ini menginvestigasi reprsentasi perempuan kulit putih dan non kulit putih dalam film Brave (2012) dan Moana (2016) yang diproduksi Walt Disney Studios di abad ke-21. Dengan mengadopsi metode kualitatif, studi ini menganalisis karakterasi dari pemeran utama perempuan dengan menggunakan teori karakterisasi oleh Boggs dan Petries (2008). Studi ini juga menggunakan teori mise-en-scene yang diprakasai oleh Corrigan (2010) untuk menguatkan analisis. Temuan dari studi ini menunjukan bahwa perempuan kulit putih dan non kulit putih di representasikan berbeda dalam film Disney. Perempuan kulit putih cenderung direpresentasikan sebagai pemeran utama wanita yang pemberontak dalam ranah domestik. Sebaliknya, perempuan non kulit putih direpresentasikan sebagai perempuan yang berbakti dalam ranah publik. Terlepas dari perbedaan, kedua perempuan ini mereprepresentasikan tipe putri Disney baru yang lebih egaliter, berani, dan tidak bergantung kepada pria. ---------- In the earlier films produced by Disney, the female main characters are dominated by white-skinned women. Disney’s films that have non-white female main characters just emerged at the end of the 20th century. However, the question whether white women and non-white women maintain the same qualities are still going on. Thus, this study investigates the representation of Disney’s white and non-white women in Brave (2012) and Moana (2016) produced by Walt Disney Studios in the 21st century. Adopting a qualitative method, this present study analyzes the female main characters’ characterizations which are drawn upon Boggs and Petrie’s (2008) framework of characterization in films. The study also employs Corrigan’s (2010) framework of mise-en-scene to strengthen the analysis. The findings reveal that Disney’s white and non-white women are represented differently. Disney’s white women tend to be represented as a rebellious female main character in the domestic sphere. On the other hand, Disney’s non-white women represent a devoted female main character in the realm of the public sphere. Despite the differences, both female main characters represent a new archetype of Disney’s princess who is more egalitarian, brave and not dependent on men
