Purpose: The purpose of this study was to know, calculate and evaluate the concentration of methane gas and carbon dioxide produced in each wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) pond.Method: This research was a qualitative research, using case study design and explanatory approach. The object of this research was the emission of methane gas and carbon dioxide emitted from 12 WWTP ponds.Results: The highest COD and BOD decrement occurred in pond 4 of 39% COD and 61.2% BOD. The highest total methane gas emission was 1.49 x 109 kg hours-1 (1.49 x 106 tons hour-1) occurring in the morning, while the highest total carbon dioxide emission was 2.59 x 109 kg per hour (2.59 x 106 ton hour-1). Conclusion: The concentrations of methane and carbon dioxide gas produced by each WWTP pool varied greatly depending on temperature, residence time and the amount of mud. Methane gas emissions and carbon dioxide emissions occurred in each WWTP pool with the highest methane gas emission value occurring in pond 3 in the afternoon at 356,64 x 106 mg m-2minute-1 and the highest carbon dioxide emissions occur in pond 3 in the afternoon at 402.145 x 106 mg m-2minute-1. The decrease of COD value in whole anaerobic pool was 52,1% and the decrease of COD value in aerobic pool was 27,2%
THE DETERMINATION OF LANDFILL (TPA) ALTERNATIVE LOCATION IN WEST TULANG BAWANG DISTRICT OF LAMPUNG PROVINCE
West Tulang Bawang is one of the new regencies in Indonesia which was a new expanded area that continues to grow. It is followed by population growth rates resulting in increased volume of waste. The landfill (TPA) is an important component of any waste management system. A good waste has several characteristics. To ensure the appropriate selected land, a systematic process must be developed and followed.The study of the selection of the landfill (TPA) is aimed at finding feasible area as the location of the landfill, so that the allocation of the new landfill will be in accordance with local policies in regional spatial planning and meet the criteria of ISO No. 19-3241-1994. The role of Geographic Information System (GIS) in the management of solid waste is important because many aspects of planning and operations are highly dependent on the spatial data. The landfill selection process consists of three stages of filtering, i.e., the feasibility of the environment by utilizing Geographic Information System (GIS) to map the location of viable landfill, regional filtering phase based on the regional policy and the elimination filtering using SNI 19-3241-1994.The results of the study showed that with an estimated population in 2033 which is 330 807 people, the amount of waste that will go to the landfill through the 3R principle reached 309.36 m3 / day or 61.87 tons / day so that the area of the required land for the sanitary landfill pattern with a 20 year planning is 17.70 Ha. The alternative location was selected by with a priority level which is located on the Panaragan Jaya Utama of Central Tulang Bawang sub-district with a land of 99.68 hectares, Tulang Bawang village districts Panaragan Central with a land area of 136.26 ha and the Kagungan Ratu village of Tulang Bawang sub-district of 74 , 65 Ha
Study of chromium removal from wastewater using SSF-CW model: comparison between physical adsorption by coal CFA and phytoremediation by vetiver grass (Vetiveria Zizanioides L)
The study aims to compare the effectiveness of chromium removal from water using adsorption by coal fly ash (CFA) and phytoremediation by vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides L) as well as a combination of both CFA and vetiver grass. The experiment was carried out in four different reactors, having size of 100 cm (length) x 60 cm (wide) x 80 cm (height). One reactor was filled with gravel and CFA, without vetiver grass (RI), while another one was filled with gravel and vetiver grass, without CFA (RIV). The other two reactors were filled with gravel, CFA, and vetiver grass with the mass ratio of gravel/CFA of (25:2) and (25:1), denoted as RII and RIII, respectively. Fifty (50) L of synthetic wastewater containing 14.612 ppm of chromium was filled into the reactors and continuously recirculated for 15 days. Chromium accumulation in CFA and plants was analyzed on day 15. The results of plant development are indicated by the presence of new shoots and roots that grow during phytoremediation processes. In addition, there was an increase in weight and number of vetiver stems indicating the persistency of vetiver grass in such a harsh wastewater condition. The removal of Cr from wastewater in RI, RII, RIII and RIV at days 15 were 81%, 93.2%, 85.8% and 75.7%, respectively. It can be concluded that: (1) vetiver grass (Vetiveria zizanioides L) has high potential as phytoremediator plant, (2) Chromium adsorption by CFA plays important role in Cr removal from wastewater, and (3) combination of adsorption by CFA and a phytoremediation by vetiver grass significantly increases the removal of chromium from wastewater
Identifikasi kepekaan operasi reaktor alir tangki berpengaduk untuk reaksi paralel melalui model matematik
ABSTRACT:
A Continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) has been simulated matematically. The reactor is used to process a paralel reaction, A to be B and C. By the use of mass and energy balance, the process could be formulated in four nonliniear ordinary deferential equations. Because of their reaction characteristics, operating condition and multiplicity has to be investigated. Operating temperature was chosed based on conversion, productivity, and selectivity. Normal feed flow rate, which is represented in Damkohler number, was taken to avoid multiplicity.
The sensivity of CSTR was identified by using all possible disturbances on the process, i.e. feed flow rate, feed temperature, and feed concentration. Computations was done both for nonlinier differential equations and linierized arround steady state differential equations. The simulation shows
that their result are different significantl
