Abstract

The batik industry is one of the industries that develops from time to time. Among the problems that are still a concern today is industrial waste, especially the content of dyes. Reactive dyes found in batik wastewater are very harmful in the environment, and so far only a few industries process the batik waste before disposing of it into the environment. AOPs technology is a combination of several processes such as ozone (O3), hydrogen peroxide, UV light, titanium oxide, photocatalyst, electrolysis, electron beam, electrical discharge, and several others to produce hydroxyl radicals. One method of AOPs is the process of using fenton reagents. This study aims to identify the impact of variations that occur on the active components of batik color waste. The results showed that the use of zeolite catalysts tends to be more effective in absorbing polar components and less effective in absorbing organic matter. This statement is supported by a higher percentage of removal from natural zeolite than activated carbon which is 100%.
