Abstract
Wastewater generated from industrial processes including the batik industry in Indonesia contains high organic pollutants and dyes. In this study, the advanced oxidation process that will produce hydroxyl radicals was used to degrade pollutants in this batik industry wastewater. This study aims to compare the Fenton and Persulfate processes with the influence of variations in the concentration of Fe2+ and S2O8 2- added. This method is carried out by adding H2O2 as an oxidant which is added to each catalyst, namely Fe2+ and S2O8 2- in the presence of a combination of UV light. Fenton process was carried out in 60 minutes and Persulfate process was carried out in 45 minutes. In this study, there was a tendency to increase the efficiency of COD and color removal along with the increasing concentration of each catalyst added. The highest COD and color removal efficiency occurred at a ratio of H2O2:Fe2+ and H2O2: S2O8 2- of 1: 0.08.
