Rancangan Sistem Filtrasi Ganda untuk Pengolaan Air Limbah Laundry Rumah Tangga

Abstract

The household laundry wastewater contains detergents that can cause water pollution. The habit of many household to directly throw the laundry wastewater into water body, will have an impact on environmental damage in the future. Some previous researchers have made observations on filtration system to treat laundry wastewater. The development of current filtration technology, has recommended the double filtration system for drinking water and wastewater treatment. This research is an experiment to design double filtration system for household laundry wastewater treatment. The research were designed the multiple filtration system for the household laundry wastewater treatment, with parameters observations such as: color,smell , TSS and pH. The result of this experiment shown that the water produced by the system becoming harmless and colorless. The Observations on TSS parameter values shown a decrease of 26.27%, from 150 ppm to 110 ppm, while the pH value are increased from 5.4 to 5.8. Keywords : Filtration, Wastewater, Laundry Wastewater
