Abstract
his research was conducted in Nusa Lembongan Island, Bali, with the aim to know the waste management model which using model of pond with plant media, in accordance with Government Regulation No. 82 Year 2001 on the management of water quality and air pollution control. In maintaining the environment ( green tourism ) since 2000, Bali has developed Tri Hita Karana Award and Accreditation Program (THK Awards Program) to hotels in Bali. Water recycling process is one of the conditions that must be possessed by hotel industry with environmental vision. The tourism industry in Bali has a positive impact on economic growth but is suspected as a polluter of the environment. Tourism industry activities cannot be separated from the need to water. Disposable waste discharges cannot cause contamination of the environment itself. Result of physical, chemical and biological quality parameter analysis either in situ (in location) or laboratory. Quantitatively, the manmade pond has potential to become an alternative water resource and needs some process. One method of pond treatment in Indonesia are constructed wetlands due to the diversity of vegetation, the simple construction, flexible, easy and inexpensive operation and maintenance and has aesthetic value. The pollutant reducing vegetation in the pond at this research is jasmine because it is easy to grow, doesn’t need special maintenance, and from some studies it was proofed to be effective in reducing BOD and COD at average of 73%.
Highlights
One problem which is faced by Bali as a tourist destination in Indonesia is in realizing sustainable development which includes three aspects, namely economic, social and cultural and environment sustainability
The quality of wastewater is the conditions of material of DO, pH, BOD5, COD, NO2, and NO3 that contain in the water
The results showed that the manmade pond system is efficient enough to reduce the physical oxygen demand of 69.9% and TDS 57%
Summary
One problem which is faced by Bali as a tourist destination in Indonesia is in realizing sustainable development which includes three aspects, namely economic, social and cultural and environment sustainability. Increasingly complex environmental problems today, originated from biased development planning between prioritizing local revenues (PAD) rather than ecology. This causes accumulation into environmental pollution, so that the cost of environmental impacts that must be paid by the community and government is much bigger than the economical benefits. Besides being the largest contributor to local revenue, the tourism industry is suspected of being the most dominant environmental polluter in Bali. Household waste from tourism industry activities must undergo a recycling process before being disposed, so that it can be reused, for example for watering gardens and irrigating fish ponds, or returning the environment without causing environmental pollution (Government Regulation No 82 Year 2001) [2], and Article 18 paragraph (1) Law No 32 Year 2009 concerning Environmental Control and Management
