PENGGUNAAN KITOSAN DARI KULIT UDANG DALAM MENURUNKAN KADAR TOTAL SUSPENDED SOLID (TSS) PADA LIMBAH CAIR INDUSTRI PLYWOOD
Abstract: This research
carried out in the laboratory of waste Processing Technologyand the laboratory
of Water Quality Management in the FAPERIKA – UNRI. Theaim of this research is
to identify the ability of chitosan in reducing the level ofTSS in the liquid
waste of plywood industry. The method used in this research isexperimental
study with complete randomized block, one factor, 4 level, 12 unitsof trial.
Several chitosan concentration ie 0 mg/l, 15 mg/l, 30 mg/l appliedsampling were
conducted in the is 8th hours, 12 th hours and 16 th hours.Resultshowh that 12
hours after addition of 30 mg chitosan / l, the quality of the wasteimproved :
TSS 182,3 – 56,7 mg/l, Phenol 2,4 - 0,5 mg/l, BOD5 132-93 mg/l,COD 279-217 mg/l
and pH 6 - 9. compared with KEP – 51/MENLH/10/1995 thequality of the treated
waste is good so, it can be concluded that.
