Pengolahan Air Limbah Hotel Dengan Metode Free Surface Constructed Wetland Menggunakan Tumbuhan Equisetum hymale
Abstract: Throwing domestic
waste water directly to the drainage without treatment hadcaused the water
pollution. The effect of water pollution can disturb the health andwater biota.
One of simple technology to decrease the pollutant in the water isconstructed
wetland. This research aims to determine the effectiveness of freesurface
constructed wetland with bamboo plants in a peat soil water and treatwaste
water using detention time 1,2,3 and 4 respectively 3 replications.
Eachdetention time and repetition experiences the same treatment in terms of
both thetype and volume of waste water. The Fluctuations of waste water, rain
water andthe occupancy rate in this study were not taken into account. The
quality parameterof water that was tested are pH, COD, TSS. Statistic
calculation that was used inthis research is one way Anova (Analysis of
variance). The result of the researchshowed that the constructed wetland with
peat and water bamboo (Equisetumhymale) resulted the highest effeciency in
decreasing pH from 8.5 to 6 or 29.41% ,COD from 97.7 mg/l to 43 mg/l or 55.98%
, and TSS from 447.90 mg/l to 66.00mg/l or 85.26%. Constructed wetland with the
media of peat and without using theplant resulted the highest effeciency in
decreasing pH from 8.5 to 6.5 or 23.53% ,COD from 250 mg/l to 173 mg/l or 30.8%
, and TSS from 447.90 to 79.20 mg/l or82.32% All result showed that constructed
wetland can improve the quality of thewaste water.
