Pemanfaatan Lumpur Sidoarjo untuk Sintesis Fotokatalis Microball Fe2O3 Zeolit-Kitosan sebagai Pendegradasi Limbah Tempe
ABSTRACT: The sludge from
sidoarjo have high Fe 2 O 3 content of about 62,19%. This content have
potential to prepare as photocatalyst for degraded fermented soybean waste by
support sunlight. Synthesis of Fe 2 O 3
zeolit-chitosan photocatalyst was carried out by impregnation into
zeolite. Adding chitosan into the mixture of Fe 2 O 3 zeolite then cast to be granules.
Characterization of photocatalyst obtained using spectrophotometer IR, XRD, and
DRS. Microball photocatalyst of Fe 2 O 3
zeolit-chitosan with variation of pH 4, 6, and 8 then were done test of
degradation performance by sunlight during 4 hours. As the result, the optimum
pH of photocatalyast via COD test is pH 8. The higher base of photocatalyst,
decreasing of degradation is higher.
