Performance Evaluation of Sequencing Batch Reactor for Beverage Industrial Wastewater Treatment

All around the world, activated sludge is the classical and traditional biological wastewater treatment for municipal and industrial wastewater. With the development of social and technology, the concentration of pollutants has been increased, so the performance of the old wastewater treatment plants not guaranteed. Therefore, upgrade and reconstruction wastewater treatment system becomes the main task of protection environment, especially in the developing countries. Application biofilms in process biological wastewater treatment is one of technology method and it has many advantages. In the Sequencing Batch Reactor, the Mutag BioChip 25TM provides to the bacteria an optimal habitat at the surface area, increasing rate of Utilization of Substrates 20 – 30% and efficiency of organic matter removal from 10 – 15%.

Tempeh is the most popular food in Indonesia. The process of making tempeh requires a lot of water. The preliminary analysis of tempeh wastewater showed that the value of COD, BOD and pH are 26693 mg/l, 11204 mg/l and 3,99. This results actually do not meet the Minister of Environment regulation No.5 (2014) about quality standard of wastewater treatment for industry. The quality standard for COD, BOD and PH for tempeh wastewater are 100-300 mg/l, 50-150 mg/l, and 6-9. So, the tempeh industrial wastewater must be processed before being discharged into the environment. The aim of this study is to determine the activated sludge ability to reduce COD, BOD, and also pH value in tempeh industrial wastewater. Tempeh industrial wastewater treatment carried out in aerated batch reactor using wastewater composition 10%, 15%, and 25% (v/v) of tempeh wastewater in 500 ml as a research variables. The wastewater while the hidraulic retention time is 48 hours. The highest COD, BOD removal efficiency occured at 25% (v/v) wastewater composition each for 74,58%, 79,27%. The COD and BOD concentration after treatment are 7625,79 mg/l and 4555,7 mg/l. And pH at 25% (v/v) wastewater composition is 6,92. pH value after treatment meet quality standard of industrial wastewater from Minister of Environment regulation No.5 (2014), but COD and BOD do not meet the standards.

Saat ini usaha industri tahu sedang berkembang. Limbah yang dihasilkan dari industri tahu akan menjadi suatu permasalahan bagi lingkungan. Pengolahan air limbah industri tahu dapat dilakukan dengan cara pengolahan biologis karena dapat menurunkan kandungan organik pada air limbah tahu. Salah satu teknologi pengolahan limbah yang efektif dan efisien adalah Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR). Prinsip operasi SBR adalah mengisi dan menarik (fill and draw), yang terdiri dari lima tahap yaitu pengisian (fill), reaksi (reaction), pengendapan (settle), pembuangan air olahan (decand) dan pembuangan lumpur (idle). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kinerja SBR dengan penambahan impeller pada fase aerobik dalam menurunkan kandungan BOD, PO4 dan N Total pada air limbah tahu. SBR dioperasikan dengan waktu retensi hidrolik (HRT) dan kecepatan pengadukan yang bervariasi, yaitu masing-masing sebesar 24, 36 jam dan 48 jam serta kecepatan pengadukan sebesar 50, 100 dan 150 rpm. Dari hasil penelitian didapatkan HRT dan kecepatan pengadukan optimum, yaitu masing-masing sebesar 48 jam dan 150 rpm. Dengan efisiensi penyisihan BOD, PO4 dan N Total yang dihasilkan, masing-masing sebesar 93,33%, 90,97% dan 93,73%. Kata kunci: air limbah tahu, impeller, kecepatan, pengadukan, Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR), waktu retensi hidrolik (HRT). Currently the tofu industry is growing. The waste produced from the tofu industry will be a problem for the environment. Tofu industrial wastewater treatment can be done by biological treatment because it can reduce the organic content in tofu wastewater. One of the effective and efficient waste treatments is Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR). The principle of operation of the SBR is fill and draw, which consists of five stages, fill,, reaction, settle, decand and idle. This study aims to see the performance of SBR with the addition of an impeller in the aerobic phase in reducing the content of BOD, PO4 and Total N in tofu wastewater. SBR is operated with a hydraulic retention time (HRT) and varying stirring speeds, namely 24, 36 and 48 hours respectively and stirring speeds of 50, 100 and 150 rpm. The results showed that the optimal HRT and stirring speed were 48 hours and 150 rpm, respectively. With the efficiency of BOD, PO4 and Total N removal produced, respectively 93,33%, 90,97% and 93,73%.
