Industri kertas menghasilkan air limbah dari kegiatan produksi dan proses flue gas desulphurization (air limbah wet scrubber). Senyawa nutrisi (senyawa karbon, nitrogen, dan fosfat) yang masih terdapat dalam air limbah terolah dan air limbah wet scrubber belum dimanfaatkan secara optimal dan berpotensi sebagai media pertumbuhan Spirulina platensis. Penelitian dengan variasi komposisi air limbah dan fotoperiode (24 jam terang dan 12 jam terang/12 jam gelap) telah dilakukan dalam skala laboratorium selama 9 hari. Pengukuran pH media, pertumbuhan S. platensis (konsentrasi biomassa, laju pertumbuhan spesifik, dan waktu penggandaan), dan kandungan fikosianin dilakukan setiap hari untuk melihat pengaruh komposisi media dan perlakuan fotoperiode terhadap pertumbuhan S. platensis. Hasil menunjukkan bahwa S. platensis dapat tumbuh dengan baik pada semua komposisi air limbah terolah dan air limbah wet scrubber yang diujicobakan. Konsentrasi biomassa tertinggi sebesar 831 mg/L dan laju pertumbuhan spesifik tertinggi sebesar 0,52 hari-1 dengan waktu penggandaan 0,4 hari diperoleh dari perlakuan fotoperiode 24 jam terang. Komposisi air limbah terolah dan air limbah wet scrubber tidak memberikan pengaruh yang nyata terhadap konsentrasi biomassa, tetapi perbedaan fotoperiode sangat berpengaruh terhadap konsentrasi biomassa sehingga dalam aplikasi skala lapangan perlu mempertimbangkan sistem pencahayaan untuk pertumbuhan S. platensis yang optimal.Kata kunci: Spirulina platensis, media pertumbuhan, fotoperiode, air limbah terolah, air limbah wet scrubberThe Effect of Composition of Paper Industry Wastewater as A Growth Medium and Photoperiod on The Culture of Spirulina platensisAbstractThe paper industry produces wastewater from its production activities and the flue gas desulphurization process (wet scrubber wastewater). Nutritional compounds (carbon, nitrogen and phosphate compounds) which are still in treated wastewater and wet scrubber wastewater have not been utilized optimally and have potential as growth media of Spirulina platensis. Research on wastewater compositions and photoperiod variations (24 hours light and 12 hours light/12 hours dark) was carried out on a laboratory scale for 9 days. Measurements of medium pH, growth of S. platensis (biomass concentration, specific growth rate, and doubling time), and phycocyanin content were carried out every day to study the effect of wastewater composition and photoperiod treatment on the growth of S. platensis. The results showed that S. platensis can grow well on all compositions of treated wastewater and wet scrubber wastewater. The highest biomass concentration of 831 mg/L and the highest specific growth rate of 0.52 days-1 with a doubling time of 0,4 days is obtained from 24-hour light photoperiod treatment. The composition of treated wastewater and wet scrubber wastewater has no significant effect on the biomass concentration but the photoperiod differences greatly influence the biomass concentration so that in the field scale application it is necessary to consider the lighting system for optimal S. platensis growth. Keywords:  Spirulina platensis, growth medium, photoperiod, treated wastewater, wet scrubber wastewater

" In this study, gas flow field were simulated using ANSYS 2020R2, Fluid Flow Fluent computational fluids dynamic (CFD) software based on the continuity, velocity, temperature, energy and k -  turbulence. The overall objective of the study is to compare the pressure and velocity maps inside the wet scrubber system for two different scrubber designs. I have choose to analyse an In-Line scrubber bottom inlet, type I, and In-Line scrubber side inlet, type L. Bottom entry or side entry designs to allow a direct up-flow configuration and simplify engine exhaust gas duct routing for any type of vessel. The flow in a wet scrubber is very complex due to the interaction between dust particles, water droplets, and bulk water and flue gas. The flue gas flow is turbulent and there are multiple phases (gas, liquid and solid). CFD codes that predict gas flow patterns are based on conservation equations for mass, momentum and energy. The results show that the residuals have a very good job of converging at minimum flow contours and vectors at the inlet across the scrubbing chamber and outlet shows a distributed flow. The velocity profiles have fully conformed to the recommended profile for turbulent flow in pipes. As can be seen in the figures above, the velocity flow contour inside the scrubber is higher in the scrubber side inlet. Even though I choose to study the simplified scrubber model without taking into account that spray nozzle improve mixing between the scrubbing liquid and waste gas; from the results obtained, it can be deduced that the numerical simulation using CFD is an effective method to study the flow characteristics of a counter-flow wet scrubber system.
