Efektifitas kinerja Instalasi Pengolahan Air Limbah (IPAL) industri Gula di Kabupaten Kediri dan Kabupaten Sidoarjo

Wastewater from sugar industries has complex characteristics and depends on the production capacity. The main aim of this study is to determine the effectiveness of the waste water treatment processes (WWTP) of two sugar factories PG. Kediri and PG. Sidoarjo in reducing pH, BOD, COD, and TSS during year 2016 and 2017. Wastewater influents in both factories exceeded the water quality standards of Ministry of Environment Regulation Number 5 Year 2014. After treatments, water quality parameters of the effluents including pH, BOD, COD and TSS were significantly decreased. The effectiveness of the PG Kediri WWTP in reducing BOD, COD and TSS was 98.52%; 98.47% and 91.51% respectively. The effectiveness of PG Sidoarjo WWTP in reducing BOD, COD and TSS was 5-20% lower than that of PG. Kediri.
