Analysis of Levels and Content of Sludge Solid Waste in PDAM Bandarmasih

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the level and content of the existing sludge in the solid waste sludge of PDAM Bandarmasih. The data used in the study is that the data lab to analyze the level of content that is contained in the waste solid sludge. While that becomes the object of research is a sample waste solid   sludge taps Bandarmasih are contained in two places, namely the WWTP 1 in Jalan A. Yani Km.2 and WWTP 2 in Jalan Pramuka KM.6 Banjarmasin. The tools used to analysis the levels of waste solid sludge that is a tool of analysis Spectrophotometer Absorption Atomic (SSA) and Spectrophotometer UV-Vis. The parameters tested include measurement of sludge pH, determination of water content and sample. Testing levels are needed that level of content of Mg, Cu, Fe, K, P and Cd using methods spectrophotometry, while to establish the total N using the method of Kjeldahl. Based on the results of the study showed that the concentration of Mg in WWTP 1was0.47%whileinWWTP 2 it was 0.38%, for Fe content in WWTP 1 7.87% and WWTP 2 7.64%. And for the content of K and P the level difference is not too significant, K 0.85% and 0.88%, P 0.54% and 0.52%, while for N levels are quite far, 1.12% and 1.35%. Based on the results of the data analysis of content and the content of the mud have fill the value of the threshold limit of sludge that can be used.
