Enhancing Domestic Wastewater Treatment: A Study on the Efficacy of Tiered Filtration and a Combined Photocatalytic Ozonation Methods
Journal Title: Engineering and Technology Journal - Year 2024, Vol 9, Issue 05
Abstract
This study aimed to construct an optimized reactor using photocatalytic ozonation, and its effectiveness was determined using PermenLHK No. 86/2016. The Tanjung Uma housing estate in Batam city was selected as the study sample site for domestic wastewater because of its role as a significant water body that receives liquid waste from a majority of activities across the city. The experiment employed a quantitative research approach and a true experimental approach, testing variables (catalyst weight, UV irradiation time, and ozonation duration) in a laboratory setting (25°C and 40-70% Humidity). The study found that the optimized parameter (a combination of 2 h of irradiation, with 2 g of TiO2 along with 5 min of ozonation) resulted in a significant difference in water quality parameters compared to before treatment with 92% effectivity. It can be concluded that this Reactor prototype was highly successful in reducing environmental impacts based on its effectiveness
