Judul: Kajian proses denitrifikasi limbah organik dengan sistem modified ludzak-Ettinger : Studi kasus pada instalasi pengolahan air limbah IPAJ PT Capsugel Indonesia-Cibinong
Abstrak: Industrial wastewater effluents discharged that contains high nitrate concentration can cause eutrophication, poisoned to baby and child, and also toxic to water biota. High nitrate concentration in drinking water can cause Methemoglobinemia (blue babies). Nitrate-nitrogen yielded from ammonium- nitrogen oxidation through aerobic pond on WWTP. The case study at WWTP of PT. Capsugel Indonesia (PTC) was aimed to optimalize denitrification process in order to achieve the nitrate effluent quality as according to Baku Mutu I. This research was initiated by identification of WWTP process, analysing process influencing denitrification and followed by various process such as: an internal recycle treatment, SRT and HRT treatment at clarifier, jar test and determination of methanol dosing (as additional substrat) that influenced denitrification. All analytical procedures followed a Standard Operation Procedure (SOP) from WWTP PTC and based on HACH manual book and APHA 1992. Modified Ludzak-Ettinger (MLE) is a model which is most commonly used at WWTP because of its simply process. MLE represent nitrification- denitrification system in a single sludge activated-sludge for nitrogen removal which combine carbon removal, amonia oxidation and nitrate reductation in the same process. Shock loading and fluctuation of ammonium-nitrogen in the influent reduced WWTP performance. Initially, nitrate concentration level has been controled by adjusting the rate of mixed liquor recicling. Mixed liquor from aerobic pond to anoxic pond wes expected can bring nitrate as much as possible for oxidizing carbon source where nitrates replace oxygen in denitrification. Increasing of the mixed liquor recirculation rate really did not bring nitrate degradation level to the effluent. This happened because all COD as carbon source in anoxic pond have been used so that anoxic pond reached the maximum capacity for denitrification. Another possibility is that WWTP depend on carbon source only from waste influent. Carbon source from influent pertained a slowly biodegradable COD so denitrification rate also became slow. One of MLE system purpose is to reduce the cost of additional carbon sources, but in this case, the system was actually require external carbon sources. This research used technical methanol 2% (v/v) with dosing rate was 4 L/h combined with internal return rate (IR) = 4Q, the return activated sludge (RAS) rate IQ and influen rates (Q) = 1.2 m³/h gave acceptable results for nitrate-nitrogen removal. This combination reduced the average effluent nitrate concentration from 46.07 mg/L NO3-N to 12.6 mg/L NO3-N. This value below the regulation of Baku Mutu 1. The methanol addition in WWTP increased alkalinity formed during denitrification. It reduced up to 80% of Na2CO3 consumption.

Judul: Rancangan Instalasi Pengolahan Air limbah Industri dengan proses biologis Biological nutrient removal
Abstrak: Kegiatan industri yang menghasilkan limbah cair, berpotensi menimbulkan pencemaran air di lingkungan apabila tidak diolah dengan sesuai. Penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis dan mengidentifikasi karakteristik limbah cair PT. W, membuat rancangan unit IPAL yang sesuai, serta menganalisis efektivitas penggunaan mikroba pada pengolahan biologis biological nutrient removal. Metode pengujian serta baku mutu yang digunakan adalah SNI pengujian air limbah, Peraturan Menteri Negara Lingkungan Hidup Nomor 03 Tahun 2010, dan Keputusan Gubernur DKI Jakarta No. 582 Tahun 2005. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa nilai Total Suspended Solids (TSS), amonia (NH3), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Sulfida (S), minyak dan lemak serta fecal coliform melampaui baku mutu sehingga perlu diolah lebih lanjut. Rancangan unit IPAL yang digunakan adalah bak ekualisasi, bak penampung, bar screen, grit chamber, sedimentasi primer, biological nutrient removal, clarifier, desinfeksi, sludge thickener, sludge digester, dan sludge drying bed. Biological nutrient removal merupakan unit pengolahan biologis suspended growth yang dipilih karena unit dapat dirancang untuk menurunkan nilai BOD, TSS, dan NH3 menjadi 10 mg/l, 10 mg/l, dan 1 mg/l. Tingkat efektivitas penggunaan mikroorganisme dalam unit ini dapat diketahui dari persen penurunan nilai parameter pencemar., Industrial activities that produces waste water, causes water pollution if it not treated properly. The research objectives were to analyze and identify PT. W wastewater characteristic, to design an appropriate WWTP of PT. W and analyze the effectiveness of microorganism at biological process biological nutrient removal. The method used was based on SNI of wastewater analyzing, Regulation of Minister of the Environment Number 03/2010, and DKI Jakarta‘s Governor Regulation Number 582/2005. Result of the analysis showed TSS, NH3, S, BOD, COD, oil and grease, and fecal coliform exceeded the threshold. The units that used are equalization tank, bar screen, grit chamber, primary sedimentation, biological nutrient removal (BNR), clarifier, disinfection, sludge thickener, sludge digester, and sludge drying bed. Biological nutrient removal is suspended growth biological process were chosen because it could remove BOD, TSS, and NH3 concentration into 10 mg/l, 10 mg/l, and 1 mg/l. The effectivity of microorganism uses can be known by percent removal of indicator concentrations.

Judul: Penggunaan Teorema Homeomorphy 2-Manifold dan Teorema Euler Poincare pada Torus 𝑇�� dan Simplicial Complex 𝐾��
Abstrak: Two dimensional topological spaces are said to be homeomorphic if they have the same topological invariant, where one of topological invariant used is an Euler characteristic. Homeomorphy 2-Manifold’s Theorem and Euler Poincare’s Theorem are used to distinguish two topological spaces. Homeomorphy 2-Manifold’s Theorem uses Euler characteristic to identify two dimensional topological spaces. Euler Poincare’s Theorem is an alternative way to find Euler characteristic with Betti number, which is topological invariant as well. The objective of this paper is to investigate the homeomorphism of torus 𝑇����� and simplicial complex 𝐾�����. Topological space torus and simplicial complex 𝐾����� have the same Euler characteristic, which is two. Based on Homeomorphy 2-Manifold’s Theorem topological space torus 𝑇����� and simplicial complex 𝐾����� is homeomorphic.
