Pengaruh Ukuran Partikel Dan Waktu Kontak Terhadap Penyisihan Zat Organik Dan Mangan (Mn) Pada Air Gambut Menggunakan Tanah Lempung Gambut Yang Diaktivasi Asam Sulfat Sebagai Adsorben
ABSTRACT
Peat water contains high levels of Mn, Fe and organic substances. If used
continuously for a long time can cause negative impacts such as health problems
so it needs special processing in order to become clean water. This study aims to
determine the influence of particle size and contact time on the efficiency of
allowance of organic and manganese substances (Mn) in peat water as well as
adsorption capacity in the adsorption process using chemically activated peat clay
soil with sulfuric acid as an adsorbent. The study varied the size of adsorbent
particles -20 +40, -60 +80 and -80 +100 mesh with adsorbent mass of 6 gr/L and
contact time variations of 120, 140 and 160 minutes with stirring speed of 150 rpm.
The results showed the allowance of organic substances and manganese (Mn) was
best obtained at adsorbent particle size -80 +100 mesh and contact time of 160
minutes with an organic substance allowance efficiency value of 85.31% and
manganese (Mn) of 82.27%. The best adsorption capacity is achieved at -80 +100
mesh particle size and 160 minutes contact time with organic substance adsorption
capacity value of 61.58 mg/g and manganese (Mn) of 0.099 mg/g.
