Pengolahan Air Gambut Pasca Koagulasi Menggunakan Adsorben Arang Cangkang Biji Karet (Hevea Brasiliensis): Pengaruh Konsentrasi Aktivator H3po4 Dan Dosis Adsorben
SUMMARY
Rubber seed shells (Hevea brasiliensis) contain fiber and various carbon compounds such a cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin which are potentially used as adsorbents. In this study, rubber seed shell was carbonized at 500°C for 15 minutes and activated with H3PO4 activator. Various concentrations to find the best conditions of activator H3PO4 are 5; 10; 15%. Activated charcoal produced from rubber seed shell were characterized to determine water content, ash content, and iodine absorption. The characterization that analyzed are functional groups (FTIR), surface morphology and elemental composition (SEM-EDX), and surface area analysis (BET) performed on the best conditions. Rubber seed shell charcoal that activated by H3PO4 10% was the best condition and had characteristics a water content of 0,89%; ash content of 0,24%, iodine absorption 829,77 mg L-1; a hydroxyl, carboxyl, and aromatic groups; surface area of 139,157 m2 g-1; a pore diameter of 19,5885 Å and a total pore volume of 4,989 x 10-2 cm3 g-1. Rubber seed shell activated charcoal was applied for post-coagulation peat water treatment with variations of mass (1,0; 1,5; 2,0)% and 15 minutes for contact time. The best condition of peat water adsorption was obtained at dose of 1,5% (A1,5) with a percentage of color removal 97,07%, turbidity of 86,02%, organic matter 51%, TDS 99,89%, and TSS 80,33%. Rubber seed shell activated charcoal by H3PO4 10% has been able to improve the parameters of odor, color, turbidity, TDS, and TSS in accordance with PERMENKES RI No.32 of 2017 and Peraturan Pemerintah No.82 of 2001.
