WATER QUALITY MODELING USING QUAL2KW TO IDENTIFY THE WASTE LOAD CAPACITY OF THE UPPER CITARUM RIVER (WITH PARAMETERS: BOD, COD, AND TSS)

Utilization of the Citarum River varies greatly from household needs, agriculture, agriculture, animal husbandry to the industrial sektor. However, these activities are causing pollution along the Citarum river. Based on measurements in the upstream area of Citarum the levels of BOD, COD, and TSS in...

Description
Summary:Utilization of the Citarum River varies greatly from household needs, agriculture, agriculture, animal husbandry to the industrial sektor. However, these activities are causing pollution along the Citarum river. Based on measurements in the upstream area of Citarum the levels of BOD, COD, and TSS in the upstream Citarum river have exceeded the Class II water quality criteria. 82/2001 at all sampling locations. The main objective of this research is the evaluation of surface quality in the upstream of 80 km of Citarum River and the pollution load capacity by considering various simulation scenarios. To realize the problems of river management and pollution control, it is necessary to review the waste load capacity and environmental risk that can be done to calculate the waste load should be reduced and an appropriate development strategy. The parameters that will be discussed in this study are pH, discharge, temperature, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Total Suspended Solid (TSS), and Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD). Simulations of various skenarios are carried out using QUAL2Kw 5.1 software which has the ability to predict water quality when using added waste sources. The parameter model is calibrated by trial and error until the simulation results match the studied data. A calibrated QUAL2Kw model is used to calculate pollutant load capacity. As a result, the upstream load capacity of the Basin River pollutants for the BOD, COD, and TSS parameters was 23,402.93 kg / day, 134,022.8 kg / day, and 179.524.5 kg / day.
