The writer chose to research about the feasibility study of Fenton process as a method for WWTP (wastewater treatment plant) as the first step to solve the pollution problem of Citarum River. The research was done through literature study from journals, books, market, and practitions to receive theories, data, and designs. The optimum conditions were taken from three journals: Liu & Li, Patil & Raut, dan Liu et al.. Technical feasibility was researched through the amount of COD removal that fulfills the standard, the optimum operational condition, the suitability between the design & tools with literature, and the availability of ingredients and tools. Economic feasibility was researched through minimum capital expenditure (prices of land, constructions, and tools) and minimum operational expenditure (prices of electricity and ingredients). The COD removal from AOPs was 46.7-82% depending on the chosen optimum conditions. The effective temperature was the room temperature and the most effective reaction time was 30 minutes. The design and tools were researched from journals and practitions. Ingredients and tools could be found in market or practitions. The minimum capital expenditure was Rp 1.668.400.000 and the minimum operational expenditure was Rp 1.894.189-2.666.314/day or Rp 6.314-8.888/m3 wastewater volume depending on the chosen optimum conditions. The writer hopes that the literature study that has been done by the writer can help the government, industries, society, and the reader.
