| Summary: | This study was conducted to obtain the effective method decreasing COD
level of the waste water from herbal medicine industry. The investigated methods
were photodegradation catalyzed by TiO2, oxidation using CaOCl as an oxidising
agent, and the combination methods with the order of oxidation-
photodegradation, and that of photodegradation-oxidation. The photodegradation
of organic compounds in the waste water was carried out by irradiating the
mixture of the wastewater and TiO2 photocatalyst in the close reactor equipped
with the UV-lamp. In this process, the influence of irradiation time and
photocatalyst mass were studied. The oxidation was carried out by reacting the
waste water with CaOCl. In this oxidation, the reaction time and mass of CaOCl
were also optimized. The combination of the two methods in decreasing the COD
level was performed at the optimum conditions of each method. The effectiveness
of the processes was represented as COD level decreasing. The determination of
COD level was conducted using reflux-volumetric bichromatometry method.
The research results showed that photodegradation for 24 h and with 75
mg of TiO2 gave the maximum effectiveness in decreasing COD level from
19,556.57 to 2,262.86 mg/L. Mean while using oxidation method, the maximum
decreasing COD level, became 1,828.57 mg/L can be achieved when 24 h of time
and 75 mg of CaOCl was applied. It was clear seen that the former was less
effective in decreasing the COD level than the latter. The combination methods
with order of photodegradation- oxidation result in decreasing COD level to be
571.43 mg/L, that is still higher than regulated. The combination methods with the
order of oxidation- photodegradation can decrease the COD level into 228.6
mg/L which meets the index quality regulated by the government, i.e. below 300
mg/L. It is recommended to apply the combination methods with order oxidation-
photodegradation for treatment wastewater of herbal medicine industry |
