Potential of Phytoremediation Using Kiambang (Salvinia molesta) for Treating Textile Industry Wastewater in Indonesia
Keywords:

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of phytoremediation using plants in reducing chromium (Cr) levels and modifying pH in batik wastewater. The research was conducted using three experimental tanks: Control Tank (without plants), Tank 1 (with 8 plants) and Tank 2 (with 16 plants). The results showed that in the control tank the pH fluctuated and reached 8.1 on the 9th day, while in tank 1 and tank 2 the pH was more controlled with peak values of 7.9 and 8.2 respectively. The most significant reduction in chromium levels occurred in tank 2, with treatment efficacy reaching 70% on day 9, compared to 45% in tank 1 and 10.5% in the control tank. These results indicate that phytoremediation with more plants can significantly improve the treatment efficiency of batik wastewater, making it a potential and environmentally friendly method for industrial wastewater treatment. The phytoremediation method was carried out by observing variations in the number of plants using 3 reactor tanks. The first tank was a control tank, the second tank (BR2) contained 8 plants and the third tank (BR3) contained 16 plants. Samples were taken on days 3, 6 and 9. The results showed that the highest effectiveness in reducing total chromium (Cr) levels occurred in the third tank (BR3) on day 9, with a reduction of 70%.
