ABSTRACT
Domestic waste water is waste water that comes from daily activities of
human life related to water usage and is a combination of kitchen, toilet,
bathroom, laundry, etc. which usually contains organic pollutant. One technique
in treating domestic wastewater is to use aeration techniques. This research aims
to determine the optimum aeration time and evaluate the efficiency and
effectiveness of aeration for decreasing levels of Biochemical Oxygen Demand
(BOD), Chemical Oxgen Demand (COD) and Ammonia (N-NH3) Quality
standards from domestic wastewater are regulated in PERMENLH No. 68 of
2016.
Domestic wastewater inlet is sampled and then aeration process is carried
out with 6 time variations, there are 30 minutes, 60 minutes, 90 minutes, 120
minutes, 150 minutes, and 180 minutes, each time variation is taken, then the
BOD content is determined by the winkler method, COD with the method closed
reflux, and N-NH3 by the phenate method. The data obtained is then processed
with statistics using the one-way ANOVA method, and determined the
effectiveness and efficiency of aeration
The results obtained effective time in the aeration process for 120 minutes.
For the analysis of domestic wastewater in the aeration process for 120 minutes
produces a BOD content of 17,01 mg / L and an efficiency of 71,73% with a
maximum BOD content of 30 mg / L. COD levels were 62,19 mg / L and
efficiency was 77,22% with a maximum COD level of 100 mg / L. The N-NH3
level was 7,78 mg / L and the efficiency was 73,22% with a maximum level of N?NH3 10 mg / L
