FITOREMEDIATION EFFECTIVENESS OF LIQUID WASTE BATIK INDUSTRY WITH GENGER PLANT (Limnocharis flava)

Yanika Cahya Utami, Universitas Negeri Yogyakarta, Indonesia

Abstract


This study aims to 1) determine the effectiveness of genjer plant (Limnocharis flava) as a phytoremediator of batik industrial wastewater seen from the parameters of BOD, COD, TSS and pH, and 2) determine the performance of genjer plant (Limnocharis flava) as a phytoremediator of batik industrial wastewater. seen from the morphology. This research is an experimental study with a composite sample technique. The results showed that, 1) phytoremediation of batik liquid waste was found to be effective in reducing the value of BOD, COD in the 75% dilution treatment with a reduction efficiency of 98.71% and 96.45%, respectively. The most effective decrease in TSS value was at 25% dilution with a reduction efficiency of 92.27%. The pH value after treatment changed to neutral, 2) the performance of genjer (Limnocharis flava) showed a change in both color and growth. Symptoms that arise are leaves and stems turn yellow, chlorosis appears, to indicate a state of necrosis. Although some plants die, genera plants can still live by forming new plant shoots.

Keywords: effectiveness; phytoremediation; chlorosis; batik industry liquid waste; Lymnocharis flava
