The wastewater generated from all industries should discharge into the estate sewerage system, which flows to the centralized wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) of Jababeka Industrial Estate. One of the wastewater parameter problem is ammonia. This research to study ammonia removal using natural granular Zeolite filter in wastewater by variations of granular size and different volume (expressed as height) of Zeolite to meet the required standard. This experiment was carried out using artificial samples of 75 mg/L of ammonia in the laboratory scale that indicate with APHA, AWWA, and WEF, no 4500-NH3 as the analysis method. The result proved that using a natural Zeolite filter could reduce the ammonia concentration, with the efficiency of removal was 91.6%. The 0.5cm granular size at the height of 5 cm (289.25 cm3 of Zeolite) with a result of 6.25 mg/L after 120 minutes and the 0.5 cm grain size at the height of 6 cm (347.81 cm3 of Zeolite) can achieve the same performance after a shorter time of 60 minutes. Both results were below the ammonia’s Jababeka Wastewater Quality Standard of 10 mg/L.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
