Anaerobic Reactor for Indonesian Tofu Wastewater Treatment

Abstract: An Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Blanket (UASB) reactor was used to process liquid wastes from a tofu industry with COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) 7619 mg/L, pH 4, and TSS (Total Suspended Solid) 1035 mg/L. This work is part of efforts to clean Citarum River in West Java, Indonesia, named as Citarum Harum national program. The liquid Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) in the reactor was varied from 2, 3, 4, and 5 days and the resulting COD outputs were 6783 mg/L, 6494 mg/L, 5806 mg/L, and 4722 mg/L respectively. The resul… Show more

“…Salah satunya adalah dengan meningkatkan rasio C/N sebagai pengisi biogas dan dapat meningkatkan kadar gas metana. Limbah air tahu ini juga memiliki komposisi gas metana 56,4%, karbon dioksida 42.7%, sehingga memungkinkan untuk digunakan sebagai bahan baku biogas (Adisasmito et al, 2018).…”

“…The methane gas content produced from tofu industrial waste also varies. Adisasmito in his research, produced 56% Concentration and Flow Rate methane gas and 43% carbon dioxide gas [7]. While Harihastuti's research, the biogas digester produced a product containing around 46% methane gas, 30% carbon dioxide gas, and other gases, including ammonia, hydrogen sulfide and other gases [8], [9].…”

“…Due to the comparatively high processing costs, many tofu industries in Indonesia continue to dispose of untreated liquid effluent. Tofu industry costs must be reduced by enhanced waste treatment [3, [7][8][9][10][11]. The anaerobic process has an economic advantage in which the sludge produced is low so it does not need to pay for the handling of sludge caused by anaerobic reactors which is an immediate economic benefit [8,[12][13][14][15].…”
