Blue Water Footprint and Grey Water Footprint Assessment of Block-Printed Batik-Making Process Coloured by Indigo (Indigofera sp.), Tingi (Ceriops sp.) and Mahogany (Swietenia sp.) Dyes

Abstract: The Indonesian batik, which is usually produced by small and medium enterprises (SMEs) often consumes a lot of water and causing environmental pollution. Therefore, a study to map the water use for batik production is required. This study examines the Blue Water Footprint (BWF) and Grey Water Footprint (GWF) of block-printed batik making-process coloured by Indigo (Indigofera sp.), Mahogany (Swietenia sp.) and Tingi (Ceriops sp.) dyes produced by a batik SME in Jarum village of Klaten Regency, Indonesia. The a… Show more

“…The value of the grey water footprint is greater than the blue water footprint. A high COD level will result in a greater GWF, which indicates that a larger volume of water will be required to dilute the pollutant [24]. According to the study's findings, batik manufacturers need to be made more aware of the need to conserve water and properly handle wastewater in order to maintain environmental requirements.…”

“…These batik-making processes mostly utilize clean and not-so-clean water; the water utilization quantity for batik production is related to the wastewater (Handayani et al 2021). The water used in batik production created an environmental problem (Widianarko et al 2021). Batik production is part of the textile industry that is the major contributor to environmental water contamination.…”
