Design for Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTP) for Cattle in a Single House Model with a Bio Filter Process

Abstract

Liquid waste generated from cattle farms is discharged directly into culvert and river. The liquid waste is not treated so it has high potential to threaten and pollute the water and ground water environment. With the average flushing done twice a day, the gross amount of wastewater that is wasted is not less than 100-150 liters/day/cattle for weight 400 kg (Saputro et al. 2014). Therefore a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) is needed to control the massive liquid waste. In addition, WWTP must be simple, inexpensive, and appropriate so that the community can apply it. Data collection is needed, namely data on the number of cattle livestock, waste water quality data and waste water discharge data. The organic parameters of cattle waste that are considered are BOD, COD, TSS, NH3-N, and pH only (Regulation of the State Minister for the Environment Number 11 Year 2009 concerning Wastewater Quality Standards for Cattle and Pork Businesses and/or Activities). Design for wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) model using the MSL (Multi Soil Layering) method (Alternative 1) and the combination of MSL with anaerobic wasps nest biofilter (Alternative 2) (Said et al. 2001). Compare the effluent results in the both alternatives that available the quality standards and analyze more optimally.

“…Waste management at the smallholder farm level tends to be difficult to implement. The lack of knowledge of the farming community about the importance of protecting the environment in addition to focusing on production is homework for all of us to overcome; it is better for smallholder farms to come together to form livestock groups so that counseling on the utilization of livestock waste [16,17,18,19,20] can be realized. In addition, by forming groups, farmers are also easily touched by government assistance such as biogas installations so that waste is not wasted.…”
