Abstract

Aking rice is rice waste that is no longer suitable for public consumption, however, the high starch content of aking rice can be used as a raw material for making biodegradable plastics. Good biodegradable plastic made from cassava starch and rice flour, to increase its elasticity and extensibility it is necessary to add chitosan additives and glycerol plasticizers. This study aims to determine the optimum conditions for the composition of glycerol and chitosan for the physical properties of biodegradable plastics made from aking rice and tapioca starch. Biodegradable plastics in this study were made with 3 grams of aking rice flour and 7 grams of tapioka flour with the addition of variations in the composition of chitosan (3 grams, 5 grams, and 7 grams) and the addition of variations in the composition of glycerol (2 ml, 4 ml, 6 ml, and 8 ml). As a result, the highest tensile strength value at 7: 2 composition variation is 41.29 MPa, the highest elongation percentage at 3: 8 composition variation is 135.8%, the highest water resistance at 7: 8 composition variation is -206%, the highest percent water absorption and the fastest biodegradation process at a variation of the composition of 3: 2, namely 1603% and completely degraded on the 4th day.Keywords: aking rice, biodegradable plastic, chitosan, glycerol and tapioca starch.

Abstract

Sustainable development can lead to an increase in the amount of wastewater produced from industrial waste and household domestic wastewater which contains materials/substances that can endanger human life and disrupt environmental sustainability. The aim of this research is to determine the optimum concentration of domestic wastewater for growth of water jasmine and water hyacinth and to determine the effectiveness of the phytoremediation method using plants water jasmine (Echinodorus palaefolius) and water hyacinth (Eichornia crassipes) in reducing concentrations of BOD, COD and ammonia in domestic greywater wastewater. The stages of the research method began with sampling waste water, testing wastewater, acclimatization of plants, range finding test / phytoreactor test and continued with data analysis. The results of the test parameters of domestic greywater waste for 7 days obtained the final value of COD is 0.50 mg/L, BOD is 0 mg/L, and Ammonia is 0 mg/L. Based on the research results obtained the effectiveness of reducing COD concentrations by 99.65%; BOD of 100%; and 100% ammonia. This shows that the use of the phytoremediation method using water jasmine and water hyacinth is very effective in reducing the levels of BOD, COD and ammonia in domestic greywater wastewater and has met the quality standards for domestic wastewater.
