Abstract

The pulp and paper industry processes waste water through Integrated Waste Water Treatment Plants (IPAL) by utilizing Waste Water Treatment Plants (IPAL) to process liquid waste before being discharged into river basins (DAS). Wastewater treatment technology in industrial environments can be applied using biological, chemical, or physical methods, depending on the characteristics of the waste. This research focuses on wastewater treatment in the pulp and paper industry using an off-site system with a filtration model. Water quality is evaluated using the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) parameter, which shows the amount of oxygen needed to decompose organic matter that pollutes river areas (DAS). BOD calculations in river basin systems are carried out by designing a simulation model using a waterfall flow system and volume control. The verification results show that in general the concentration of pollutants at the 24 watershed sampling points in the simulation model is always lower than the actual measurements. The simulation model design produces a BOD value of 11.648 μg/m³, while the actual measurement is 16.56 μg/m³. Similarly, the SO₂ concentration was 6.17 μg/m³ based on the simulation model, compared to 16.12 μg/m³ in the actual measurements.
