Pengaruh Penggunaan Karbon Aktif Ampas Tebu Terhadap Penurunan Salinitas Pada Sumur Gali Di RT 003 RW 006 Kelurahan Tanjung Unggat Kota Tanjungpinang Tahun 2017: Pengaruh Penggunaan Karbon Aktif Ampas Tebu Terhadap Penurunan Salinitas Pada Sumur Gali Di RT 003 RW 006 Kelurahan Tanjung Unggat Kota Tanjungpinang Tahun 2017

Abstract

Salinity levels of one dug well water in RT 003 RW 06 Kelurahan Tanjung Unggat Tanjungpinang exceeded the quality standard that is 2 so need do the processing of dug well water is one of them using activated carbon bagasse. The purpose of this study was to determine the rate reduction salinity dug wells in RT 003 RW 06 Kelurahan Tanjung Unggat Tanjungpinang after being treated with activated carbon bagasse. This research was experimental (experimental research), with the design of One Group Pretest Posttest results measurement performed before and after treatment. Data were analyzed using univariate and bivariate, then tested with One Way Anova statistic.    The results showed decreased levels of salinity using bagasse activated carbon with  dose variations  of 2 grams and a contact time of 30, 60, 90, 120 and 150 minutes with percentages respectively 11.5%, 26.5%, 61.5% , 76.5% and 91.5%.     From the research results can be concluded that there is the effect of adding activated carbon bagasse in reducing the salinity of the water wells in RT 003 RW 06 Kelurahan Tanjung Unggat Tanjungpinang 2017. Suggestions for further research to combine with aeration and filtration media to obtain results better.
