Abstract

Language:

Wastewater from gold treatment by amalgamation has a high TSS value and heavy metal content in the form of Cu and Hg. This content can endanger the surrounding environment. Therefore, wastewater must be treated until it shows results below the permitted quality standards. Wastewater treatment is carried out using the batch reactor electrocoagulation method. The purpose of this study was to determine the efficiency value and optimal conditions by reducing the TSS, Cu, and Hg content in wastewater based on the effect of time (10 minutes) and voltage (4.5 volts, 6 volts, and 7.5 volts). This calculation of the efficiency and analysis showed that the optimal conditions occurred at a voltage of 6 volts from the three parameters, there are TSS = 97.49%, Cu = 95.71%, and Hg = 98.95%. Based on the test results after treatment, the wastewater still needs to be treated until it is below the safe quality standard according to Government Regulation of Indonesia Republic No. 82 of 2001 class 4.
