Abstract

Abstract
Ceramic filters made of natural clay and zeolite were used to treat the efluent from laundry
industry in Palembang. The pretreatment process using silica and active carbon was applied
to the samples prior feed to the ceramic filter. Process variables studied were operating
time and the filters composition. Parameters analyzed were TDS (Total Dissolved Solid),
pH, EC (Electrical Conductivity), COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand), BOD (Biological
Oxygen Demand) and the concentration of LAS (Linear Alkylbenzene Sulphonate). The
results showed that ceramic filters combined with silica and activated carbon can reduce
the LAS concentration in detergent wastewater up-to 97%. Scanning Electron Microscope
(SEM) images shows that filter could be categorized as microfiltration filter with random
porous structures.
