Reduce Oil in Domestic Wastewater Using Durio Zibethinus and Oryza Sativa
Abstract
Waste cooking oil is a significant contributor to water pollution, originating from both domestic and industrial food preparation. This study aims to develop an oil trap and evaluate the effectiveness of durio zibethinus (durian) and oryza sativa (rice husk) as filtration media. These oil traps are engineered to separate and capture waste fats, oils, grease, and solids before they enter the wastewater system. The traps are installed at the terminal points of pipelines draining water from kitchen sinks. The study assesses the performance of the oil traps using specific parameters and the characterization of durio zibethinus and oryza sativa. The effectiveness of the oil trap is measured through various parameters, including physical properties like turbidity and chemical properties such as pH and oil and grease content. The study concludes with the successful development of an oil trap that has the potential to mitigate water pollution caused by oil waste.
