Abstract

Wastewater is liquid or filth containing hazardous materials that can endanger human life and other living beings, and also destructive the environment. This research aim to analyze the differences in physical parameters (Temperature and TSS), chemical (pH, BOD, N03-N, TF-P, oil and fat), and biology (E. Coli) before and after treatment. The research design is observational analytic throught cross-sectional approach. The object used is domestic wastewater before and after treatment in WWTP Basirih Banjarmasin of year 2015. This research use paired T-test and Wilcoxon test. The results in WWTP Basirih showed that average value before and after treatment in TSS (p-value=0.079), pH (p-value=0.034), N03-N (p-value=O.071), TF-P (p-value=0.067), oil and fat (p-value=0.028), E. Coli (p-value=0.002), temperature (p-value=0.059) and BOD (p-value=0.227). There is a difference before and after treatment in pH, oil and fat and E. Coli. Whereas there was no difference in temperature, TSS, N03-N, TF-P, and BOD.
