Abstract
According to the Ministry of Environment and Forestry, 2017, domestic waste is the most significant contributor to pollution sources in the Citarum watershed (62.16%) and Bandung City (94.15%). To overcome the problem, planning for infrastructure development and improvement of the domestic sewage treatment system is necessary. One of the essential characteristic parameters, which is the subject of this study, is the pollutant load factor parameter in the city of Bandung. Compared to sewage pipelines, the domination of domestic wastewater treatment in Bandung is the On-site Sanitation System (OSS) (38.47%), and the most widely used type of OSS is a septic tank. For this reason, thirty fecal sludge samples were taken from two fecal disposal points in Bandung City, and the concentrations of TSS, COD, BOD, and Ammonia were then analyzed. Based on the results of the study, the range of fecal sludge pollutant load factor for TSS in Bandung City is 57.28 g / person/day – 1,064 g / person/day with an average value of 546.39 g / person/day, the range for total COD is 30.06 g / person/day – 294.99 g /person/day with an average of 294.99 g / person/day, the total BOD range is 14.05 g /person/day – 504.97 g / person/day with an average of 175.5 g / person/day, and ammonia range 1.61 g/person/day – 3.11 g/person/day with an average of 2.62 g/person/day. Based on fecal sludge data, the result can be considered a recommendation to re-determine the main domestic wastewater pollution indicator generation. The new suggestions can be used to design an adequate domestic wastewater treatment system, especially in Bandung. The pollutant load factors can also be used to estimate the pollution loading of wastewater generated by present and future populations. It is important in urban growth planning.
