• This study focuses on the the characterization of influent and effluent

sample from the different process of the existing poultry slaughterhouse
plant.

• The characteristics to be determined are total suspended solids (TSS),

chemical oxygen demand (COD), and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD)

• The effluent from the slaughterhouse wastewater treatment plant will be

compared with the Standard of Industrial Effluent (2009).

Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF)

1. DAF is a clarification process that can be used to remove particles in
membrane plants or in conventional type plants using granular media filtration
2. The DAF system has been widely applied in the primary treatment of food
industry wastewater to separate suspended or fatty particles from the liquid.

3. The advantages of using chemical DAF system are

• high operational flexibility
• high separation efficiency
• high-rate units

4. The instability of DAF system performance is attributed to the variability of the

industrial effluent quality characteristics, the inadequacy of the chemical
additions, and the full-influent pressurization in the DAF system (Del Nery et al.
2007).
Sequencing Batch Reactor (SBR)
• J.P. Li et al., (2008) stated that SBR is recommended by The European
Commision to be amongst the best available techniques (BATs) for
slaughterhouse wastewater treatment since it potentially can remove organic
carbon, nutrients and SS from wastewater as well as having a low capital and
operational costs

• Usually, every reactor in an SBR system will undergoes one or more cycles per
day. A typical cycle consists of five periods that are namely as fill, react, settle,
decant and idle period.

• According to I.R. de Nardi et al., (2010), effluents with high ammonia and low
organic matter concentration will enable the use of biological nitrogen removal
process. Hence, SBR technology can treat these effluents under fill-aerobic-
anoxic-settle-discharge sequences in a single reactor basin
