Iron (Fe) bio-concentration in purun tikus (Eleocharis dulcis) planted on the constructed wetland treating the coal acid mine drainage
Abstract
Acid mine drainage (AMD) is a wastewater from coal mining activities. The constructed wetland (CW) is one of the passive treatment technologies used in treating the AMD. This study used Vertical Subsurface Constructed Wetland (VSSF-CW) with Puruntikus (Eleocharis dulcis). E. dulcis is one of the natural plants in the sulphate acid swamp in South Kalimantan. E.dulcisis the potential bio filter, because it can grow and adapt well to the acidic growth media. The VSSF-CW is the engineered system designed using subsurface flow and is made by utilizing the natural processes; include wetland plant, soil, and a population of wetland microbe in treating wastewater. This study is intended to determine the ability Purun tikus planted in the Constructed Wetland in concentrateIron (Fe) from the coal acid mine water in its tissues. This research was carried out with two (2) kinds of media, the first VSSF-CW using mixed media of acid sulfate soil and manure; the second VSSF -CW using mixed media of acid sulfate soil and compost. The results showed that VSSF-CW with two kinds of media is capable of lowering the concentration of Fe effluent, respectively amounted to 98.26% and 91.17%. Bio concentration factor values (BCF) of Fe in Purun tikus (Eleocharis dulcis) that planted on VSSF-CW showed that E. dulcis is a Fe accumulator plant.
