Abstract

The increasing number of companies and the number of batik productions in the Ngawi regionis directly proportional to the amount of wastewater produced and thus poses a burden on the environment asthe overflow of wastewater is absorbed from the production process. The results of the laboratory analysesshowed that the values for TSS, color, COD, BOD, total ammonia, oil, and grease exceeded the qualitystandards. Prevention of pollution from wastewater is done through community empowerment.Communityempowerment aims to realize the development of Appropriate Technology for Wastewater Treatment Plants(WWTP) andtheprevention of Wastewater Pollution to the Environment Around Small and MediumEnterprises (UKM) Griya Batik Widi Nugraha, Ngawi Regency. The benefit of community empowerment isto provide experience for other Batik Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) development programs.Community empowerment at UKM Griya Batik Widi Nugraha Ngawi uses methods of document collection,site surveys, preparation of processing systems, training, and demonstrations. The target group of communityempowerment activities at Griya Batik Widi Nugraha Ngawi are the owner of Griya Batik Widi NugrahaNgawi, batik workers at Griya Batik Widi Nugraha Ngaw, workers in the dyeing and washing process,administrators of Ngawi Batik Association and construction workers. Results of Community Empowermentof UKM Griya Batik Widi Nugraha Workers and Surroundings Together with the academic community ofPoltekkes Kemenkes Surabaya, appropriate technology was built for a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP)with a capacity of 1,464.5 liters per day, which is still safefor UKM Griya Batik Widi Nugraha NgawiRegency. The stages of wastewater treatment are pre-treatment, secondary treatment, tertiary treatment, andstorage of the final product. The results of the functional tests based on effluent samples from the finaltreatment showed that the treatment plant was able to reduce the levels of TSS, color, COD, BOD, totalammonia, oil, and grease that exceeded the quality standard to meet the quality requirements as per theMinister of Environment and Forestry Regulation No. P.16/MENLAHK /SETJEN/KUM.1/2019.Theseresults provide benefits for UKM Griya Batik Widi Nugraha to prevent pollution and can use treated wateras a source of fish pond water and watering the garden.It is recommended that community empowermentcan be continued by other SMEs that have the potential to dispose of wastewater from production activitiesand pollute the environment through the use of appropriate technology (TTG) research results by lecturers orstudents so that they do not stop as intakes.
