Abstract

Tanah terkontaminasi hidrokarbon membutuhkan remediasi karena sifat hidrokarbon yang sulit diuraikan dan bersifat toksik. Salah satu teknik bioremediasi untuk penyisihan hidrokarbon pada tanah tercemar adalah co-composting. Kompos dapat berperan sebagai sumber biobased surfactant. Compost humic acid-like (cHAL) yang memiliki sifat mirip surfaktan komersial dapat terbentuk selama proses co-composting. Tujuan penelitian ini yaitu: (a) menentukan karakteristik cHAL yang terbentuk selama proses co-composting tanah terkontaminasi crude oil, (b) menentukan kemampuan cHAL sebagai biobased surfactant dalam pemisahan hidrokarbon, serta (c) menentukan perbandingan cHAL dengan surfaktan komersial pada bioremediasi tanah tercemar crude oil.
Penelitian berskala laboratorium ini dilaksanakan dengan menggunakan 42 reaktor bervolume 3,5 L. Variasi yang digunakan adalah sumber dan konsentrasi surfaktan. Jenis sampah organik biodegradable yang digunakan yaitu sampah kebun dan sampah rumen dari Rumah Pemotongan Hewan. Rasio optimum tanah tercemar dan sampah organik biodegradable dari penelitian sebelumnya adalah 50:50 (b/b). Proses co-composting dilakukan secara aerobik dengan pengadukan manual setiap 3 hari sekali. Kemampuan emulsifikasi dan memisahkan hidrokarbon setiap isolat cHAL dibandingkan terhadap surfaktan komersial Tween 80. Kadar hidrokarbon, tegangan permukaan, kemampuan emulsifikasi, kandungan asam humat dan kemampuan pemisahan hidrokarbon diukur pada hari ke: 20, 40, dan 60. Kadar hidrokarbon diukur dengan metode ekstraksi soxhlet. Tegangan permukaan diukur dengan alat Tensiometer Du-Nouy, sedangkan kemampuan emulsifikasi diukur dengan alat vortex mixer. Kandungan asam humat ditentukan dengan metode ekstraksi asam basa. Kemampuan pemisahan hidrokarbon ditentukan dengan soil washing menggunakan metode agitasi. Penelitian dilakukan dengan 2 ulangan.
Kadar cHAL hasil komposting pada semua reaktor ada pada kisaran 0,372-1,117%. Penurunan tegangan permukaan berkisar 6,65-21,5 dyne/cm. Isolat cHAL dapat dikategorikan sebagai surfaktan, apabila dapat menurunkan tegangan permukaan lebih dari 10 dyne/cm. Aktivitas emulsi cHAL setelah 24 jam berada pada rentang 7,4–38,1%. Proses soil washing menggunakan cHAL menghasilkan pemisahan hidrokarbon sebesar 0,99–46,56%. Pemisahan hidrokarbon optimum oleh isolat cHAL sebesar 46,56%; 41,55%; 39,61%; 7,62%, masing-masing dicapai pada reaktor sampah kebun, campuran sampah dan tanah tercemar, sampah rumen, serta tanah tercemar (kontrol). Tween 80 mampu memisahkan 75,97% hidrokarbon pada kadar optimum 1,5%. Kemampuan pemisahan hidrokarbon optimum oleh isolat cHAL dari reaktor sampah kebun, sampah rumen, campuran tanah tercemar dan sampah, serta tanah tercemar (kontrol) masing-masing sebesar 0,60; 0,54; 0,51, dan 0,01 kali bila dibandingkan dengan Tween 80 pada kadar 1,5%. Kemampuan isolat cHAL dari reaktor sampah kebun, campuran tanah tercemar dan sampah, sampah rumen sapi serta tanah tercemar (kontrol) untuk memisahkan hidrokarbon masing-masing setara dengan kadar Tween 80 sebesar 0,98%; 0,87%, 0,83%, dan 0,106%. Dengan demikian dapat disimpulkan bahwa isolat cHAL yang terbentuk selama proses co-composting memiliki karakteristik dan potensi sebagai surfaktan.

Crude oil contaminated soil needs remediation, because
of the toxic and persistent characteristics of hydrocarbons. One of the bioremediation techniques for
hydrocarbon removal is co
-
composting. Compost can play a role as biobased
surfactant source. Compost humic acid like (cHAL) compounds,
which can be formed during the co-composting process, have similar characteristics to commercial surfactant
. The aims of this research were: (a)
to determine the characteristics of cHAL, which was form
during
the
co
-
composting process,
(b)
to determine cHAL’s
performance as a biobased surfactant in hydrocarbon
separa
tion,

(c)
to
determine the ratio between cHAL
and

the experiment. Yard waste

Hydrocarbon removal was measured using agitated soil washing method. The experiment was conducted in two replicates. The cHAL contents in the composting materials in all reactors were in a value range of 0.372–1.117%. The declining surface tension was in the range
of 6.65 – 21.5 dyne/cm.
The cHAL isolates could be classified as surfactant, if the declining surface tension was more than 10 dyne/cm. The emulsi fication
performance of cHAL after 24 hours was in the range 7.4
–38.1%. The soil washing using cHAL isolates resulted in
hydrocarbon separation
efficiency between
0.99 and 46.56%. The optimum
hydrocarbon separation by cHAL isolates from the
yard waste, rumen
waste, combined contaminated soil and biodegradable
waste, and contaminated soil
control reactors were 46.56; 41.55;
39.61 and 7.62% respectively. Tween 80 could separate 75.97% of hydrocarbon in an optimum concentration of 1.5%
. The optimum hydrocarbon separation abillity by cHAL isolates from the yard waste, rumen waste, combined contaminated soil and bio degradable waste, and contaminated soil control
reactors were
0.6
0
; 0.54; 0.5
0
; and 0.01
times
respectively
, when
compared to that of Tween 80 of 1.5%. The performance values of cHAL isolates to separate hydrocarbon in the yard waste, combined contaminated soil and biodegradable waste, rumen waste, and contaminated soil control reactors were equal to 0.98; 0.87; 0.83; and 0.106% of Tween 80 concentrations respectively. This research concluded that the cHAL isolates, which were produced during the co-composting process, showed characteristics and performance potential as surfactant.
