PT Bibu Panji Sakti and PT Amanaid Sign MoU for North Bali Airport Wastewater Treatment Plant

amanaid — Fri, 29 Sep 2023 14:19:16 +0000

The MoU between PT Bibu Panji Sakti and PT Amanaid took place, reaching an agreement on the North Bali International Airport development program plan, related to the opportunity for cooperation in wastewater management installations, in Kuta, Badung Regency, Wednesday (27/9/2023).

The cooperation agreement was marked by the signing of the MoU between PT Bibu Panji Sakti, which in this case was represented by the President Director, Erwanto Sad Adiatmoko, and from PT Amanaid which was represented by the Director of PT Amanaid, I Gusti Ngurah Bagus Chandra Buana, accompanied by the Founder of Amanaid, A A Ngr. Panji Astika, and the Main Commissioner, Mas Dewi Rahmayani.

PT Bibu Panji Sakti is a national private company that acts as the initiator of the North Bali International Airport development project offshore in the Kubutambahan area, Buleleng Regency, Bali Province. Integrated between the airport, aerocity, and aerotropolis, with a three-friendly concept, namely technology-friendly, environmentally friendly, and culturally friendly.

Meanwhile, PT Amanaid is a national private company engaged in and experienced in the design, fabrication, and construction of wastewater treatment plants (IPAL). This company has worked on government and private projects, such as hospitals, hotels, resort and villa areas, airports, and others.

The Parties plan to cooperate, by utilizing the capabilities, facilities, services, and potential owned by the parties.

“North Bali International Airport will be built offshore Kubutambahan Beach, which is planned to consist of two runways, with a runway length of 3.5 kilometers. So, it will be the airport with the longest runway in Indonesia,” said Panji Astika.

The construction of this airport is expected to balance the development gap between North Bali and South Bali. In addition, it can also reduce congestion and over capacity which are likely to occur in the next few years at Ngurah Rai Airport.

“The most important thing is of course to open thousands of jobs, by building MSMEs as the main foundation of Bali’s economic resilience, especially in North and East Bali. The economic impact of this development will not only be enjoyed by the people of Buleleng, but will also be an economic stimulus for Karangasem, Klungkung, and Bangli Regencies,” he said.

On the other hand, PT Amanaid as a wastewater treatment company in Bali, which has been tested for almost 23 years has built many liquid waste treatment systems for hospitals, hotels, clinics, office villas, and even airports throughout Indonesia.

“As one of the original companies in Bali, and perhaps the only IPAL Putra Bali company, which is currently registered with the Ministry of Environment and the government e-catalog, of course we are very grateful to be given the trust to be able to take a big role in development in Bali,” he said.

From this MoU, it is hoped that it can become a work contract, according to the capacity and needs that arise after this project is running.

“For that, we express our gratitude for the trust from PT Bibu Panji Sakti, especially the President Director, Mr. Erwanto Sad Adiatmoko, for their support and trust in us, the sons of the region,” said the Director of PT Amanaid, Ngurah Bagus.

Wealth from waste – three ways pollution can be turned into something useful

amanaid — Mon, 18 May 2020 02:07:25 +0000

Solving environmental problems usually just means cleaning up the mess people have made. But scientists are increasingly interested in creating something valuable from pollution. “One man’s trash is another man’s treasure”, as they say, and researchers have now demonstrated several ways that useful products can be obtained from waste in industry and agriculture while also remediating contaminated soil, water and air.

Air pollution

One environmental problem scientists are urgently trying to solve is the problem of carbon dioxide emissions which cause climate change. Researchers are developing processes which can capture carbon dioxide and convert it into useful chemicals like methanol – which can be used for fuel cells – or urea, which is used as a solvent in the chemical industry, in nitrogen fertiliser and in lactic acid, which can be used as a food preservative. Carbon dioxide can also be captured and used to help grow algae, which are then harvested for biofuel.

Water pollution

Wastewater – what we all flush away from our homes, offices and elsewhere – contains toxins and organic pollutants that treatment facilities remove before they can reach natural water systems like rivers and the ocean. However, researchers are trying to recover and turn this organic matter into something useful. Phosphorus and nitrogen are essential soil nutrients that are found in wastewater which could be returned to farm fields as fertilisers.

Researchers have also taught microorganisms to break down toxic organic contaminants which are found in wastewater and generate electricity from them. As well as cleaning the water, microbial fuel cells would turn wastewater treatment facilities into giant batteries for green energy as electrochemically active bacteria degrade organic substances and release electrons to generate an electric current

Soil pollution

Soil contamination with heavy metals is particularly tricky to solve. Usually, the only solution is to dig out the contaminated soil and dispose of it at a landfill site. Even then, contaminants can leach out of the soil and into underground water reservoirs, potentially ending up in plants and food crops, which soak up the water during growth. An alternative method involves a combination of phytoremediation and biorefinery.

Biorefinery means processing biomass – such as food waste and the plant remains from agriculture – to produce valuable commodities. Phytoremediation cleans up environmental pollution using plants to extract metals from the contaminated soil in the same way a white rose would absorb red food colouring from dyed water and grow red petals.

Chinese brake fern (Pteris vittata) can accumulate arsenic as it grows and could be used to clean up areas contaminated with arsenic, such as land surrounding former mines in Cornwall and Devon. Phytoremediation can help recover rare earth elements and precious metals from the world’s most polluted places like Guiyu town in China, which became heavily contaminated from electrical waste disposal.

By harvesting the plants with metal deposits stored in their cells, the toxic metals can be removed from the environment. The plant biomass can then be processed to recover metals for use in producing energy, fuel or industrial chemicals, making the whole process pay for itself.

Environmental engineers are using their imagination to clean up the environment and generate wealth from waste at the same time. As our environmental woes intensify, we’ll need even more creative thinking.

How to make your Water Safe for Drinking

amanaid — Tue, 28 Apr 2020 10:48:00 +0000

When you go on an outdoor adventure, it is possible to experience a depletion of your water supply. Or probably due to some circumstances you were forced to stay outdoors longer than what you intended. Nowadays, it becomes easier to purify water. There are easy and simple ways how you can purify water that you will find along trails like the Navajo Loop and others to make it suitable for drinking purposes. You can purify water by treating it with a chemical; either chlorine or iodine. You can also use filtration or ultraviolet light. Another simple way is to boil the water. All of these methods are effective provided they are done properly. Anyway, you only need to choose one method that you are more comfortable with.

When you have consumed all your water supply and you have not yet reached your target destination, you could be dehydrated and would cause further delay in reaching your destination. Dehydration can be prevented. Sometimes, you could have even ignored or neglected the fact that you could get dehydrated. When you are dehydrated, you will experience dizziness, dry lips, headaches and at times, you become nauseous. Dehydration can lead to more severe conditions like heat stroke or heat exhaustion. This is something that you should not ignore because it could be life threatening.

You need to be observant of your trail so you know where to find watering holes just in case you run out of water supply. Water in these areas are not safe for human consumption. Thus, there is a need to purify the water to make it suitable for drinking. The following are the common methods of water purification.

Boiling

This is a reliable way to purify water. However, boiling uses fuel and could take a while. Moreover, on summer days, it is not actually appealing to drink hot water. Furthermore, you will need to filter the water to remove all solid particles especially if the water was taken from a doubtful; water source.

Use of Iodine solution, tablets or crystals

This is an effective and more convenient method. It is also available in different forms you will surely find one that would suit your budget. It has the ability to kill viruses and bacteria. They are lightweight and easy to use. However, it takes about thirty minutes before you can drink the treated water. It is also not suitable for pregnant women. In addition, it has an aftertaste that you might not like. Once you drop the tablet into the water container, shake the container and hold the bottle upside down and have the lid slightly unscrewed to let the iodine to flow into the threads of the bottle cap.

Use chlorine drops

Chlorine has the ability to kill bacteria in water. It is also lightweight, affordable, and easily accessible. You need to wait for thirty minutes before you can drink the treated water. You need to make sure not to put so many drops as it could also be poisonous if used too much.

Use water filter

Water filters can remove bacteria in water. Carbon on the other hand gets rid of the chemicals and awful tastes while iodine coated screens can further remove viruses. Treated water can be consumed after the treatment and the water has no bad taste. However, they are heavier than iodine or chlorine, more costly and needs manual pumping. Also, you will need to clean the filters after the activity and at some point; you will need to replace them after treating several gallons of water.

Use Ultraviolet Light

This looks similar to a small flashlight. You just swish it around in the water for a few minutes and the bacteria can already be killed. This is very easy to carry with you and so easy to use. However, you will need batteries to operate it and batteries could run out. Moreover, the solid particles in the water are not filtered.

How Does a Waste Water Treatment Plant Work?

amanaid — Wed, 26 Oct 2016 10:31:27 +0000

A waste water treatment plant cleans sewage and water so that they can be returned to the environment. These plants remove solids and pollutants, break down organic matter and restore the oxygen content of treated water. They achieve these results through four sets of operations: preliminary, primary, secondary and sludge treatments. Normally, a network of sewers connected to homes, commercial buildings, schools and street grates delivers waste water and solids to a treatment plant’s collection tanks and basins in a never-ending flow.

Pretreatment Phase

Waste water plants remove the ‘easy pickings’ during the pretreatment phase. A set of bar screens rakes away large items such as tree limbs, garbage, leaves, cans, rags, plastic bottles, diapers and other waste materials. In many plants, equalization basins and grit chambers of various types regulate the rate of water inflow so that stones, sand and glass settle out. The basins hold sewage until it is ready for treatment and handle overflows due to heavy rains. Some plants skim grease and fats off the surface of the water during pretreatment, sometimes using air blowers to whip the oily material into a froth for easier removal. Other plants remove grease during primary treatment.

Primary Treatment

After pretreatment, the waste water collects in primary clarifiers, which are large basins and sedimentation tanks. Gravity allows smaller particles to settle out. Mechanically driven scrapers collect solid matter and direct it to hoppers connected to the sludge treatment equipment. If the plant didn’t remove grease and oil during pretreatment, it does so in this phase using surface skimmers. Some plants use equipment to saponify collected fats by mixing them with lye, thereby producing soaps and glycerol.

Secondary Treatment

In the next phase, plants aerate and agitate the waste water in secondary basins, adding beneficial microorganisms to break down organic matter into sludge. Plants employ a number of alternative strategies to break down sludge. For example, plants can culture a mass of microbes and pass the waste material over the biofilm. Other plants mix the biomass with waste material, creating activated sludge that can be recycled for reuse. The resulting biological floc removes carbon and nitrogen from organic wastes. Oxidation can occur on the surface—in lagoons—or in filter beds containing coked coal and limestone. Some facilities construct wetlands and reed beds that decompose organic materials. Other technologies used include membrane bioreactors and biological aerated filters. The resulting waste water collects and settles in a secondary clarifier tank.

Sludge Treatment

The final phase is to treat the remaining water and biosolids, or sludge. Gravity separates organic waste from heavier grit, which can be deposited in a landfill. The remaining primary sludge passes to a thickener, where it is centrifuged and fed to digesting tanks containing anaerobic bacteria. These tanks produce methane that can be used to power the plant. The final solid product, stabilized sludge, can be partially deodorized and plowed into soil as fertilizer. The remaining waste water is treated to remove phosphorus, nitrogen and other nutrients, disinfected with chlorine, ozone or ultraviolet light and then returned to the water supply. All discharge from and equipment used by waste water treatment plants must meet U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standards.

Top 7 Methods of Water Treatment

amanaid — Wed, 22 Jul 2015 09:51:48 +0000

By nature, water is known to be pure as it is composed of strongly bonded atoms of hydrogen and oxygen. However, the water supply across the globe has to share space with other things such as organic materials, minerals, chemicals and manmade pollutants. This brings about an undrinkable solution, since it can contain deadly bacteria and viruses, among other disease-causing agents. Luckily, mankind was able to develop different water treatment methods to allow our water supply to be safe to drink. While there are some methods that are not effective on a larger scale, all of them make untreated water potable for human consumption.

The process of treating water may have slight differences at various locations, based on the plant’s technology as well as the type of water that needs to be treated. Nevertheless, the basic principals are the same. The following section talks about the standard processes of water treatment.

Coagulation / Flocculation

Coagulation is adding liquid aluminum sulfate or alum and/or polymer to raw or untreated water. The resulting mixture causes the dirt particles in the water to coagulate or stick together. Then, the groups of dirt particles attach together, forming larger particles named flocs that can easily be removed via filtration or settling.

Sedimentation

When water and flocs undergo the treatment process, they go into sedimentation basins. Here, water moves slowly, making the heavy floc particles settle to the bottom. Floc that accumulates on the bottom is known as sludge. This is carried on to drying lagoons. Direct Filtration does not include the sedimentation step and the floc is just removed by filtration.

Filtration

In filtration, water passes through a filter, which is made to take away particles from the water. Such filters are composed of gravel and sand or sometimes crushed anthracite. Filtration gathers together impurities that float on water and boosts the effectiveness of disinfection. Filters are regularly cleaned by means of backwashing.

Disinfection

Before water goes into the distribution system, it is disinfected to get rid of disease-causing bacteria, parasites and viruses. Chlorine is also applied since it is very effective.

Sludge Drying

Solids that have been gathered and removed from water via sedimentation and filtration are transferred to drying lagoons.

Fluoridation

Fluoridation treats water supplies of communities to adjust the concentration of free fluoride ions to an optimal level so that dental cavities can be reduced. It is compulsory for Hunter Water to perform water fluoridation to conform to the NSW Fluoridation of Public Water Supplies Act 1957.

pH Correction

To adjust pH levels, lime is combined with filtered water. This, also, stabilizes naturally soft water so corrosion can be minimized in the water distribution system and plumbing of customers.
