Abstract

The degree of understanding about sanitation in Malang is very low which is only 4% of the total population in Malang. This article aims to explain the implementation of the societal plan in Kebalen Wetan, Malang on how to create a prototype of decentralised wastewater treatment (DWT) including the systems related to it and to increase the understanding about sanitation. This project was implemented in Kampung Kebalen Wetan, Malang by collaborating with youth association in the targeted community. The collecting data used in this project are field observation, questionnaire for 30 respondents from the targeted population, and the laboratory test for treated wastewater quality (pH and BOD). Following the stages of the process, the first is the screening stage, the process of removing odors, then the process of removing heavy metals contained in waste water and the existing sediment deposits will be processed automatically into fertilizer. Laboratory analysis showed the average pH at the inlet and outlet was 4.6 and 7.55, respectively. The BOD removal efficiency is 64% where DWT produces 1L of liquid compost in one week. The positive impact of this project is that it can increase public awareness of their understanding of sanitation behavior, the application of DWT, and can increase community insights on composting and e-commerce. Analysis of the results of the questionnaire was 100%, 93.33%, 100%, and 93.33% respectively for each indicator.
