ABSTRACT:

Peat water can be utilized by people as a source of clean water. Quality of peat water can be improved by eliminating the various parameters likes the colour of peat, organic matter contents, pH and iron (Fe). The purpose of this study was to determine the ability and effect of Aluminium sulfate [Al2 (SO4)3.18H2O] in improving the peat water quality. Water samples were taken in the area of peat bog peat Kuala Tungkal in Jambi Province. Peat water into aluminium sulfate and then added a number of stirring and coagulations after being filtered, peat water parameters were measured using Ultra Violet and Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (AAS). The results showed that the addition 1gr L-l of aluminium sulfate lowered the colour of peat water to 33.59%, iron content to 53.8% and organic matters to 26.8%, while the pH and Total Dissolve Solid did not change significantl. Therefore it can be concluded that the treatment with single aluminium sulfate cannot able to improve water quality with optimal path.

Keywords: Aluminium sulfate, color, organic substances, iron (Fe), peat water
