INFOKU, BLORA – The Blora Regency Environmental Service (DLH) has revealed facts regarding the polemic surrounding the wastewater treatment plant (IPAL) at the Blora Special Nutrition Fulfillment Service Unit (SPPG).
The findings were obtained after the Blora DLH Technical Policy Sub-Reviewer, Febrianto, conducted a direct review of the Special SPPG location in the Kridosono area, Blora, from April to May.
As a result, both the existing IPAL and grease traps were deemed not to meet applicable waste processing standards.
"The IPAL or grease trap definitely doesn't meet the requirements. There are recommendations," he told the press.
According to him, a wastewater treatment plant does not have to use manufactured products.
However, the system built must be able to process waste, in accordance with the provisions of the Ministry of Environment, to produce wastewater that meets quality standards.
"The wastewater treatment plant doesn't have to be manufactured. What's important is that the tanks comply with regulations and the processed products meet requirements," he said.

Febrianto explained that the IPAL can be made in various models, including being buried in the ground.
However, the existence of installations alone is not enough if the waste processing process does not run according to standards.
"IPAL (wastewater treatment plant) is allowed, and second-level is also allowed. The important thing is that it can process wastewater and the results meet the requirements," he said.
He explained that kitchen waste should first pass through a grease trap to separate oil and fat before entering the wastewater treatment plant.
After processing, the processed water must be clean, odorless, and safe to be discharged into drainage.
His party has issued a warning and written recommendations to the relevant parties to immediately make improvements.
"It doesn't meet the requirements. We've been warned. The recommendation has also been written," he stressed. (Endah/ IST )
