Hospital is refferal health effort tha produce waste water in form of liquid, solid,
and gas. Approximately 10-25% of waste originaly from hospital hazardous waste
to cause health problems, and environment, in hospital envoronment. One of
parameters that are harmful to heath and the environtment is ammonia. The
research objective of this study was to determine differene in the level of
effectvrness jeringau and eceng gondok in reduced concentration ammonia in
islam Hospital Samarinda Wastewater.
This study used analytic Quasi Experimental method to search more effective
plant between jeringau and eceng gondok. Sampless was taken from Islam
Hospital wastewater and looping conducted to obtain comparative results. The
Analysis used univariate and bivariate tests with different test significance level
of 95%
The measurement results show eceng gondok is effective in reducing amonia
dendity 50% (6 individuals) (asymp. Sig = 0.049) and density 75%(8 individuals)
(asymp. Sig = 0.041) and then jeringau is effective in reducing amonia dendity
50% (6 individuals) (asymp. Sig = 0.039) and density 75% (8 individuals) (asymp.
Sig = 0.032) so that the two media are effective in reducing the concentration of
amonia contained in the Islam Hospital wastewater.
To maximize the decline of ammonia , to conducted research by increase
contact time and to cultivated Acorus calamus and Eichornia crassipes that can
be used in reduced amonia than for industrial/ hospital can be in household level
