Abstract
After harvesting, Alfalfa plant was washed, dried and ground to get fine powder used in treatment water. We used alfalfa plant with ethanol to made alcoholic extract and characterized it applying (GC-Mass, FTIR, UV) spectroscopy to determine active compounds. Alcoholic extract was used to prepare zinc nanoparticle. We characterized Zinc nanoparticles by using FTIR, UV, SEM, EDX Zeta potential and AFM. Zinc nanoparticle with Alfalfa extract and alfalfa powder was used to treat pollutant water with pesticides and negative ions by two methods, namely Batch and continuous processing. Batch process was used two times firstly, with Alfalfa plant to treat water affected by pesticides and negative ions, after 1h pesticides (glyphosate 44.76%, sulfon 49.21%) Negative ions (NO3 33.8%, NO2 46.8%, 17.2%) and when left it 5h to get treated off pesticides (glyphosate 64.52%, sulfon 69.38%), Negative ions (NO3 71%, NO2 80%, SO4 70%). Secondly, we used with Zinc nanoparticles to treat water after 1h pesticides (glyphosate 71.45%, sulfon 52.6%) Negative ions (NO3 72.13%, NO2 14.50% SO4 78.30%) and when left 5h (glyphosate 81.26% sulfon 60.11%) Negative ions (NO3 79.55%, NO2 32.45%, SO4 86.80%), followed by continuous processing flowrate pertaining to pesticides (glyphosate 57.44%, sulfon 59.50%), Negative ions (NO3 32.24%, NO2 6.28%, SO4 65.57%). Zinc nanoparticles were treated in continuous process at concentration 10 ppm only for pesticides for 1h to get treated (glyphosate 77.22%, sulfon 100%) and concentration 50 ppm for treating pesticides (glyphosate 64.52%, sulfon 69.38%), Negative ions (75.41%, 18.69%, 90.70%). Comparing the two process, we found the continuous one more efficient than batch process. Further, comparing alfalfa powder and zinc nanoparticle, we found treatment with zinc nanoparticle more efficient and most removal for organic and inorganic pollutant.
