A Novel of Liquid Organic Fertilizer from Industrial Effluents on Hydroponic Systems

Abstract

Aspergillus sp. is a microscopic fungus that can properly degrade Industrial effluents such as batik dye effluents. The innovation of making liquid organic fertilizer (LOF) from degraded batik dye and tofu effluents can be a sustainable solution to overcoming environmental problems and advancing the agricultural sector, especially with regard to the use of organic fertilizer for agricultural crop productivity. Organic substances found in tofu effluents and degraded batik dye effluents have the potential to support organic fertilizer elements. The results of this study showed that the addition of LOF from degraded batik dye and tofu effluents on mung bean plants (Vigna radiata) affected the best growth response on plant height, wet weight, root length, and seed viability rate.
