Kajian Laju Infiltrasi Beberapa Jenis Cairan Pada Tanah Inceptisol

Abstract

MHD. NASIR HSB. Study of Infiltration Rates of several Types of Fluids in Inceptisol Soil, supervised by SUMONO. This study was conducted on Inceptisol soil using the Philip equation model to examine the characteristics of water infiltration into the soil. The observed parameters included soil texture, bulk density, particle density, total porosity, organic matter content, and soil moisture content. The infiltration rate was measured using a double ring infiltrometer over a 240-minute observation period, carried out in stages to obtain a more accurate representation of the infiltration behavior in Inceptisol soil. The results of this study indicate that the soil texture in this study is loamy sand, bulk density of 0,99 g/cm3, particle density of 2,20 g/cm3, porosity of 55%, soil organic matter of 1,724%, and soil water content of 10,58%, as well as the infiltration rate of pure water is fp = 0.218t-0,5, and salt water is fp = 0.117t- 0,5, and domestic wastewater is fp = 0.185t-0,5
