(Source: Tasikmalaya Drinking
Water System Master Plan, 2013)
Tasikmalaya City is one of the cities in West
Java that still lack of drinking water services. The
drinking water supply system in Tasikmalaya City
is still served by PDAM Tirta Sukapura owned by
Tasikmalaya Regency with service level of 23.94%
because Tasikmalaya City does not yet have a
drinking water treatment plant (WTP). To ensure
the future level of Tasikmalaya City drinking water
services, the Regional Development Planning
Agency (BAPPEDA) and the Office of Public
Housing and Settlement Area (DPRKP) of
Tasikmalaya City plan to develop WTP with raw
water source from Ciwulan River, therefore called
Ciwulan WTP. The Ciwulan WTP service area
covers five districts in Tasikmalaya City, they are
Kawalu, Tamansari, Mangkubumi, Cihideung, and
Tawang. The planning area can be seen in Figure 1
which is marked with a thick black line
(Tasikmalaya Drinking Water System Master Plan,
2013).
BASE PLAN
Planning Period
The planning period will be done in 20 years
by dividing into two phases, phase I in 2019-2029
and phase II in 2029-2039.
Population Projection
Population projections are carried out to select
the population projection method and the number
of appropriate facilities until the end of the
planning period. In this planning, the suitable
population projection method is linear method with
correlation factor 0.958998 and standard deviation
3523.9529.
Drinking Water Needs
After projection of population and public
facilities, projection of drinking water needs to be
done until the end of the planning period, the
design flow rate for the development of WTP as
shown in Table 1. Based on Table 1, its known
that the final processing flow rate is 933,221 l/s
that divided into two phase of development year at
2019-2929 and 2029-2039 so its known that the
flow rate of each phase in WTP is 466,611 l/s
which is rounded to 467 l/s for easy planning.
Raw Water Quality
The result of raw water quality analysis
compared with standard water quality class I in PP
RI Number 82 Year 2001 and drinking water
quality standard at Permenkes Number 492 Year
2010 that can be seen in Table 2. Based on the
analysis result, it is known that some parameters
concentration exceed drinking water quality
standard that must be processed, they are turbidity,
iron (Fe), organic substances, total coliform, and
fecal coli. To know the efficiency of processing can
be seen in Table 3.
Intake and WTP Location
Intake location is located in Leuwiliang Sub-
district, Kawalu District with an altitude of 237.5
meters above sea level. While the location of WTP
is planned to be about 6 km from intake, that is in
Urug Sub-district, Kawalu District at elevation
362.6 mdpl.

DESIGN CONCEPTS
Selection of Drinking Water Treatment Units
Alternative selection of drinking water
treatment units can be determined using the JICA
Prediction Model. Based on JICA Prediction
Model, the alternative processing unit that can be
used to process raw water is shown in Table 4.
Based on the three treatment alternatives that can
be used, one of the best alternative that meets
technical and non technical aspects, such as high
efficiency, flexibility to receive high loading rate,
easy to operation and maintenance, cost
(investment, operation, and maintenance) are
relatively cheap, and the required land is small.
Comparison of these aspects can be seen in Table
5.
Table 4. Alternative process
Table 5. Technical and non technical analysis
CONCLUSION
Based on the technical and non technical
aspects, the selected alternatives are the 1st
Treatment Alternative, they are bar screen,
tranquilizer, pre-chlorination, pre-sedimentation,
rapid sand filter, disinfection, neutralization,
reservoir and sludge drying beds. The tranquilizer
tank is selected first before the pre-sedimentation
tank aims to decrease the flow turbulence so that
the flow into the pre-sedimentation tank becomes
the laminar flow. Pre sedimentation tank is planned
to be in WTP location to facilitate operational and
maintenance.
