Abstract
The trend of world demand for poultry meat increasing by 6% could trigger an increase in the number of poultry slaughterhouses. However, there are by-products from the poultry farming process, namely solid waste and liquid waste originating from feces, residue from slaughtering activities such as poultry in-nards and blood which can enter water bodies around the poultry slaughtering ar-ea. Waste produced from poultry slaughtering activities generally consists of or-ganic waste such as protein, blood and fat. This organic waste can cause eutroph-ication which affects the balance of the water ecosystem and can cause infections in the surrounding community. In this research, data was collected using survey methods at two locations, namely poultry slaughter-houses in Sungai Besar and Landasan Ulin. Metal content test results in Sungai Besar poultry slaughterhouses showed that metal levels were still below the permitted limits. Based on the research re-sults, it can be concluded that poultry slaughterhouse waste in Banjarbaru has the potential for environmental pollution, which is identified from the levels of heavy metals, TSS, BOD and COD that exceed the permitted limits of government regulations. Therefore, it can be concluded as well that liquid waste processing of poultry slaughterhouse waste in Banjarbaru is necessary before disposing into the environment in order it does not exceed the permitted contamination threshold.
