Wastewater discharged by Batik’s industry still contains a high concentration of dyes and pollutants, thus can contaminate the water’s ecosystem. Because of that, in this study, Batik wastewater was treated by the hydrodynamic cavitation, ozonation, and combination of those two. By using PAC, a coagulation-flocculation-based pretreatment technic was conducted first to increase the effectiveness of the main wastewater treatment process. Then, variations in flow rate (2 L/min, 4 L/min, and 6 L/min) and initial pH of wastewater (4, 7, and 10) were evaluated to analyze its effect on the pH changing and the degradation of TSS, COD, color (Pt-Co), and TOC. The best result obtained from this research was by the application of the combination technic, which can eliminate 95.19%; 78.85%; 96.42%; and 60.56% of TSS, COD, color (Pt-Co), and TOC, respectively after 60 minutes treatment.
