Abstract

The Kalilo River in Banyuwangi plays a vital role in supporting ecosystems and community
activities but faces ecological pressures due to human activities. This study aims to analyze the
Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) levels at the upstream and downstream sections of the
Kalilo River and their impact on the ecosystem. The research was conducted in December 2024
using standard BOD testing methods through a quantitative and qualitative approach. Water
samples were collected from Grogol Village (upstream) and Kampung Ujung Neighborhood
(downstream) and tested at the Environmental Laboratory of Banyuwangi Environmental
Agency. Results showed that BOD levels were 0.32 mg/L upstream and 1.33 mg/L downstream.
Although both sites met the class II water quality standards (≤ 3 mg/L) according to
Government Regulation No. 22 of 2021, the higher BOD level downstream indicated organic
pollution from domestic activities. The ecological impact includes reduced dissolved oxygen
levels, potentially disrupting aquatic life. This study highlights the importance of waste
management and continuous water quality monitoring to ensure the sustainability of the Kalilo
River ecosystem.
