Abstract

Water is one of the natural resources that has a very important function. The existence of clean water in an area is very important, including in the school area. To support the availability of clean water in the school area at Yayasan Perguruan Serasan Muara Enim (YPS), namely by utilizing rainwater reservoirs, in addition to PDAM. However, the provision of clean water has not been able to meet water needs because the source of PDAM pipes is far away, and the distribution network pipes are not yet available. This often causes schools that are the furthest away not to get water flow so that they often must buy clean water which results in high school operational costs. There is one well to anticipate water needs, but the condition of the well water is cloudy yellowish and slightly smelly so it needs to be clarified first so that it can be used. The installation of a simple water purification device needs to be designed so that the water is suitable for use before being collected and distributed. The method used is to create a series of simple water purification devices consisting of an arrangement of adsorbents in the form of activated charcoal, sand, gravel, coral stone, and coconut fiber arranged in a tank. The result of this community service activity, the provision of clean water for school activities can be met, so that the academic community can enjoy clean water more easily and cheaper than before with better quality, quantity and continuity. The results of the analysis of well water after being clarified showed a reduction in the levels of Total Suspended Solid (TSS) which caused turbidity, with clean water quality that has met the requirements.
