Abstract

Doing laundry and other household appliances is one of businesses that ease the burden on society in terms of domesticity. Urban communities, especially those having activities outside home prefers to take advantages of laundry services. The appearance of the laundry business is to provide the advantages and the solutions on household work as well as new jobs for people in the surrounding area. But advantages gained are inversely proportional to the quality of resulting environment. The proliferation of laundry services will worsen the quality of the surrounding water because this business is not equipped with waste treatment processes but is discharged directly into sewers or water bodies nearby. As a result of laundry waste discharged into water bodies continuously without being processed, it may cause water pollution problems. The result of research that gained in the implementation of waste management obligations by some laundry business in Bengkulu city as meticulous in environmental pollution control measures, has not done well and the lack of awareness and knowledge about the dangers of toxic waste generated laundry business and the lack of government attention to the laundry business growth impact in Bengkulu City.
