Pertumbuhan industri pabrik kelapa sawit masih cukup potensial di Indonesia, kajian produk samping hasil produksi pabrik kelapa sawit ini masih belum diolah dengan optimal. Pemanfaatan fly ash sebagai salah satu produk samping masih sangat perlu dikembangkan. Silika merupakan komposisi penyusun fly ash kelapa sawit yang sangat diminati saat ini karena memiliki potensi aplikasi dalam berbagai tujuan seperti pengolahan limbah, material semikonduktor, dan bahan aditif pertanian. Penelitian pengolahan silika dari abu hasil proses pembakaran tidak terlepas dari metode ektraksi yang sangat bergantung dari karakteristik kelarutan silika terhadap pelarutnya. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan informasi karakteritik kelarutan silika yang berasal dari fly ash pabrik kelapa sawit dalam larutan berupa basa kuat (NaOH) dan asam lemah (C6H8O7). Aktivitas kelarutan silika dalam pelarut asam dan basa dilakukan dengan memvariasikan konsentrasi pelarut yaitu 1 M, 2 M, dan 3 M. Proses pelarutan silika dilakukan pada temperatur 60oC dalam waktu 60 menit. Karaketrisasi fly ash dilakukan dengan menggunakan instrumen XRD, XRF, dan SEM yang menunjukkan bahwa senyawa penyusun utama fly ash adalah CaO 68,894% dan SiO2 19,189 % yang terkandung dalam mineral kalsit, portlandite, dan kuarsa dengan morfologi yang heterogen serta ukuran partikel diantara 200 μm – 300 μm. Hasil pelarutan menunjukkan bahwa kelarutan silika tertinggi diperoleh dalam pelarut asam sitrat 2 M yaitu sebesar 26,35 %.

ABSTRAK. Mikroalga Nannochlopsis sp merupakan alternatif bahan baku yang digunakan untuk pembuatan biodiesel karena memiliki kandungan asam lemak dan lipid yang tinggi serta pertumbuhannya yang begitu cepat. Metode yang digunakan yaitu transesterifikasi in situ dimana proses ekstraksi dan transesterifikasi berlangsung secara bersamaan yang terdiri dari 2 tahap, proses transestrifikasi in situ dan pemurnian biodiesel. Proses transeserifikasi in situ berlangsung selama 8 jam setelah itu, dilanjutkan dengan proses distilasi untuk menghilangkan kandungan n-heksana dan di oven selama 2 jam untuk menguapkan air yang tersisa. Penelitian ini memiliki tujuan yaitu untuk mengetahui pengaruh rasio molar minyak mikroalga : metanol dengan variasi katalis yang dimana rasio 1:6 memiliki tingkat kesetimbangan yang tinggi sehingga dapat menghasilkan %yield yang besar. Rasio molar minyak mikroalga : metanol 1:6 dengan variasi katalis KOH 2; 2,5; 3; 3,5; dan 4%w/w, dengan pelarut n-heksana 70%v/v terhadap yield crude dan kandungan FFA. Hasil yield crude biodiesel yang didapatkan pada penelitian ini sebesar 7%, kadar FFA sebesar 0,74 mg NaOH/gr. ABSTRACT. Microalgae Nannochloropsis sp is an alternative raw material which is used for biodiesel production because it has a high content of fatty acids and increased lipid and its growth is so fast. The method was in situ transesterification in which extraction and transesterification processes took place simultaneously and consisted of 2 steps; in situ transesterification process and biodiesel purification. The in-situ transesterification process lasted for 8 hours after that, followed by a distillation process to remove the n-hexane content and in the oven for 2 hours to evaporate the remaining air. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of the molar ratio from microalgae oil: methanol with variations of catalyst where the ratio of 1:6 has a high equilibrium level so that it can produce a large % yield. the molar ratio from microalgae oil: methanol 1:6 with variations of KOH catalysts 2; 2.5; 3; 3.5; and 4%w/w, with solvent n-hexane is 70%v/v to the yield of crude and FFA biodiesel. The variable used was the molar ratio variation of microalgae oil: methanol 1:6. The yield of biodiesel crude obtained was 7%, and FFA content was 0.74 mg NaOH/gr.

Abstract: Fecal sludge can be treated by conventional treatment such as pond stabilization which is commonly used to reduce organic concentrations. However, nutrients such as NH3 are still widely measured in the effluent. One of the sewerage treatments in the city of Jakarta, for example, experienced this condition. This study aims to design an appropriate technology to increase the efficiency of nutrient ammonia and total suspended solid (TSS) removal at Duri X IPLT. The unit added in the selected effluent treatment is Granular Activated Carbon (GAC). Design considerations are the characteristics of activated carbon, operating conditions (discharge and contact time), and operating mode (fixed-, expanded-, or fluidized-bed, pumped, or gravity flow). The Carbon Usage Rate for removing ammonia and TSS is 1.384 g/L and 0.378 g/L, respectively. Maintenance is required so that the granular activated carbon (GAC) unit can continue operating and functioning properly. Blockages in carbon transport pipes can occur in many pipes. This can occur due to a too-small pipe, a short bend radius of the pipe, a lack of speed, and a lack of cleaning of the pipe. The eroded pipe is also a common problem that often occurs in unlined mild steel and fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP), usually in sharp bends.
摘要:粪便污泥可采用常规处理方法,如池塘稳定化处理,通常用于降低有机浓度。然而,诸如NH3之类的营养物质仍在污水中广泛测量。例如,雅加达市的一个污水处理系统就遇到了这种情况。本研究旨在设计一种合适的工艺来提高Duri X IPLT对营养氨和总悬浮固体(TSS)的去除效率。在选定的污水处理中添加的单元是颗粒活性炭(GAC)。设计考虑的因素是活性炭的特性、操作条件(放电和接触时间)和操作模式(固定、膨胀或流化床、泵送或重力流)。去除率为1.384 g/L,去除率为0.378 g/L。需要进行维护,以便颗粒活性炭(GAC)单元能够继续正常运行和功能。许多管道都可能发生碳输送管道堵塞。这可能是由于管道太小,管道弯曲半径短,速度不足以及管道清洁不足造成的。腐蚀管也是一个常见的问题,经常发生在没有衬里的低碳钢和玻璃钢(FRP)中,通常是在急弯处。

Abstract: Over the past decade, lead halide perovskite light absorbers have been the conventionally used perovskite light absorbers. However, there is an urgent call for alternative perovskite materials with toxicity levels and poor stability to UV radiations. Antimony-based perovskites have proven to be a material with unique optoelectronic properties, conventional fabrication processes, low-toxicity levels and high stability values. In this review, we look into the structure of antimony perovskites, the various research achievements over recent years, and the challenges and opportunities ahead for this budding technology. The review also highlights the various computational, theoretical and experimental studies done by researchers to highlight the peculiar Lead-free perovskite materials and their distinctive features. Although the efficiency levels of these devices are not very high, the improvements they have made with remarkable stability characteristics make them a viable candidate for commercial perovskite photovoltaics

ABSTRAK. Konsumsi energi pada sektor transportasi di Indonesia sangat besar dikarenakan penggunaan BBM yang sangat besar. Besarnya proporsi penggunaan BBM untuk transportasi juga diikuti dengan besarnya subsidi pemerintah untuk BBM.

Dari hasil simulasi tersebut diketahui bahwa harga molases dan bioetanol sangat berpengaruh terhadap realisasi substitusi BBM dengan bioetanol, selain itu ketersedian bahan baku yaitu molasses juga perlu diperhatikan untuk menjaga kontinuitas proses. ABSTRACT. Energy consumption in the transportation sector in Indonesia is very large due to the very large use of fuel. A large proportion of the use of fuel for transportation is also followed by the number of government subsidies for fuel. Data throughout 2010-2020 show that the realization of fuel subsidies is always higher than the budgeted one. So the need for alternatives to reduce fuel consumption in the transportation sector. From a technical point of view, the opportunity to use bioethanol generation 1 (G1) which is made from molasses is easy to apply because of the simple process. From the economic analysis, it can be seen that this project is feasible when the NPV and DCFROR are positive, so when the molasses price is 1.500,00/Kg and the bioethanol price is 15,000.00/liter this project is feasible, as well as when the molasses price is 2.061,00/Kg and the price of molasses is 2.061,00/Kg. bioethanol 16.000,00/liter and when the price of molasses is 2.061,00/Kg and the price of bioethanol is 15.000,00/liter, but when the price of molasses is 2.061,00/Kg and the price of bioethanol is 12.113,00/liter this project is not feasible because of NPV and DCFROR have a negative value. From the simulation results, it is known that the price of molasses and bioethanol is very influential on the realization of the substitution of fuel with bioethanol, the availability of raw materials or molasses also needs to be considered to maintain the continuity of the process.
抽象。印尼运输部门的能源消耗是巨大的,因为燃料的使用非常广泛。汽油运输使用比例以及政府对汽油的补贴水平。2010年至2020年的数据显示,燃料补贴的实现总是比预算更高。因此,在运输部门需要替代燃料的需要。由1代(G1)衍生的生物乙醇的技术机会,由于使用过程的简单,很容易被应用。terlihaat经济分析的这个项目值得当NPV和DCFROR总有积极价值,所以当价格糖浆1.500,00 /公斤,价格15.000,00生物乙醇生产国,升这个项目值得做,当糖浆2.061,00 /公斤,价格也是16.000,00 -升生物乙醇生产国,以及当糖浆2.061,00 /公斤,价格15.000,00生物乙醇生产国,价格升,但当糖蜜价格为2061.1 / Kg,生物乙醇价格为12113.00 /升时,该项目不值得进行,因为NPV和DCFROR具有负面价值。根据这些模拟结果,molases和bio乙醇的价格与生物乙醇的替代品的实现有着深远的影响,除了必须考虑到糖浆的原料可用性,以便保持进程的持续持续性。抽象。印尼运输区的能量消耗与燃料的使用非常相似。政府补贴的汽油数量也在效仿。2010-2020年的数据显示,燃料的实现衰退总是比预算更高。因此,在运输区需要减少燃料的替代方案。从一个技术观点来看,用生物乙醇生成的机会很容易因为简单的处理而被接受。从《经济分析,它可以看到这就是这个项目是可行的时候NPV和DCFROR是阳性,所以当《bioethanol糖浆价格是1.500,00 /公斤,价格是15000点/升。这个项目是可行的,as well as的时候糖浆价格是2.061,00公斤和糖浆之普莱斯是2.061,00 /公斤。bioethanol 16.000,00 -普莱斯》升当糖浆是2.061,00公斤and the price of bioethanol是15.000,00 /升,但当《糖浆价格是2.061,00 / Kg和《bioethanol普莱斯是12.113,00升这项目不可行,因为NPV DCFROR著作百科全书》祝你们负价值。从结果的模拟来看,我们知道糖浆和生物乙醇的价格与生物乙醇的实现关系密切,而原始材料或糖浆的应用也需要被考虑来延续这些进程。

Batik dye waste pollutes the Bengawan Solo River in high levels. One of the effective efforts to overcome pollution in the aquatic environment is through a degradation process using photocatalysts with UV-rays. In this research, carbon nitride nanosheets as photocatalyst with zirconium and cobalt doping was used. The addition of doping on g-C3N4 nanosheets was able to improve the photocatalytic performance. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of various types of doping on the photoremediation performance of carbon nitride nanosheets. Synthesize Co-doped g-C3N4 nanosheets and Zr-doped g-C3N4 nanosheets was carried out by synthesizing pure g-C3N4 nanosheets using melamine and ammonium sulfate that calcined at 600°C. Afterwards, the mixture was impregnated by Zr and Co-doped using a vacuum evaporator. The effectiveness of the photocatalyst to degrading rhodamine-B was analyzed using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and UV-Visible Spectrophotometer. The result shows that photodegradation performance of Co and Zr-doped g-C3N4 nanosheets has increased. Based on the absorbance data of photocatalysts, the Zr-doped g-C3N4 nanosheets photocatalyst give the most optimal results in degrading rhodamine-B with the final rhodamine-B concentration close to zero.

ABSTRACT. Plastic causes environmental pollution because it is difficult to decompose in nature. The large amount of bagasse in Indonesia and the high cellulose content can be used as filler for making bioplastics.

ABSTRAK. Kabupaten Boyolali memiliki jumlah penduduk tertinggi kedua di eks-Karesidenan Surakarta sehingga limbah cair domestik yang dihasilkan juga tinggi. Hal ini mendorong upaya pengelolaan limbah domestik menggunakan SANFAB ST 600. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui efektivitas kinerja IPAL Individual SANFAB ST 600 setelah diberi perlakuan dengan Anaerobic Granule Bacteria. SANFAB ST 600 memiliki volume 600 L dan berkapasitas 1-4 orang. Air limbah rumah tangga yang dialirkan ke inlet ST akan menuju ke settler, selanjutnya mengalir secara upstream dalam unit Anaerobic Filter dan terjadi penguraian zat pencemar oleh bakteri anaerobik. Pengambilan sampel dilakukan pada dua rumah di Dusun Karangmojo, Kabupaten Boyolali. Sampel diuji di BLKK Yogyakarta untuk parameter TSS, COD, BOD, konsentrasi Amonia, pH, dan ORP. Pada minggu ketiga di Rumah Bapak Wahyudi, karakteristik outlet ST memiliki nilai TSS 25,5 mg/L, Amonia 0,255 mg/L, BOD 25,01 mg/L, dan COD 47,92 mg/L sehingga sudah sesuai baku mutu. Dari hasil uji dilakukan perhitungan efektivitas pengolahan TSS, BOD, dan COD dengan cara menghitung selisih konstanta inlet dan outlet dibagi dengan konstanta inlet serta perhitungan rasio BOD/COD dengan membagi kadar COD dan BOD setiap sampel. Dari sumber limbah WC dan kamar mandi (Rumah Bapak Wahyudi) bakteri bekerja lebih efektif dibanding sumber limbah WC (Rumah Bapak Somowirejo) dengan efisiensi lebih dari 80% pada minggu ketiga penambahan bakteri. Kata kunci:anaerobic granule bacteria, efisiensi, limbah domestik, IPAL ST 600 ABSTRACT. Boyolali Regency has the second highest population in the residence of Surakarta so the domestic wastewater generation is also high. This led to the management of domestic wastewater using Individual WWTP SANFAB ST 600. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of Individual WWTP SANFAB ST 600 after being treated with Anaerobic Granule Bacteria. The SANFAB ST 600 has a volume of 600 L and a capacity of 1-4 people. Domestic wastewater that flows into the ST inlet will go to the settler, then flows upstream into the Anaerobic Filter unit and decomposed by anaerobic bacteria. Sampling was carried out at two houses in Karangmojo, Boyolali Regency. Samples were tested at BLKK Yogyakarta for parameters of TSS, COD, BOD, Ammonia concentration, pH, and ORP. In the third week at Wahyudi's house, the characteristics of the ST outlet had a value of TSS 25.5 mg/L, Ammonia 0.255 mg/L, BOD 25.01 mg/L, and COD 47.92 mg/L so it already suitable with the standard. From the test results, the effectiveness of TSS, BOD, and COD reduction is calculated by the difference between the inlet and outlet constants divided by the inlet constant and also calculating the BOD/COD ratio by dividing the COD and BOD levels of each sample. From the source of WC and bathroom waste (Mr. Wahyudi's House) the bacteria worked more effectively than the WC source (Mr. Somowirejo's House) with an efficiency of more than 80% in the third week after

ABSTRACT. Tanning activity consumes high volumes of water resulting in large volumes of highly colored polluted wastewater being discharged to the environment. In this study, the discoloration of the wastewater of the local artisanal tannery using SiO2 synthesized from rice husks and silica/sand mixture at different process conditions was investigated. The results revealed that the discoloration process is favorable for both adsorbents at 35oC with maximum of 61% for sand/SiO2 mixture system and 64% for SiO2 system. The presence of NaCl electrolyte enhanced the discoloration for both adsorbents increasing from 44% for sand/SiO2 mixture at 0 NaCl to 72% at 0.5M NaCl and from 49% for SiO2 system at 0 NaCl to 63 % at 0.5M NaCl. Increasing the amount of sand from 0.2 to 1 g at fixed SiO2 of 0.1 g in sand/SiO2 mixture showed discoloration from 40-41 % while increasing SiO2 in SiO2 alone system from 0.05 to 0.5 g had a discoloration of 45-71%. Results of this study shows that sand a very abundant local and worldwide material can be complemented with silica in a very low cost tannery wastewater discoloration process.
