Belawan waters are very densely populated with shipping, industrial and settlement. These various activities have an impact in the form of sea pollution by liquid waste such as Pb (II) and oil. Based on the results of the analysis of the content of Pb (II) in the highest waters, which is equal to 26.9120 ppm, it exceeds the threshold. The oil content in the waters has exceeded the threshold of 0.05 gr / L. One way to reduce the levels of Pb (II) and oil is by using coconut husk biosorbent. This is evidenced by the results of the analysis that there was a decrease in Pb (II) metal content after adsorption using coconut coir biosorbent which was equal to 6.2430ppm with adsorption capability of 20,699 ppm. The oil content in the water after the water is adsorbed using coconut coir biosorbent shows the Not Applicable result because the seawater sample has been homogenized so that no significant changes occur. This shows that coconut coir biosorbent is effective to reduce the content of Pb and Oil in water in the waters of the sea.
Belawan水域的航运、工业和定居点非常密集。这些不同的活动以铅(II)和石油等液体废物污染海洋的形式产生影响。根据对最高水域Pb (II)含量的分析结果,Pb (II)含量为26.9120 ppm,超过了阈值。水中的含油量已超过0.05 g / l的阈值,降低铅(II)和油的方法之一是使用椰子壳生物吸附剂。分析结果表明,椰壳生物吸附剂吸附后,Pb (II)金属含量下降6.2430ppm,吸附量为20699 ppm。椰壳生物吸附剂吸附后的水中含油量显示不适用的结果,因为海水样品已经均匀化,没有明显的变化。说明椰壳生物吸附剂对降低海水中铅和油的含量是有效的。

The biosorption characteristic of Cd(II) ions from aqueous solution using Lengkuas Merah (Alpinia Gralanga) were investigated as a function of pH. The maximum biosorption capacity of a Lengkuas Merah (Alpinia Gralanga) for Cd(II) was found to be 18,37 mg/L and 91,85% at optimum pH was 10. At pH 2 to 10 the biosorption of Cd ions tends to increase. The result showed that the lengkuas merah can be evaluated as an alternative biosorbent to treatment waste water containing Cd(II). A Lengkuas Merah is low cost and has considerable high biosorption capacity.

The seed of jackfruit and seed of Durian are solid waste and rarely consumed by society. To increase economic value, the seed of jackfruit and the seed of Durian utilized and processed to be new food source and one of them was chips. The study was done in three stages, making the chips from the seed of jackfruit and the seed of Durian, analyzing the content of nutrient and organoleptic test. Analyzing the content of nutrient in the study was the level of protein, fat, water, dust, and carbohydrate and organoleptic test at color, taste, aroma, and texture from chips produced. Based on the results of study that the level of protein, fat, water, dust, carbohydrate and organoleptic test of chips from the seed of jackfruit was 1.1151%, 0.9687%,9,3626%, 43118%, 84.2419%, and the chips from the seed of Durian the level of protein, fat, water, dust, and carbohydrate were 1.0786%, 2.7932%, 8,8043%, 3.4763 and 83.8477%. The chips from the seed of jackfruit and the seed of Durian had high level of carbohydrate. Thus the writer likes the chips form the seed of jackfruit and the seed of Durian. Based on Anova test toward color, taste, aroma, and texture it indicated that there is no the difference between the seed of jackfruit and the seed of Durian.

Edible film is one of the environmentally friendly packaging materials and not harmful to health because it is made up of natural ingredients such as proteins, lipids, and polysaccharides. In addition to environmentally friendly, the development of edible film on food packaging can provide better product quality, as it is made from natural ingredients that contain various natural chemical compounds that are beneficial and can be directly consumed. In this study prepared edible film derived from durian seed starch with the addition of soursop leaf extract. This research aimed at knowing the physical and chemical characteristics, and antioxidant activity of the edible film. The type of research used is experiment methods. The results showed that the best research findings of the edible film were on the addition of 2 g soursop leaf extract and the physical characteristic was transmission of water vapor that was 1.70 g/m2. 24 hours, the chemical characteristics were water content that was 17.33% and activity of antioxidant that was 1.5875 mg/mL.

The large amount of banana peel waste that increased soil acidity and caused environmental pollution. Bagasse water was used to provide additional sugar besides using Raja Uli banana peel due to the use of sugar is less economical This study is aimed at making vinegar acid with Raja Uli banana peel by adding bagasse water as the weak electrolyte solution on electrolyte and non-electrolyte practice . The optimization was done at the time used for fermentation by varying the time 1, 2, 3, and 4 days in each fermentation step. For testing vinegar acid, FeCl3 and H2SO4 as the qualitative test and alkalimetric titration were used as the quantitative test. The results showed that the third day was the optimum time to produce alcohol content with an average percentage of 2.5% and optimum acetic acid of 0.063 g / 100 mL.

Meat is one of the food products that can easily be damaged, ( therefore it is necessary to preserve the process). therefore it needs to be done the process of preservation. In this study we studied the anti-bacterial activity of Alpinia luteocarpa extract against fresh meat rot bacteria, with paper disc diffusion method which is the standard recommended by the Clinical and Laboratory Standard Institute (CLSI,2012). The results of antibacterial activity test showed extract and fraction of A. luteocarpa able to inhibit bacterial growth B.cereus ATCC 21772 and. K. pneumonia ATTC 13773. The bacteriostatic properties of the extract and fraction of A. luteocarpa against B. cereus ATCC 21772 and K. pneumonia ATTC 13773 were better than the positive control of chlorhexidine antibiotics (500 μg / mL) with inhibition zones 9-11 mm and 7-9 mm.

Water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) has a very rapid growth in the waters so it can cause eutrophication. The silica content of 5.56% allows water hyacinth can be utilized as a natural adsorbent. Bentonit has an advantage as an adsorbent because it has an inter-layered structure that can be easily modified with chitosan, resulting in better performance as an eco-friendly adsorbent. This research aims to determine the characterization of chitosan-bentonite and water hyacinth as a adsorbent of Pb(II)removal. Characterization tests were performed using X-ray difraction (XRD) and Fourier Transform Infra Red (FTIR) spectrophotometry. From the results of quantitative XRD analysis can be seen that the adsorbent of chitosan-bentonit and water hyacinth have different adsorbent characteristic, but has the same crystal system that is triclinic crystal system.
