The construction of a new CFPP in Indonesia, which was located next to three existing power plants and utilized an existing discharge channel, faced the problem of insufficient capacity of the existing discharge channel to deliver water to four power plants. The problem occurred not only because of the overcapacity of the cooling water flow proposed by the new CFPP but also because of the small size of the culvert located in the discharge channel. This paper discusses several methods to overcome this problem by enlarging the culvert area or by removing the culvert from the channel and replacing it with a bridge. A hydraulic study was investigated using the HEC-RAS software by utilizing inputs obtained from the existing channel geometry and flow measurement data. It was found that additional culverts on both sides with a size of 2 m x 4 m and 3 m x 1 m could reduce the water level by 1.12 m and 0.39 m, respectively. Meanwhile, removing the culvert provided a significant water level reduction of 1.39 m. Enlarging the culvert was chosen as the solution to the discharge channel capacity issue since removing the culvert would require temporarily closing the channel during construction and stopping the operation of the existing power plant.
在印度尼西亚建设新的CFPP,该项目位于三个现有发电厂旁边,利用现有的排放通道,面临现有排放通道容量不足的问题,无法向四个发电厂供水。出现问题的原因不仅是由于新CFPP提出的冷却水流量过剩,而且由于位于排放通道中的涵洞尺寸较小。本文讨论了几种克服这一问题的方法,即扩大涵洞面积或将涵洞从通道中移除并用桥梁代替。使用HEC-RAS软件,利用从现有通道几何形状和流量测量数据中获得的输入,进行了水力研究。研究发现,两侧加设2 m × 4 m和3 m × 1 m的涵洞,可分别降低水位1.12 m和0.39 m。同时,拆除涵洞使水位显著降低1.39米。由于拆除涵洞需要在施工期间暂时关闭涵洞并停止现有发电厂的运行,因此选择扩大涵洞作为解决排放渠道容量问题的办法。

Among various types of energy storage, the supercapacitor is regarded as the most promising device due to its long cycling life, good cycling stability, and high power density. A supercapacitor is generally composed of electrodes, electrolytes, and a separator. The separator is one of the most important components, serving to prevent internal short circuits between the anode and the cathode. Herein, a nanostructured-based separator in a PAN/PVDF nanofiber scheme is introduced for improving the electrochemical performance of the supercapacitor. Briefly, the membranes were produced via the electrospinning technique. All of the raw materials were blended in various compositions of PVDF for optimization purposes. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were carried out to identify the microstructure of the nanofibers. The electrochemical properties of the membrane were measured using galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD). Based on GCD, it was shown that the PAN/PVDF 20 wt% membrane exhibited the optimum gravimetric capacitance at 54.104 Fg-1 as evidenced by a high porosity percentage. Thus, the PAN/PVDF nanofiber has good potential as a separator for application in supercapacitors.

Long rails are normally used in highspeed railways to minimize the number of rail joints and the dynamic impact force that follows. However, transporting long rails using a freight train requires multiple wagons for each rail section, presenting potential safety and loading gauge issues, especially when going through curves. Thus, a safety assessment needs to be done prior to actual transport. Computational simulation can be used for preliminary assessment. Finite element analysis can be used to incorporate the flexibility of the rails into the analysis but requires significant manpower and computer power to perform. In this study, an alternative method to model rail flexibility using a multibody approach is presented. The rails are sectioned into multiple rigid bodies along their length and interconnected using rotational joints. The stiffness coefficient of the joints is defined as a function of the actual rail’s physical properties. This modelling technique results in a simplified multibody model that retains the original rail elastic properties. Simulations of the constructed rail model hauled using a freight train were done and the results were compared to on-track test measurements of the same configuration. The comparison generally showed good agreement, showing this modelling technique’s ability and accuracy to simulate the case.

The development of nanotechnology and nanomaterials has had an upward surge in recent years, not only because of the type of technology but also because of the unique properties and characteristics of nanomaterials. This growth motivated us to make an analysis of emerging technologies in the development of metallic, bimetallic, and metal-oxide nanoparticles covering a period of ten years, which have had a high impact on the development of different products applied to biomedicine, electronics, agriculture, energy, plastics, etc. This research found more than one and a half million scientific papers under the keyword ‘nanotechnology’ in the Scopus database. This article reports a scientometric analysis where aspects such as articles with the highest number of citations, countries with the highest production, representative institutions in the field, authors and the relation of citations, correlations between them, keyword analysis, as well as the most studied topics in this field were investigated. On the other hand, the number of patents produced was reviewed in a general way. The databases Scopus, Journal Citation Report, VOSviewer, and other computer tools were used for the analysis. The results showed the United States (17.3%) and China (15.3%) as the countries with the greatest impact on studying metallic and bimetallic nanoparticles, with a high correlation between different countries. It is worth highlighting the participation of India with 10.1% and more than twice as many scientific papers as Germany; in the case of patents, the United States and China accounted for 55.3% of the total patents.

Microplastic pollution is a pressing environmental concern with detrimental effects on aquatic ecosystems and human health. This study aimed to investigate microplastic contamination in a rapidly urbanizing area along a river and to examine the spatial distribution of microplastic abundance across the study area based on land use type. Seven sampling points were selected along the study site and microplastic samples were extracted using density separation and wet peroxidation (WPO) methods. The characteristics of the microplastic particles, including size, color, shape, and abundance, were analyzed to understand their properties. The results indicated that the microplastic abundance values ranged from 28.33 to 133.00 particles/liter, with an average of 73.55 particles/liter. Small microplastic particles (SMP), with sizes ranging from 1 μm to 1 mm, along with fragment shapes, and clear colors were predominant in the study area. A generalized additive model was utilized to assess the relationship between land use and microplastic abundance. The model demonstrated a significant influence of built-up areas on the presence of microplastics (p-value < 0.05), with an r2 value of 0.76. Residential areas near the river were identified as the likely primary sources of the microplastics.

Open dumping systems as implemented by the Batu Layang landfill in Pontianak City, Indonesia can cause leachate pollution in the environment. The constituent soil condition affects the leachate distribution into the ground. One of the landfill constituents of the soil at the site of the Batu Layang landfill is peat soil, in which organic content (>75%), porosity, and permeability are high. Leachate that seeps below the earth’s surface can cause soil and groundwater contamination. Meanwhile, people around landfills use groundwater for their daily needs and use the land around the landfill to grow papaya, banana, sugarcane, and taro. Therefore it is necessary to prevent and minimize leachate spread. One of the efforts that can be done is to model the leachate distribution. In this study, leachate distribution modeling was done with a geoelectric method, the Wenner configuration, with a smallest electrode distance of 5 m. There were six tracks, with a length of 195 m each. The model obtained from this study was a 3D resistivity section. 3D data processing was done using the inverse distance method. The results showed that a resistivity value ≤10 Ωm identified the soil layer contaminated with leachate. The contaminated soil layers were estimated to be peat, clay, and loamy sand. The leachate distribution is suspected of seeping up to 195 m south of the landfill. The leachate distribution into the soil was estimated from the surface to 33.8 m.

Metal injection molding (MIM) is a metal forming technique that combines powder metallurgy with plastic injection molding. MIM is very efficient in manufacturing small and complex products in large quantities. The MIM process has four steps: mixing, debinding, injection molding, and sintering. This research was conducted to determine the effect of variations in Sn addition, temperature, and holding time on the density of Al-PP products after the sintering process. Density is mass per volume so to find out the volume of Al-PP products, the use of a 3D scanner was attempted along with the EinScan application and a mesh mixer. The Taguchi method was used for data processing to determine the influence of variations in Sn addition, temperature, and holding time on density. The calculation of the percentage contribution showed that variations in Sn addition, temperature, and holding time affected density by 47%, 21%, and 3%. Also, 2% Sn addition yielded a reasonably good microstructure formation compared to without Sn addition and 1% Sn addition, where many voids remained in the specimen (the more significant the voids, the lower the density).

The application of zeolite catalyst has been expanded to support on-purpose sustainable technology. This review focused on zeolite application to produce aromatic compounds from non-petroleum carbon-based resources, including methanol, CO2, CO, and biomass. For COx resources, the two main routes for producing aromatics products are discussed, i.e., the olefinic and the oxygenates-mediated route. Moreover, several improvement strategies for enhancing catalytic performance are also discussed, i.e., the addition of metal components, tuning the metal and zeolite structure, and modifying the reaction process. Finally, prospects for future development are formulated.

This paper introduces the technique of fault distance estimation based on modal transformation and signal processing. The recorded faulted phase currents are applied to the Karrenbauer model transformation and these model component currents are decomposed into detail coefficients by the use of Daubechies wavelet, db6. The fault recorder installed at the terminal of the feeder records different time delays between the modal components. In order to find fault distance, the time delay values and modal components velocity are used in traveling wave theory. This paper compares two different conditions: the first condition does not use a modal transformation and the second condition uses a modal transformation. When using modal transformation conditions, three different coefficient levels (detail coefficient level 1 (D1); the combination of detail coefficient level 1+2 (D1+2) and the combination of detail coefficient level 1+2+3 (D1+2+3) ) are used to estimate the fault distance. Different fault types with different fault locations are created in MATLAB simulation.

Different fault types with different fault locations are created in MATLAB simulation.","PeriodicalId":15689,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Engineering and Technological Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2023-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46907769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) is a promising approach to provide energy consumption monitoring of electrical appliances and analysis of current and voltage data with less instrumentation. This paper proposes an electrical load classification model using support vector machine (SVM). SVM was chosen to keep the computational cost low and be able to implement an embedded system. The SVM model was utilized to classify the on/off state of air conditioners, light bulbs, other uncategorized electronics, and their combinations. It utilizes low-frequency sampling data captured every minute, or at a 0.0167 Hz rate. Utilization change in active and reactive power was used as a feature in the model training. The optimal kernel for the model was the radial basis function (RBF) kernel with C and gamma values of 88.587 and 2.336 as hyperparameters, producing a highly accurate model. In testing with real-time conditions, the model classified the on/off state of the electrical loads with 0.93 precision, 0.91 recall, and 0.91 f-score. The results of testing proved that the model can be applied in real time with high accuracy and with an acceptable performance in field implementation using an embedded system.
