Abstract

Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions are a type of greenhouse gas emission which is the main factor in the emergence of the global warming phenomenon. Based on the total CO2 emissions released, there are 3 components that most influence high CO2 emissions, namely the electricity sector (42%), transportation (23%) and housing (6%). The trend of increasing CO2 will continue if no preventive measures are taken globally. One of these preventive efforts is to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) into methane (CH4), or known as the methanation process of carbon dioxide. In the field of fuel, the conversion of carbon dioxide into methane gas has more advantages in terms of thermodynamics. One of the factors that determine the methanation process is the activity of the catalyst. The catalyst used in this study was the Ni/Al2O3 catalyst. Ni/Al2O3 catalyst is a catalyst that has good performance in the methane formation process. However, the Ni/Al2O3 catalyst has disadvantages, one of which is that it is susceptible to carbon deposition and sintering on the catalyst. One way to improve catalyst stability performance is by adding a promoter. This research was carried out by varying the temperature, the amount of Ni/Al2O3 catalyst and adding a promoter to give structural changes to the catalyst. The results showed that the temperature and the amount of catalyst affect the amount of CH4 formed, and the addition of manganese (Mn) initiator can affect the pore structure of the catalyst.

Abstract

COMPARISON OF RUBBER MILLING PROCESS TO PRODUCE NATURAL RUBBER COMPOUNDS USING MODIFIED AND UNMODIFIED LOCAL CLAY FILLER. Many researchers have studied the effect of modified clay as filler on rubber compounds for both natural rubber and synthetic rubber. Various chemicals are used as clay modifiers. In the rubber milling process, modified clay is directly used as filler after pretreatment with clay modifier. However, clay modifiers can also be milled together with original clay during the rubber mastication and milling process. Thus both of these methods certainly produce different physical properties, so the comparison of the two rubber milling processes is the focus of this research. The analysis of the curing characteristics and physical properties of vulcanized natural rubber was carried out with a rheometer and physical properties test units. Thermal analysis was carried out using TG/DTA and dispersion of filler on the rubber compound was analyzed by SEM. The results of the curing characteristic of the rubber compound and the physical properties of vulcanization showed that there was an effect due to the comparison of the rubber milling process. Modified clay using JH-S69 is better than JH-S69 milled with original clay and vice versa occurs in PEG 4000 which is used as clay modifier. PEG 4000 which is milled together with original clay produces curing characteristic and physical properties of vulcanization better than pretreatment of clay to be modified clay. This analysis is in line with the analysis using SEM.
