Abstract

Nitrogen recovery from wastewater is capable of preventing eutrophication, offering economic benefits, and reducing carbon footprint from synthetic fertilizer production. Biochar has been explored as adsorbent for ammonium (NH??) removal. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the potential of biochar derived from cocopeat as adsorbent for NH?? removal. Cocopeat was modified by potassium hydroxide (KOH) and pyrolyzed at 500°C for 2 h to produce activated biochar. Kinetics and isotherm studies were conducted to examine adsorption mechanisms. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) data showed that the resulting biochar after activation and adsorption contained hydroxyl O–H and C–O groups, while a new N–H band confirmed the interaction with NH?? ions. Biochar adsorbed NH?? ions with a maximum capacity of 0.3078?mg/g. FTIR spectra showed shifts and changes in the intensity of functional group bands, confirming the interaction between NH?? ion and the active sites on biochar surface. Adsorption followed Langmuir isotherm and pseudo-first-order kinetics model, with an optimal contact time of 5 h. These results suggested that cocopeat-based biochar had potential as an effective NH?? adsorbent.

Abstract

Sargassum sp.. is an essential source of fucoidan. This work aims to extract fucoidan from Sargassum sp.. using a liquid biphasic system assisted by ultrasonics. It observes the effects of various process parameters on fucoidan yield, determines the optimum extraction conditions, and develops a model for extraction kinetics. In the experiment, 80-mesh Sargassum sp.. powder is ultrasonically treated in a 2-propanol solution. Furthermore, the extract is separated by the addition of a K₂HPO₄ solution, which forms a two-phase system. Following the process, the CaCl2 is introduced to separate the alginate. Afterwards, ethanol is added to the resulting filtrate to precipitate fucoidan. This approach highlights techniques for efficient extraction and separation of fucoidan from Sargassum sp.. The process parametperaturaers included extraction time (10, 15, and 20 minutes), ultrasonic power (60%, 65%, and 70%), and the Sargassum-to-solvent ratio (0.03, 0.04, and 0.05 g/mL). This work confirms that FTIR and HPLC techniques successfully identified fucoidan. The highest yield, 14.1%, was achieved with a Sargassum-to-solvent ratio of 0.04 g/mL, an extraction time of 20 minutes, and an ultrasonic power of 70%. The results indicate that extraction time is a significant factor compared to power and the Sargassum-to-solvent ratio. The diffusion coefficient (Dₑ) of 1.425118 × 10⁻² m²/s suggests relatively rapid diffusion under the applied extraction conditions.

Abstract

Ulva lactuca merupakan biota laut yang berpotensi sebagai sumber bahan aktif kosmetik karena kandungan bioaktifnya seperti flavonoid, alkaloid, saponin, terpenoid, dan tanin. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengekstraksi flavonoid serta menganalisis nilai Sun Protection Factor (SPF) U. lactuca menggunakan kombinasi metode cell disruption dan ultrasound-assisted hot water (UAHW). Tiga metode perlakuan cell disruption (tanpa perlakuan, osmotic shock, dan hidrotermal dengan autoklaf) dikombinasikan dengan variabel UAHW yaitu suhu ultrasonik (40, 60, 80 °C) dan waktu ultrasonik (5, 10, 15 menit). Ekstraksi dilakukan menggunakan pelarut etanol 96% pada serbuk U. lactuca berukuran 60 mesh. Optimasi dilakukan menggunakan Response Surface Methodology (RSM) dengan Box–Behnken Design (BBD). Hasil menunjukkan bahwa total flavonoid dan nilai SPF tertinggi (33,23 mg QE/g dan SPF 20,80) diperoleh tanpa perlakuan cell disruption, pada suhu 80 °C dan waktu ekstraksi 10 menit. Penelitian ini menegaskan bahwa metode UAHW efektif meningkatkan ekstraksi flavonoid dan SPF meskipun tanpa cell disruption. Selain itu, pendekatan RSM terbukti efisien dalam optimasi proses. Studi ini memberikan kontribusi pada pengembangan bahan aktif alami U. lactuca untuk aplikasi kosmetik, khususnya sebagai agen pelindung sinar UV.Optimization of Flavonoid Extraction from Ulva lactuca Using a Combination of Cell Disruption and Ultrasound-Assisted Hot Water. Ulva lactuca is a marine organism with significant potential as a source of active ingredients for cosmetic applications, owing to bioactive compounds such as flavonoids, alkaloids, saponins, terpenoids, and tannins. This study aimed to extract flavonoids and evaluate the Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of U. lactuca using a combination of cell disruption methods and ultrasound-assisted hot water (UAHW) extraction. Three cell disruption treatments (no treatment, osmotic shock, and hydrothermal using an autoclave) were combined with UAHW variables, including ultrasonic temperature (40, 60, 80 °C) and ultrasonic time (5, 10, 15 minutes). The extraction was conducted using 96% ethanol as a solvent on U. lactuca powder sieved to 60 mesh. Optimization was performed using Response Surface Methodology (RSM) with a Box–Behnken Design (BBD). The highest total flavonoid content (33.23 mg QE/g extract) and SPF value (20.80) were obtained without cell disruption, at 80°C for 10 minutes. The study confirms that UAHW effectively enhances flavonoid extraction and SPF, even without cell disruption. Furthermore, the RSM approach proved efficient for process optimization. This study contributes to developing natural active ingredients from U. lactuca for cosmetic applications, particularly as UV-protective agents.
