Abstract

Leaves of citronella (Cymbopogon nardus L.) have pretty much essential oil. Essential oil from citronella leaves is generally extracted by conventional methods. Conventional method is still less effective. The problem can be overcome by using non-conventional methods in the form of UMAE (Ultrasound-Microwave Assisted Extraction). UMAE is an extraction process assisted by ultrasound and microwaves. NaCl solution can be used as a solvent in the UMAE method because NaCl has a large dielectric constant. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of extraction time and the addition of salt on the yield and color of essential oils produced using the UMAE. The extraction process begins with the raw material preparation stage, such as harvesting, size reduction, and drying. Then, pre-treatment was carried out using ultrasound for 5 minutes at 35oC with the addition of 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10% (w/v) salt. Pre-treatment results were followed by the extraction process using microwaves for 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90 minutes. The best results were obtained with the addition of 6% salt and 60 minutes of extraction time with a feed to solvent ratio of 0.1 with a yield of 1.975%. and the color is yellow.

Abstract

Proses pembuatan batik melewati beberapa tahap, salah satunya adalah tahap pewarnaan. Pewarna yang digunakan adalah pewarna sintetik yang tahan terhadap degradasi dan mengandung logam berat, sehingga pembuangan limbah industri batik menyebabkan pencemaran lingkungan. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan upaya untuk mengurangi kandungan logam berat pada limbah industri batik untuk mengurangi potensi pencemaran lingkungan. Ion Exchange adalah teknik untuk memisahkan berbagai campuran ion atau molekul yang dapat terionisasi. Ion-ion ini bersaing dengan ion fase gerak untuk berikatan dengan fase diam. Pada penelitian ini limbah dari industri batik digunakan sebagai sampel yang diukur kandungan logamnya dan penukar ion digunakan resin Amberlite IR 120Na. Pada penelitian ini digunakan pompa untuk mengalirkan sampel melalui kolom penukar ion dengan ketinggian resin 20 cm menggunakan variasi laju alir 50 ml/menit. 100 mL/menit; 150 mL/menit; 200 mL/menit; dan 250 mL/menit. Limbah yang sudah melewati kolom penukar ion diukur kadar logam Cr yang tersisa. Kondisi terbaik penurunan logam Cr diperoleh pada laju alir 50 ml/menit, laju reduksi logam Cr mencapai 97,33%. Kandungan logam hasil Cr setelah proses ion exchange memenuhi baku mutu.

Abstract

Calcium phosphate, a naturally occurring biomaterial found in human and animal bones and teeth, possesses desirable properties such as strength, biocompatibility, and the ability to stimulate tissue growth. This study investigates the synthesis of calcium phosphate through a precipitation method without calcination. The process involves dissolving raw materials in phosphoric acid, followed by precipitation using KOH as the precipitating agent. The resulting precipitate was then calcined for 3 hours. The calcium phosphate product was characterized using XRF, XRD, and SEM-EDX techniques. The results indicate a Ca-P molar ratio ranging from 1.855 to 2.302, with the predominant phase identified as -calcium pyrophosphate. SEM analysis reveals a plate-like morphology with agglomerated particles ranging in size from 888 nm to 7.79 m. The synthesized calcium phosphate holds potential for various biomedical applications due to its unique properties and composition.

Abstract

Rice husk waste is an abundant agricultural byproduct in Karang Langit Village, Lamongan, but its utilization is still limited, posing a potential environmental problem. This community service program aims to modernize agricultural practices by utilizing rice husk as a hydroponic growing medium to support food security and promote a circular economy. The methods applied include community coordination, carbonization of rice husks, preparation of the hydroponic system, and both theoretical and practical hands-on training. Evaluation results show a significant increase in participants’ knowledge by 32%. A total of 85% of participants successfully prepared a viable rice-husk-based growing medium, and 75% were able to cultivate and harvest leafy vegetables in the trial phase. Additionally, a farmer group was formed and is committed to independently continuing hydroponic practices after the program’s conclusion. These results confirm that utilizing rice husk as a hydroponic medium not only enhances community skills and self-sufficiency but also opens new economic opportunities. This model is recommended for replication in other agricultural areas to support local food security and environmental sustainability.

Abstract

Rice husk residue has excellent potential as a raw material for making cellulose nanocrystals because of its relatively high cellulose content. This research focuses on determining the most effective hydrolysis conditions, especially the reaction time and nitric acid (HNO₃) content, in the synthesis of cellulose nanocrystals. This study also aims to determine the effect of variations in nitric acid concentration and hydrolysis time on the amount of product produced (yield) and the final size of cellulose nanocrystals. The process of making these nanocrystals involves three main stages, namely the removal of lignin using a 17,5% NaOH solution, followed by annealing using a 10% H₂O₂ solution, and finally breaking the cellulose bonds (acid hydrolysis) with a concentrated nitric acid solution of between 2% and 6% for different time periods (30 to 15 minutes). Product characterization using FT-IR and SEM has been carried out to confirm the presence of cellulose and determine the size of the nanocrystals formed. Experimental results show that the smallest cellulose crystal size achieved is between 0,93 to 65,10 μm, which was obtained through hydrolysis using 6% nitric acid for 150 minutes.

Abstract

Steelmaking processes generate large amounts of slag waste that contain silica, which can be recovered and converted into valuable products. In this study, silica (SiO?) was extracted from steel slag waste through alkaline extraction using sodium hydroxide (NaOH) followed by acid precipitation. The experimental parameters included NaOH concentrations of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 M, and extraction temperatures of 60, 70, 80, 90, and 100 °C. Each extraction was carried out for 60 minutes with continuous stirring at 300 rpm. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed that the product exhibited a broad peak at 2? around 20–30°, which is characteristic of amorphous silica. The results indicated that both NaOH concentration and temperature had a positive correlation with silica yield. As the NaOH concentration and extraction temperature increased, the percentage of extracted silica also increased. The optimum condition was achieved at 100 °C and 2.5 M NaOH, yielding silica with a purity of 91.10%. These findings highlight the potential of utilising steel slag waste as a low-cost raw material for producing amorphous silica. Furthermore, the process demonstrates a sustainable approach to waste valorization while providing high-purity silica for potential applications in industrial materials, adsorbents, and nanotechnology.

Abstract

Biogas is a renewable energy source with great potential to replace fossil fuels; however, the presence of CO? and H?S reduces its quality and combustion efficiency, making purification necessary. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of CO? absorption using Bittern and alkaline solutions (3N KOH, 3N NaOH) with absorbent volumes ranging from 600 to 1000 ml. The absorption process was carried out in a bubble column, and the gas composition was analyzed using an Orsat apparatus and titration method. The results indicated that increasing absorbent volume reduced CO? concentration to 10–15% and H?S to below 1.2%, while increasing CH? content to more than 80%, in accordance with SNI 8019:2014 biogas standards. Stepwise absorption (Bittern–KOH/NaOH) was more effective than single absorbents, yielding up to 87% CH? and reducing CO? to 10%. XRF analysis of the precipitate showed calcium (84.58%) and magnesium (14%) dominance, confirming carbonate and sulfate precipitation. These findings demonstrate that Bittern and alkaline solutions are effective absorbents for biogas purification, with stepwise absorption providing the most optimal improvement in biogas quality.
