Abstract

Geographically, Petuk Liti Village is located within Pulang Pisau Regency and within the Kahayan Tengah District. This village also serves as a transportation hub between regencies, including Gunung Mas Regency, South Barito Regency, North Barito Regency, and Kapuas Regency. In agriculture, plantations, and fisheries, the residents of Petuk Liti Village primarily cultivate rubber, oil palm, and rattan trees. Manual spraying is still often carried out using conventional tools such as knapsack sprayers, which are manually operated or powered by fossil fuel engines. Besides being tiring, using these tools is inefficient in terms of time and energy, and contributes to carbon emissions that worsen environmental conditions (Putri & Santoso, 2020). With the increasing need for energy-efficient and environmentally friendly technology, an innovative solution is needed, namely the implementation of solar panel-based electric sprayers. Through an educational and applied approach, this community service is expected to improve farmers' skills and awareness of the importance of transitioning to green energy in daily agricultural production activities. The targeted outputs of this community service are the manufacture of electric sprayers and the publication of articles in SINTA-accredited journals and HKI.

Abstract

In simple water distribution systems, one of the main challenges often encountered is the slow flow of water from the storage tank to the point of use, especially in gravity systems that lack additional pumps. Water flow rate is significantly influenced by water level (head pressure), pipe diameter, and internal pressure within the system. Low water flow can disrupt the efficiency of water utilization for household, agricultural, and other technical purposes. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of air pressure in increasing water flow from a storage tank through a closed pipe system. This research also contributes to the development of simple, efficient water distribution technology that can be implemented in remote areas or areas with limited infrastructure. This research is a quantitative experimental study aimed at determining the effect of air pressure on water flow in the pipe system from the storage tank. The research was conducted at the Building Engineering Education Laboratory, Faculty of Teacher Training and Education, Palangka Raya University. Specific plans and targets include publication of this research in a SINTA-accredited journal, HKI, and a research video
