Abstract

The effective use of waste biomass is an important factor for sustainability and global energy consciousness. Unsurprisingly, tree wastes such as leaves, petiole and branch are plentiful during trimming or autumn season which offer an economical source of biomass. The objective of this study was to probe the mechanical and thermal characteristics of briquettes created from tree waste of langsat, guava and rambutan tree. Collected tree wastes (leaves, petiole and branches) were chopped, mixed and then carbonized at 400-600 °C using a Charcoal Retort tube system. The briquettes were molded manually using a Hydraulically Briquetting Machine at pressures of 20 and 50 N/cm2 for half an hour to 3 hours with regards on the type, density and fragments of the tree. Two system and machine were designed and fabricated by Biophysics Lab, Dept. of Physics, Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Jember. Results indicated that briquettes made from tree waste of langsat, guava and rambutan have signs of mechanical and thermal properties which can be used as briquettes for various industrial uses.Keywords: Sustainability, Alternate fuel, Tree waste, Biomass, Briquette

Abstract

CT Scan merupakan alat pencitraan sinar-X yang dipadukan dengan komputer pengolah data sehingga mampu menghasilkan gambar potongan melintang tubuh dan memiliki dosis relatif lebih tinggi, karena berasal dari radiasi primer dan radiasi hambur dari setiap slice. Dosis yang dihasilkan dipengaruhi oleh parameter scan yaitu faktor eksposi (tegangan tabung, arus- waktu rotasi) dan ketebalan irisan. Kuantitas dosis pada pemeriksaan CT Scan digunakan metode Computed Tomography Dose Index (CTDI). Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengatahui efek variasi parameter scan terhadap CTDI dan kualitas citra dengan menggunakan phantom. Hasil data yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa pada variasi 200 mAs, 120 kV dan 5 mm menghasilkan CTDIvol dan CNR optimum dengan nilai masing-masing 25.8 mGy dan 3.51. Hal ini disebabkan adanya keseimbangan nilai antara faktor eksposi yang tidak memiliki rentang yang terlalu jauh sehingga menghasilkan energi dan kuantitas sinar X yang seimbang dan ketebalan irisan tidak menghasilkan noise tinggi sehingga objek dalam phantom tetap dapat terlihat lebih baik. Kata Kunci: CT Scan, CTDI, CTDIvol, LCR, CNR.
