Abstract

Moringa seeds are one of the natural coagulant ingredients that contain protein and carbohydrates that can be used in water purification, especially in reducing turbidity. This study aims to determine the level of NaCl coagulated by Moringa seed powder. The capacity or coagulation ability of Moringa seed powder is measured by the percentage of NaCl in the solution coagulated by Moringa seed powder. To achieve this purpose, several experiments have been used, namely variations in the concentration of NaCl as samples including; 0.5 %, 1 %, 3%, and 5% with treatment using Moringa seed powder as much as 1 g, 3 g and 5 g—determination of NaCl content using Flame Photometers BWB Technologies. The results of this study indicate that the optimum level of NaCl coagulated by Moringa seed powder is 3 %. The concentration can increase the effectiveness of reducing NaCl levels by obtaining a coagulated percentage value of 95.30 %.

Abstract

Avocado is a fruit that has a high nutritional value are beneficial for human health. In the fruit of the avocado are seeds of avocado that are still less utilization thus discarded and become waste. The content in avocado seeds can be used as an adsorbent. This research utilizes avocado seed powder (Persea americana Mill). As Metal Cu(II) Adsorbent. This study aims to determine the water content, ash content, and optimum pH of the adsorption of Cu(II) metal using avocado seed powder. Determining the concentration of Metal Cu(II) using the tool spectrophotometry Atomic Absorption (AAS). Determination of the optimum pH is done by varying the pH 2, pH 3, and pH 4. This research results show that the water content is 4.88% and the ash content is 1.94%. The results of the analysis of the optimum pH to adsorb Cu(II) metal is pH 4 with a percentage of metal that is absorbed by 65.515%. Based on the results of the study showed that avocado seeds can be used as adsorbents.
