Abstract

The current study examines the catalytic activity of Cu2+-exchanged cation montmorillonite K-10 (MMT K-10) catalyst, which synthesized by hydrothermal method. X-ray fluoressence (XRF) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) were used for characterizing the newly synthesis catalyst. The effect of thermal activation on the support of MMT K-10 with a modifier Cu investigated on its catalytic performance for conversion waste cooking oil to produce fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) by transesterification reaction. Synthesis biodiesel was further characterized by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectroscopy (GC-MS). The biodiesel was obtained at transesterification reaction conditions: 3% (w/w) catalyst loading, molar ratio of oil to methanol = 1:10, and 3 h of reaction time at 90°C. The yield of FAME of WCO for MMT K-10, MMT K-10/Cu2+, MMT K-10 (activation 110°C)/Cu2+, MMT K-10 (activation 300°C)/Cu2+ catalysts were the 9,47%; 10,36%; 10,41%; and 12,01% of FAME, respectively. This study exhibites that the activation of thermal on the support MMT K-10 which modified by Cu2+ leads to reduction of the crystal size. The decreasing crystal size contributes on increasing catalytic performance of the heterogeneous catalyst.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the effect of variations in the acceptor group of dithiophen-based type D-π-A dyes that are efficiently used as sensitizers in DSSC. The calculation uses the 16W Gaussian program with Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Time Dependent-DFT (TD-DFT) methods with the B3LYP/6-31G set base. Based on the results of the study, it is known that acceptor variations can affect the shift in absorption spectrum and bandgap values. The dye AT5 is predicted to have higher efficiency to be used as a sensitizer, because it has the smallest bandgap value and has a dipole moment value, as well as a larger wavelength. The smaller the bandgap value, the absorbedyu light will shift towards the red shift, and the electron excitation process will be easier. It can be concluded that dyes with cyanide formal acceptors can improve the efficiency of D-π-A type dyes as sensitizers in DSSC.

Abstract

In this study, anthocyanin dyes have been designed in two ways: without modification and with modification, incorporating donor chains and π-chains, and forming the structure of type D-π-A dyes. The anthocyanin dyes used are delphinidine, cyanidin, pelargonidin, malvidin, petunidine, and fragarine. Meanwhile, the modified molecule is a combination of anthocyanin dye as an acceptor chain, coumarin as a donor chain, and 1,4-dihydro-pyrrolo[3,2-b]pyrrole as a π-conjugation chain. The molecular structure was calculated using a 16W Gaussian Software with the DFT method and the B3LYP/6-31G base set. The results of the calculation on the dye without modification showed that the malvidin dye produced the smallest bandgap of 2.4085 eV and the largest light absorption. Meanwhile, the results of the calculation of the modified dye showed that the modified dye with the delphinidin acceptor produced the smallest bandgap of 1.4485 eV and the largest light absorption. In conclusion, modified anthocyanin dyes can improve the light absorption efficiency in DSSCs.
