Abstract

Membrane pervaporation of ethanol vapor is a purification process based on grade with a purity level is high enough, so that the resulting product is called fuel grade ethanol. Fuel grade the process of increasing ethanol used as a fuel alternative. In this study the ethanol content is done by pervaporation technology method that utilizes a cellulose nitrate membrane separation media. Studies have been conducted on the effect of pressure on the value of the permeate flux and membrane selectivity in pervaporation process. Results showed that operating conditions at a temperature of 100 - 140oC, linear flow rate of 2.5 m3/ h, the variation of permeate side pressure of 500 mbar, 550 mbar, 600 mbar, 650 mbar and 700 mbar produces flux and selectivity values are declining. Optimum conditions reached at permeate side pressure is 700 mbar with the flux values 3.4673 x 10-5 Kg/m2.h and selectivity 0.1257. In these conditions the produce fuel grade ethanol yield reached 99.48%. Ethanol is converted into fuel feed grade reaches ± 99%, with a total volume of 193 ml of the feed volume 200 ml.

Abstract

Stearin is a fat which is solid in room temperature and commonly used  in making candles and soap.  Stearin is usually separated using one of these three methodes ; wet method (lipofractination), dry method and fractionating with solvent.  Among these methods, the dry method is commonly used to separate stearin from crude palm oil, because this process is simple and no chemical is used and produced.  The dry fractionation method was been applied to castor oil, to separate the stearin from its olein. First,  the oil was heated at 700C and then cooled down to 450C in stirring, the cooling process hence separated stearin from the oil.  After that, The crystallization was carried in temperature that was varied from 100C to 200C in range 50C. The processes were varied from 2 hours, 5 hours and 8 hours. The best result obtained at temperature 100C for 8 hours which yielded 34.8% rendemen with 0.255 % water content, having density of 0.8925g/ml and free fatty acid content of 11.177 %.  The Iodine value was 55.518.  These data were closed to the stearin data of stearin from crude palm oil.

Abstract

Coconut shell is one of the biomass that is often thrown away in traditional markets. Though coconut shell can be used as raw material to be processed into charcoal. The content of phenol in the coconut shell plays a role to preserve food naturally. One of the foods that can be preserved with the smoke produced from the coconut shell is smoked fish. But the processing is still traditionally. So therefore, the purpose of this research is to obtain a set of smokers with an environmentally friendly smoke circulation system and reduce the tar content generated from smoke to improve the quality and quantity of the product. This research uses lais fish as raw material and coconut shell as fumigation fuel. The curing temperature is maintained between 80–100 oC for 7-9 hours. Measured data include temperature, time, humidity of the fuming chamber, airflow velocity, fish weight, initial and final fuel weight, and moisture content of the starting and ending fumes. The results of the analysis of this research indicate that temperature, curing time, and airflow rate are the main factors that greatly affect the final mass of fish and the percentage of moisture content during fumigation. Where the average water content lost is 40.1% at 7 hours, 40.7% at 8 hours, and 41.3% at 9 hours.

Abstract

Indonesia has 34.320 million tons of low rank coal in 2015. Low rank coal has total moisture content (surface moisture and inherent moisture) which is about 40%. Upgraded Brown Coal (UBC) is a method of removing moisture content in heated light oil. In this study, the proportion of coal and kerosene being 1:1 with a proportioon of lubricant is 0.5% by weight of the coal. This study aims to determine the most optimal coal particle size and operating condition in the UBC process. The coal before upgrading process is known contain 32.56% of inherent moisture and has calorific value as much as 5,240 cal/gr. After upgrading process there is a significant increase of calorific value on coal 200 mesh which is 8,073.11 cal/gr, and reduction of inherent moisture become 2.16%. The most optimal increasing of calorific value occurs in coal 200 mesh, but this product has a sticky (wet) physical properties because it takes a long time in the drying process.

Abstract

Energy consumption in Indonesia is still dominated by the use of fossil-based energy, especially petroleum and coal. Therefore, biomass as a renewable energy source is an effort to reduce the use of fossil energy in Indonesia. Biopellet is one of the processing of biomass into solid fuel. In the process stage of making biopellet used dryer. In the prototype of drying machine, the independent variables are variation of raw material mix and fixed variable such as air velocity, drying time, and drying temperature.

Abstract

Rose and ylang-ylang flower oil is usually obtained by conventional hydrodistillation and takes a long time. One of the new technologies that can be used is hydro distillation using a microwave. This study aims to study the effect of time and microwave power on the yield of essential oils obtained and will be analyzed with rose oil standards ISO 9842: 2003 and CAS 8007-01-0 and ylang-ylang flower oil SNI 06-7224-2006. The variables tested in this study were the ingredients of rose and ylang-ylang flowers (fresh and wilted), weighing 200 grams and 100 grams, respectively. The microwave power used is 180, 270, 360, 450 Watt. The operating conditions in this method are at 1 atm. The highest yield of rose flower oil yield was at the power of 450 Watt minutes to 90 of 0.1266%, while the highest yield of ylang-ylang flower oil was at power of 360 watts to 90 minutes of 0.2758%. The lowest value of specific energy consumption (SEC) in roses is at a power of 450 watts of 2.0574 kWh / gr. The SEC value of ylang-ylang flower oil is at a power of 360 watts of 2.1318 kWh / gr.

Abstract

Patchouli essential oil that is produced using conventional refining technology often does not meet the requirements for export. Refining using conventional technology requires a relatively long time, the energy required is large and the product quality is low. To improve the quality of patchouli oil and energy savings in this study, the process of making patchouli oil using the Microwave hydro distillation method is used. This process is a combination of the use of microwaves with a distillation system. The material in the flash column section which is made of glass will be penetrated by microwave radiation and will be absorbed by the material. This event will cause heat so that the cell walls in the oil will break and the content in the oil will be free to escape. Based on the results of the study using patchouli plant raw materials, the optimal variation in operating time and microwave power to obtain high yields at 60 minutes power was 0.3301% and the lowest SEC value was at 30 minutes power which was 1.889.92 gr / ml. While the results of the study used patchouli leaf raw materials, the optimal variation in operating time and distillation temperature to obtain high yields at a temperature of 98ËšC minutes 60, namely 0.3301% and the lowest SEC value at a temperature of 98ËšC minutes 30. which is 1,889.92 gr / ml.
