Abstract

Global demand for energy needs has increased due to the rapid development of the human population, raising the industrial prosperity in developing countries. Primary energy demand is still supplied from fossil fuels, such as oil, coal and natural gas. The utilization of fossil fuels will continuously enhance the effect of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. On the other hand, the extent of the tea plantation area in Indonesia reached 53,009 Ha, so that it will reproduce a waste too. Thus, spent tea as bioetanol. In addition it contains cellulose fibres are quite high, environmentally friendly and economical. Bioethanol as motor vehicle fuels can reduce the addition of CO2 at atmosphere because the use of biomass for the production and usage of bioethanol can be considered as a closed cycle. According to this principle the buyer of CO2 from fuel combustion bioethanol originating from the CO2-based biomass will be reabsorbed by plants through photosynthesis reactions. As a result of this whole process is not accounted for emissions of CO2 liquid gas a greenhouse gas into the atmosphere. Bioethanol-cellulosa can reduce greenhouse gas emissions amounted to 80%. The process into products bioethanol via hydrolysis, fermentation, distillation and characterization using Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). Them is the optimal bioethanol levels produced from fermented inoculant 1% amounting to 8.2% and optimal levels of bioethanol produced from hydrolysis of 8% H2SO4 results amounted to 8.2%, thus optimumsitas the ethanol produced from 8% acid and 1% inoculant apply to have levels of ethanol amounted to 8.2%. The product program could be developed into bioethanol solvent to dissolve the oil that is waxy crude oil.

Abstract

Wax paraffin deposition is a problem faced in the pipeline for petroleum industries that they blockage the partial or full inside the pipe, which will decrease the production rate. One of the treatments is to use the preventive methods called wax inhibitors which are expected to inhibit the crystallization of paraffin wax, and bio-solvent is included. Hydrolysis and fermentation technique are used to produced bio-solvent. Hydrolysis aims to break lignin and hemicellulose, damage the crystal structure, and increase the porosity of the material. At the same time, the occurrence of pentose changes and some glucose into ethanol is present in the fermentation process. Then, purified by the distillation process to obtain bio solvent products that are applied with waxy crude oil can reduce the pour point value of crude oil. From the hydrolysis process with five variations of acid percentage, the amount of reducing sugars increase. By increasing temperature from 50 ° C to 100 ° C, the reducing sugars continues to increase until it reaches the optimal point of 18.2 ° Brix. The amount of inoculant also affects the level of bio-solvent where the optimum results using inoculants are 0.015 g/mL, which produces 6% levels of bioethanol. The high ethanol content of 2% had a density value of 0.979 g/mL. The best °API at 5% is 13.901, and the average value is about 13.0945, where the best viscosity values for ethanol content of 6% are 0.814. Bioethanol testing using waxy crude oil is carried out with the bioethanol content of 6%. The addition of the ethanol contents only decreased the pour point 2-3℃. At sample, #LGK19 experienced a 3°C drop in pour point from 45°C to 42°C. Therefore, it can be concluded that bioethanol used as a solvent can potentially inhibit paraffin deposition.

Abstract

This paper presents a review of electrical heating for the recovery of heavy oil which the work adopts methods used in the past and the prospects for crude oil recovery in the future. Heavy oil is one of the crude oils with API more than 22 which has the potential to overcome the current light oil crisis. However, high viscosity and density are challenges in heavy oil recovery. The method is often used to overcome these challenges by using thermal injection methods, but this method results in economic and environmental issues. The electrical heating method could be a solution to replace conventional thermal methods in which the methodology of electrical heating is to transfer heat into the reservoir due to increasing oil mobility. Because the temperature rises, it could help to reduce oil viscosity, then heavy oil will flow easily. The applications of electrical heating have been adopted in this paper where the prospects of electrical heating are carried out to be useful as guidelines of electrical heating. The challenge of electrical heating is the excessive heat will damage the formation that must be addressed in the prospect of electrical heating which must meet energy efficiency. The use of Artificial intelligence becomes a new technology to overcome problems that are often found in conventional thermal methods where this method could avoid steam breakthrough and excessive heat. Therefore, it becomes more efficient and could reduce costs.

Abstract

The present fuel cell technology is under considerations as a potential power source for Unmanned Aerial Vehicles. Fuel cells are an electrochemical power plant that takes hydrogen and oxygen as inputs and produces electricity, water and heat as outputs. Most of the global hydrogen production is from non-renewable fossil fuels. Therefore, this paper investigates how to save hydrogen fuel consumption and operate at high efficiency in the fuel cell/battery hybrid system to power a small Aircraft. We achieved that by working on the power management of the fuel cell/battery hybrid propulsion system for small UAV by using the fuzzy logic controller and charging up the batteries. The hybrid propulsion system consists of a 1.2kW PEM fuel cell, three 12V batteries, DC/DC converters, and an electric engine. The fuzzy logic controls the batteries' output powers through the bidirectional DC/DC converter. It will help maintain the fuel cell operates at an optimal point with high efficiency as the main power supply for different flight phases to achieve the desired power.

Abstract

One of the methods used to optimize oil production is biopolymer injection. In this study, nanocellulose from cotton leaves was made into a biopolymer by combining the cotton leaf synthesis method with ascorbic acid, then sonified and hydrolyzed using ethanol. SEM and FTIR tests were carried out to see the size and chemical structure. The rheology of KLNC biopolymer was compared with the bipolymer from Xanthan Gum. The salinity and compatibility tests were carried out at various concentrations, as well as knowing the resistance of the biopolymer at reservoir temperature. The results of this study, the morphological shape of KLNC shows that the extraction process does not damage the surface structure. With the same concentration, KLNC biopolymer had a higher viscosity compared to Xanthan Gum biopolymer. KLNC biopolymer is more resistant to salinity and thermal than Xanthan Gum. So that KLNC Biopolymer has the potential to be further developed and researched.

Abstract

Biopolymer from Green Grass Jelly Leaves attracts attention due to its friendlier environmental profile and cost-effectiveness in providing raw materials. This research aims to explore the potential of biopolymers from Green Grass Jelly Leaves as an alternative to synthetic polymers in an effort to increase oil recovery involving sequential pretreatment, extraction, and characterization stages to obtain essential pectin compounds. This experiment centers on a biopolymer sourced from Green Grass Jelly Leaves, involving sequential steps of pretreatment, extraction, and characterization to obtain essential pectin compounds. Characterization employed scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The recorded peak viscosity for Green Grass Jelly Leaves biopolymer was 2.04 cp at 3000 ppm concentration, contrasting with pectin's 1.98 cp viscosity. In comparison, industrial biopolymer Xanthan Gum displayed significantly higher viscosity at 95.01 cp for 3000 ppm concentration. Thermal stability assessment under reservoir conditions (30°C and 60°C) demonstrated that Green Grass Jelly Leaves biopolymer pectin exhibited peak viscosities of 55.29 cP and 51.77 cP at 3000 ppm concentration, respectively. These results show that the comparison between biopolymer and synthetic polymer is not too far and there is an increase in viscosity as the concentration increases, which can increase sweep efficiency.
