Mercury is a liquid metal that has properties such as toxic, persistent, bioaccumulating, and its vapor can spread around sources so that it is harmful to humans. Despite having dangerous properties, mercury is found in some goods, products, and also waste. Mercury is indicated to be used in several industries, such as artisanal and small-scale gold mining and coal-fired steam power plants. Based on health and environmental considerations, mercury must ultimately be removed from the eco cycle. Mercury storage systems in the long term must be solved so that sustainable development for future generations can be achieved. Currently, there is still no mercury storage system in Indonesia with a good standard design, so the conceptual design study of the mercury elemental storage system is important. In this paper, the storage tanks with a mercury capacity of 35 kilograms, one tonne, and two tonnes were designed to meet mercury storage standards. Several design criteria were used as model development, such as storage capacity, height level, safety factor material, storage temperature, tank life span, and symbols and label. The design results presented in this paper are dimension and engineering drawing of the storage tanks and attributes like spill tray, pallet, and rack.Keywords: environment; hazardous and toxic material; Indonesia; mercury; storage tanks

Bagasse as solid waste in sugarcane industry can be utilized as one of the potential raw materials in the bioprocess industry. This research aims to investigate the conversion of bagasse to bioethanol using simultaneous saccharification and fermentation in an airlift bioreactor. Neurospora intermedia was used as a biological agent that carried out the saccharification and fermentation of sugarcane bagasse simultaneously for bioethanol production. Cell morphology of N. intermedia in the form of pellet was required to provide free movement in the axial flow of airlift bioreactor. The medium pH strongly affects the morphological shape of N. intermedia. Therefore, the formation of good pellets of inoculum was observed under acidic conditions, i.e. pH 3.0 â€“ 3.5. The effect of the initial concentration of nutrient on the inoculum growth was also investigated. Inoculums cultured in potato dextrose broth (PDB) medium with a half the strength of the common nutrient concentration of PDB qualitatively indicated good growth in terms of the size and density of cells. The inoculums with good morphological form were fed into the airlift bioreactor, which already contained a liquid medium with initial pH of 3.5 and also contained pre-treated bagasse. In experiments using the airlift bioreactor, the pre-treated bagasse was added to various nutrient concentrations of the PDB infusion medium. The highest bioethanol production from bagasse was monitored in the medium culture of half strength PDB infusion. The yield of bioethanol obtained from total sugarcane bagasse and PDB in an air lift bioreactor achieved approximately 40%, which has an infusion medium with a half-strength PDB and initial pH of 3.0.Â

Hepatitis B is the major health problem worldwide including in Indonesia. Vaccination is the best prevention strategy for the disease. For the purpose of vaccine development and to decrease drug import, production of Hepatitis B Virus (HBV) small surface antigen (sHBsAg) from Indonesian HBV subtype is needed. The recombinant protein production can be conducted by integrating multi expression cassettes of sHBsAg gene in Pichia pastoris chromosome using gene replacement method. Such integration method turns out to allow loss of foreign gene from chromosome by excisional recombination-mediated looping out. This research was aimed to determine integration stability of four copies of sHBsAg expression cassette in P. pastoris GS115 chromosome inducted with 2% methanol in FM22 medium. The methanol induction was conducted twice at 63-h and 75-h. Integration stability determination was conducted qualitatively using PCR and quantitatively using qPCR absolute quantification. A band of 208 bp with similar intensity was observed after amplification of genomic DNA. All samples generated the same Ct value of around 22 with four copies of sHBsAg gene per genome. The result from this experiment shows that integration of four copies of sHBsAg expression cassette in P. pastoris GS115 chromosome is stable during methanol induction.

Abstrak. Biosolubilisasi batubara peringkat rendahmerupakan teknologi yang menjanjikan untuk mendapatkan bahan bakar cair yang ramah lingkungan. Biosolubilisasi batubara peringkat rendah dapat dilakukan dengan menggunakan mikroorganisme seperti Neurospora intermedia yang mampu menghasilkan enzim-enzim pensolubilisasi. Mekanisme biosolubilisasibatubaraterjadikarenaadsorpsienzim-enzim tersebutkepermukaan partikel batubara, sehingga proses perlakuan awal batubara perlu dilakukan untuk memudahkan proses adsorpsi enzim.Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengkaji pengaruh perlakuan awal partikel batubara peringkat rendah terhadap struktur batubara dan perolehan biosolubilisasi. Pengaruh perlakuan awal tersebut dikaji dengan membandingkan biosolubilisasi menggunakan partikel batubara tanpa perlakuan awal (B1), perlakuan fisik dengan memberikan radiasi microwave 511 Watt selama 5 menit (B2), perlakuan kimiawi dengan merendam partikel batubara dalam HNO3 8 M selama 48 jam (B3), serta perlakuan kombinasi radiasi microwave selama 5 menit dan HNO3 dengan konsentrasi 2, 4, 6, dan 8 M selama 48 jam (B4, B5, B6, dan B7). Partikel batubara B1 memiliki rentang diameter mesopori sebesar 33,97 Å, sedangkan partikel batubara yang telah mengalami perlakuan awal mengalami peningkatan diameter pori namun masih dalam rentang mesopori. Luas permukaan persatuan massa dan volume pori yang tertinggi diperoleh dari perlakuan B3, masing-masing adalah 44,39 m2/g dan 0,09 cc/g. Hasil analisis proksimat dan ultimat menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan asam dapat mengurangi kandungan karbon terikat. Secara kualitatif dapat terlihat bahwa biosolubilisasi batubara B1, B2, B4, dan B5 tidak terjadi dengan baik, sehingga tidak terdapat cairan hitam sebagai hasil batubara yang tersolubilisasi, sedangkan biosolubilisasi batubara B3, B6, dan B7 menghasilkan cairan hitam sejak hari pertama. Secara kuantitatif, biosolubilisasi batubara peringkat rendah menggunakan perlakuan B3 menghasilkan konsentrasi asam humat dan persentase biosolubilisasi yang tertinggi, masing-masing yaitu 186,1 mmol/L dan 67,8%. Kata kunci: biosolubilisasi batubara, HNO3, Neurospora intermedia, radiasi microwave. Abstract. Effect of Microwave Radiation and Acid Treatment on Low Grade Coal on Biosolubilization Acquisition Using Neurospora intermedia. Bio-solubilization of low rank coal is a promising technology to obtain environmentally friendly liquid fuel. Bio-solubilization can be carried out using microorganism, such as Neurospora intermedia, which is capable to produce solubilizing enzymes. Mechanism of coal bio-solubilization occurs due to enzymes adsorption onto surface of coal, so that the low rank coal pre-treatment is needed to easy enzyme adsorption. This research examines the effects of low rank coal pre-treatment towards coal structure and bio-solubilization yields. The effects of the pre-treatment were studied by comparing the bio-solubilization using coal with the following specification: without treatment (B1), physical pre-treatment of 511 Watt microwave radiation for 5 minutes (B2), chemical pre-treatment using 8 M HNO3 for 48 hours (B3), and pre-treatment with a combination of microwave radiation for 5 minutes and acid treatment using various HNO3 concentration of 2, 4, 6, and 8 M for 48 hours (B4, B5, B6, and B7, respectively). Coal particle of B1 had mesopore diameter range of 33.97 Å, while coal particle with pre-treatment have increased pore diameter, but are still in range of mesopore. The coal obtained by B3 process has the highest specific surface area and pore volume, which were 44.39 m2/g and 0.99 cc/g, respectively. The proximate and ultimate analyses showed that acid treatment reduced fixed carbon contain. Coal bio-solubilization of B1, B2, B4, and B5 by qualitative could not be solubilized and there was no black liquid as a result of solubilized coal, meanwhile, B3, B6, and B7 were solubilized easily since the first day. Bio-solubilization of chemically pre-treatment low rank coal, B3, resulted in the highest humic acid concentration and bio-solubilization percentage i.e. 186.1 mmol/L and 67.8%, respectively. Keywords: coal bio-solubilization, HNO3, microwave radiation, Neurospora intermedia.

Endoglucanase is used in industries that apply high temperatures, such as bioethanol, detergent, paper, and animal feed industries. Most available endoglucanases have very low stability at high temperatures. Therefore, this study aimed to identfy a new thermostable endoglucanase that is able to maintain its actvity at high temperatures. Five isolates of thermophilic bacteria were previously isolated from the hydrothermal vent of West Kawio, Indonesia. Among them, the DSI2 isolate showed the highest endoglucanase actvity, and was identfed and named as Bacillus safensis DSI2. The EgDSI2 gene was cloned from B. safensis DSI2. EgDSI2 is 1851 bp long encoding a protein of 616 amino acids. The encoded protein, EgDSI2, has high sequence identty to other B. safensis endoglucanases and was predicted with the Compute pI/Mw tool to be 69.41 kDa. EgDSI2 was high in hydrophobic amino acids. The enzyme had higher percentage of Ala andPro, and lower percentage of Gly compared to thermolabile endoglucanases from two Bacillus species. EgDSI2 harbored a catalytc domain belonging to glycosyl hydrolase family 9 (GH9) and a type 3 cellulose‐binding domain (CBM3). Propertes of endoglucanases with GH9‐CBM3 modular organizaton include actvity over a wide pH range, high optmum temperature, and thermostablity. Therefore, EgDSI2 has potental applicatons in the industries.

The huge amount of rice hull biomass available in Indonesia can be utilized as raw material for bio-silica production. This study investigated the production of high-purity bio-silica from rice hull ash through an alkaline extraction process. A full factorial design (FFD) was used to screen for significant effects of the observed variables. Three operating variables – acid concentration, solvent to feed ratio (RS/F), and extraction time – were investigated with the purpose of obtaining a high yield and high purity of bio-silica. Yield and purity above 96% were achieved by using pretreatment with 1 mol/L HCl. Employing an RS/F of 5 and a longer extraction time improved the bio-silica yield. The operating variable that enhanced the bio-silica yield and purity most was acid concentration. All variable interactions had an insignificant effect on purity, while two interacting variables had a significant effect on bio-silica yield. Based on the results of this study, rice crop residue can be optimally converted to a bio-silica product in terms of yield and purity by optimizing the most effective operating variables.
