Abstract

This study aims to analyze the growth kinetics of saccharomyces cerevisiae in the bioethanol production process based on oil palm empty fruit bunch waste. Growth kinetics parameters are an important basis for fermentor design, especially the maximum growth rate constant to determine the minimum biomass residence time. The minimum biomass residence time is a critical point for fermentor operation in processing empty oil palm fruit bunches into bioethanol. This research was the laboratory experimental research method with a quantitative approach. The result in this research shows the growth kinetics parameters of saccharomyces cerevisiae have been successfully determined to produce the highest bioethanol at 5% KOH variation. Kinetic analysis established a substrate saturation coefficient (KS) of 28.195 g/L under the S < 10 K criterion, alongside a maximum specific growth rate (mM) of 0.00073 hour?¹. Furthermore, the process demonstrated a biomass yield (Yx/S) of 0.053 g/g and a product yield (YP/S) of 2.96 g/g, culminating in a final bioethanol productivity of 0.41 g/L·h. Therefore, these growth kinetics parameters can be used in designing a fermentor system for processing empty oil palm fruit bunches into bioethanol.

Abstract

The Sail River acts as the main drainage in Pekanbaru City. Several community activities around the Sail River, such as residential areas, plantations, livestock, shops, markets, and schools, cause decreasing in water quality in the Sail River. For this reason, it is necessary to analyze the water quality of the Sail River using the STORET method and the Pollution Index. The physical (temperature, TSS, TDS), chemical (pH, COD, DO, Pb), and biological (total coliform) parameters were analyzed. The results of the water quality analysis obtained were compared with Class II Water Quality Standards based on PP No. 22 of 2021. The results of the analysis of the quality status of the Sail River downstream based on the STORET method over the last five years show a "heavily polluted" condition, while the results of the IP method analysis show a "moderately polluted" condition. Based on the STORET and Pollution Index methods results, sail river needs a pollution control policy and management to overcome the pollution.
