Abstract

AbstractFreezing is the best method to preserve the quality of food for a long period of time compared to other technologies such as drying and canning. Technology of freezing requires more energy than other preservation technologies, however. Therefore, an energy efficient freezer is needed. This research aims to the effect of utilization of a receiver to improve the freezer performance efficency. The research is conducted on freezer used to cool and freeze 1 kg of water from a temperature of 27oC to -14oC, then a receiver is installed in the freezer and the same research is conducted (the type and setting of expansion valve and test materials are the same). The refrigerant medium is R404A working fluid. The receiver is installed between condenser and filter dryer in the system circuit of the freezer. The result shows that the utilization of receiver increases the coefficent of performance (COP) from 2.24 to 2.69 and reduce the electricity consumption. The time required for freezing becomes shorter particularly on the transition of liquid to solid phase (ice) . Consequently, the freezing rate becomes quicker and provides advantages for application of food freezing.AbstrakPembekuan merupakan metode yang paling baik untuk menjaga kualitas makanan dalam jangka waktu lama, dibanding dengan teknologi lain seperti pengeringan dan pengalengan. Namun teknologi pembekuan membutuhkan lebih banyak energi daripada teknologi pengawetan lainnya, karena itu diperlukan mesin pembeku yang hemat energi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mempelajari pengaruh penggunaan receiver untuk meningkatkan efisiensi kinerja mesin pembeku. Penelitian dilakukan pada mesin pembeku yang digunakan untuk mendinginkan dan membekukan air 1 kg dari suhu 27oC sampai -14oC, selanjutnya penelitian mesin pembeku ditambahkan receiver dan dilakukan penelitian yang sama (bukaan katup ekpansi diatur tetap dan sama, serta bahan uji dilakukan dalam kondisi sama). Media pendingin menggunakan fluida kerja R404A. Receiver diletakkan di antara kondensor dan filter dryer pada rangkaian sistem mesin pembeku. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penggunaan receiver pada mesin pembeku berdampak pada peningkataan koefisien kinerja (COP) dari 2.24 menjadi 2.69, dan terjadi penghematan konsumsi energi listrik. Waktu proses pembekuan menjadi lebih singkat, khususnya pada tahap perubahan fase cair menjadi es, sehingga laju pembekuan menjadi lebih cepat dan memberi keuntungan untuk penerapan pada pembekuan bahan pangan.

Abstract

Abstract Static penetrometer is designed to measure the force that required to push a conical probe of the soil deepness through a constant velocity. The output data are force per unit area without soil factor influenced, i.e. soil moisture content. Soil moisture content is an important factor that affects soil penetration resistance. The soil moisture content method that commonly uses a gravimetric method can takes a long time to obtain data of soil moisture conten. Therefore a penetrometer is needed which can measure the soil moisture content at once. The objective of study is to design and develop static penetrometer equipped with soil moisture sensor and android based data record system. Loadcell and HX711 used as force sensor, HC-SR04 and DHT11 used as depth sensor and a kit soil moisture module has been modified as soil moisture sensor. Calibration and validation result of the sensor shown that the correlation value of R2=0.9994 and R2=0.9995 (force sensor), R2=0.9999 and R2=0.9999 (depth sensor) and R2= 0.9098 and R2=0.9255 (soil moisture sensor). Penetrometer performance test in land result obtained the value of R2=0.9583 for cone index, R2=0.9994 for depth sensor dan R2=0.6673 moisture content sensor. Penetrometer pervormance test in rice field result obtained the value of R2=0.9583 for cone index, R2=0.9941 for depth sensor and R2=0.7201 moisture content sensor. The result of regression anlaysis for moisture content equation obtained value R2=0.7201 for testing on dry land and R2=0.9058 for testing in the paddy fields. The experimental result shown that the new develop penetrometer instrument can be used as an alternative instrument to measure soil pentration that eqquiped with soil moisture content data.AbstrakPenetrometer statis didesain untuk mengukur gaya yang dibutuhkan untuk menekan probe kerucut kedalaman tanah dengan kecepatan konstan.

Abstract

Mulberry (Morus Sp.) is widely used in sericulture as silkworms’ fodder. Aside from being a silkworm feed, mulberry plants can also be used as food crops, animal feed and medicine. Mulberry plant breeding can be done by two methods, generative method (through seeds) and vegetative method (part of the plant itself). Vegetative seedlings methods have been done by many silk farmers. Vegetative techniques are relatively easier to do and quickly get leaf production. Vegetative techniques that are mostly used is stake. In mulberry cultivation, one of the processes that consumes a lot of energy is the planting process. Planting mulberry stake is still done manually. In this study planter will be designed which are expected to increase the capacity and efficiency of planting. The design process includes a preliminary study in the form of a study of material characteristics to determine design criteria. After that, the selection of components and mechanisms is carried out, followed by making drawings and prototypes. Planter prototypes tested with static test to evaluate the function of metering device. The Result obtained collecting function error is 0.5 % with one case where metering device fail to collect and zero case of more than one stake collected. The average of damaged stake is 2 % but mostly happen in left metering device with 4 %. The number indicates that modification is needed.

Abstract

Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) has the potency to be converted to biohydrogen by dark fermentation. The statistical approach was used to determine the relationship between pH and biohydrogen production. This study aims to investigate the effect of pH on biohydrogen production with a statistical approach. Three substrates were treated with neutral pH and three without pH treatment. This experiment used the trapezoidal numerical integration method to get the total production of H2 produced per measurement time interval. There are nine substrate combinations tested. Three tests concluded that there was no difference in hydrogen production due to the pH treatment, and the sixth test concluded that there was a difference in hydrogen production due to the influence of pH. The tendency of every substrate to influence biohydrogen production without pH treatment and with pH treatment is a polynomial degree 3.

Abstract

A critical factor in the enhancement of agricultural productivity is the utilization of agricultural tools and machinery. The challenges posed by reduced labor, narrow rice fields, and deep surface soil layers create significant difficulties for such equipment. Soil penetration resistance refers to the capacity of soil to resist the loads applied to it. The pressure exerted on the soil by agricultural machinery and tools hinders their effective functioning. The present study has been designed to determine the influence of soil evaporation resistance value on the type of agricultural machinery that can be applied. The measurement of soil carrying capacity value is measured in 3 land categories. The analysis was carried out by comparing the value of soil penetration resistance with the tractor's trafficability index. This research was conducted from February to July 2024, and the measured penetration resistance in the sample land was found to be in the range of 0.55–0.90 at a depth of 10 cm and 0.82–1.14 at a depth of 15 cm. A comparison of the penetration resistance values with the trafficability index, which delineates the operational parameters for agricultural machinery, revealed that four-wheel tractors and combine harvesters would be unable to operate on the sample land. The application of these machines would result in subsidence levels of more than 15 cm for category 1 and 2 and more than 20 cm for category 3.

Abstract

Palm oil is one type of plants that has various advantages. One of the advantages is almost all parts of the plant, such as trunk, empty fruit bunch (EFB), and the extracted oil, can be utilized as energy. Utilization of EFB for energy, especially the use of combustible gas as direct feed of combustion engines to generate electricity is still rarely used. This is related to the water content and the large amount of volatile substances that will give an unfavorable impact on the quality of the gas produced. To overcome this, information on the characteristics and thermophysical properties, such as dew point, of gases from the EFB biomass is indispensable. In this study, three EFB samples were taken from three different environmental conditions, namely samples A, B and C, to be analyzed. The elemental and proximate analysis as well as GCMS pyrolysis test of the samples were then used to characterize the EFB and determine its thermo-physical properties in terms of its dew point. The elemental analysis of the EFB samples showed disparity of its content, which was around 52.08 ± 7.59% (C), 7.05 ± 0.53% (H), 2.28 ± 0.43% (N), 0.35 ± 0.36% (S) and 34.84 ± 4.45% (O). Likewise, the proximate analysis showed differences around 4.49 ± 2.60% (MC), 5.80 ± 1.97% (FC) and 73.44 ± 3.78% (VM). From the elemental and proximate analysis, it can be predicted that tar compounds produced from pyrolysis of the EFB at a temperature of 400oC, was in the form of mixed oxidation compounds (mixed oxygenates). The compounds were classified as the first tar compound (class 2) consisting of phenols (ketones, phenol and guaiacol). The condensation temperature and the concentration of the tar in its pyrolysis gas were predicted to be 204.22oC, tar 1720.79 mg/Nm3 (sample A); 256.02oC, tar 92.97 mg/Nm3 (sample B); and154.85oC, tar 359.02 mg/Nm3 (sample C), respectively. This information can be useful in designing the tar elimination devices from the pyrolysis gas.

Abstract

Muddy paddy fields cause the traction performance of conventional traction devices to be suboptimal. Research on the analysis of traction performance on various traction devices is needed. The objective of this research is to design, analyze traction performance, and determine the best design from three models of traction devices, i.e. 1) track type, 2) pedal type, and 3) screw type on deep muddy soil. The research method used in this study is experimental, testing the traction performance of the three models at soil bin in muddy soil conditions at 25 cm deep. The parameters measured during the traction performance test are slip, sinkage, and traction efficiency. The treatment used in this study is a vertical load ranging from 93.2 N to 222.7 N. The best traction device design was chosen using the Analytical Hierarchy Process method. The results show that the traction performance achieved the highest score in determining the best traction device design, with a score of 0.78 (track) for the minimum load, 0.83 (track) for the medium load, and 0.87 (track) for the maximum load. Therefore, the track design was ideal, scoring the highest across all parameters.
