Abstract

One type of hazardous industrial waste is phenol. The photocatalysis process has become the choice for the treatment of phenol waste. Titanium dioxide or titania (TiO2) is a photocatalyst material that is often used. Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are known to be used to improve the performance of TiO2 photocatalyst material. The CNT used was modified with CTAB (Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide) surfactant. The purpose of this research are to determine the effect of temperature degradation on the performance of the Titania-CNT (CTAB) composites in degrading phenols through the process of photocatalysis. The study began with surface modification of CNT using CTAB surfactant. Then the modified CNT was compiled with TiO2. Then Titania-CNT (CTAB) composite performance in degradating phenol was tested using a variation of the degradation temperature of 40oC and 50oC. The results of this research indicate that as the temperature increases, the phenol which can be degraded by the Titania-CNT (CTAB) composite is also increasing. The highest effectiveness of composite TitaniaCNT (CTAB) performance was obtained when the degradation temperature of 50oC was 99.54%. Keywords : phenol, photocatalysis, composites, TiO2, CNT, CTAB

Abstract

The Kraft pulping process has become the most widely used pulping process in the papermaking industry since its discovery in 1879.This process has three main advantages over other pulping processes, namely the resulting fiber is stronger, can be applied to all wood species. Both softwood and hardwood, and lower operating costs due to the chemical can be reprocessed at a high efficiency of around 97%. One of the units in chemical reprocessing is a plant that aims to produce white liquid (WL) from green liquid (GL) which is then used as a medium for cooking chips in the Digester. This study aims to study temperature variations in the I-V slaker unit at PT. RAPP on the total active alkali (TAA) variation of WL in WL tanks. The temperature of each slaker was correlated with TAA WL using a linear regression approach and was re-tested by comparing the causticizing efficiency in each slaker. To get the optimal operational process in each slaker for the variation of TTA GL and temperature in the slaker, the multiple regression method approach was used. The TAA WL prediction results from multiple regression between TTA and temperature in the slaker were then compared with the TAA WL obtained in the laboratory and it was found that the two values were very close. So this method can be used to determine the optimal operation for variations in TTA GL and temperature in the slaker. If the variation of TAA WL is very small, the proportion of alkaline charge used in the digester can be so that the operational costs can be drawn.

Abstract

The sodium lignosulfonate (SLS) is a derivative compound from lignin which has various usefulness. Commercial SLS is a by-product of Arbiso pulping sulfite industry, but nowadays, the amount of available commercial SLS is scare due to the expensive price of SLS. Therefore, it is needed to find the solution to produce of SLS using a feasible process. This research involves producing SLS by directly cooking the palm oil stem biomass dust in a pressurized reactor using sodium bi-sulfite (NaHSO3) solvent. The experiment focused on the modeling, influence of process variables and its optimization that statistically analyze using the Response Surface Method-Central Composite Design (RSM-CCD). The result showed that the solid-liquid ratio is the most affecting factor to the SLS rendemen. The relation between rendemen and temperature (T), pH (C) and solid-liquid ratio (R) can be modeled as % rendemen = 12.18 + 0.52T – 0.48C + 3.5R – 1.02T2 – C2 – 1.53R2. The optimal operation conditions were identified at temperature of 153.8oC, pH = 4.64 and solid-liquid ratio of 1:15.9.

Abstract

Data acquisition (DAQ) is a part of control system and almost applied in all aspects, in industrial automation processes. The main objective of this research is to construct the DAQ using Arduino Python-based in developing a graphical user interface (GUI). The system consists of two components, i.e. hardware and software, which are designed on client-runtime module. PyQt5 was chosen as the basis for developing the GUI. The DAQ system testing is carried out on a stirred heating tank with the observations of fluid temperatures and actuation element is electric heaters. The GUI allows users to be able to visualize and store data in real time mode. The performance of the system is verified based on manual observation. It was found that the system could be carried out for interactive manual control. Even so, the created system can be used for data collection process in the process control laboratory in Chemical Engineering Department of Riau University. In the future, it is expected that the performance of the system can be improved.Keywords: data acquisition, control, Arduino, Python, GUI

Abstract

Oil palm trunks are agricultural solid waste that has not been used optimally. Oil palm trunks have a high starch content so that they can be used as raw materials for making bioplastics, dextrins and adhesives. The experiment of hydrolisys of starch-free oil palm trunks was intended to study the effect of time and catalyst concentration on the obtained pentoses and furfurals. Hydrolisys of starch-free palm trunks was carried out in batches on a laboratory scale. The experimental variables studied were formic acid concentration 85% by weight, catalyst concentration (0; 0.05; 0.1; 0.15; 0.2% by weight), reaction time (0; 5; 10; 15; 20; 30 . ; 45; 60; 90; 120; 180 minutes) and a solid-to-liquid ratio of 15/1. The experimental results showed that the time and concentration of the catalyst greatly influenced the pentose and furfural in the process of hydrolisys of starch-free oil palm trunks. The levels of pentose and furfural dissolved in the used cooking liquid in this experiment were pentose (0.31-1.37 grams/l) and furfural (1.45-2.95 grams) with the percentage of hemicellulose recovery ranging from (28-57% ).Keywords: palm trunk, starch-free, delignification, organosolv, formic acid

Abstract

The use of natural rubber in the form of solids such as crumb rubber (SIR 20) will require a long time when mixing with asphalt, therefore mastication process is used before mixing with asphalt. Mastication is process of grinding natural rubber in open mill to break the chain in natural rubber polymer. The aim of this study to determine the effect of rubber mastication and rubber storage time after mastication on modified asphalt characteristics. In mastication process, asphalt as plasticizer agents with levels of 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4% and 5% w/w and rubber storage time after mastication are 0 days and 30 days. The asphalt used is 60/70 penetration type asphalt. Asphalt modified by mixing SIR 20 and asphalt with a ration of 1:9 at temperature of 165oC and stirring time for 30 minutes. Modified asphalt is tested for penetration test, softening point, marshall stability, and weight loss. The results of the study showed that the addition of plasticizers in rubber and rubber storage time after mastication affected the value of penetration, softening point, marshall stability, and weight loss. The best results were obtained at 0% plasticizer content and 0 days rubber storage time with a Penetration value of 58.5 dmm, Softening Point 59.1ºC, Marshall Stability 1710.9 kg, and Weight Loss 0%. The storage time of 30 days, the best results on a 5% plasticizer content with a Penetration value of 58.4 mm, Softening Point 56.3ºC, Marshall Stability 1463.3 kg, and Weight Loss 0.27%.Keywords : asphalt modification, plasticizer, mastication, SIR 20, penetration, softening point, marshall stability
