Abstract

PT. Sintas Kurama Perdana is the only formic acid production plant in Indonesia. The company places high attention on the daily operating conditions of its production process, ensuring that every parameter, such as flow rate, temperature, pressure, and components, is maintained according to the set point. In the production process of methyl formate and formic acid, optimization of operational conditions, especially in the heat exchanger unit, is the main focus. The shell and tube type heat exchanger, specifically with the code AG-666, is used to condense the AT-660 distillate vapor output. This study assesses whether the AG-666 is capable of total condensation without the need for the assistance of the AG-667 condenser in anticipation if the AG-667 does not function. The analysis is carried out based on the clean overall coefficient (Uc), design overall coefficient (Ud), fouling factor (Rd), efficiency, and effectiveness for actual design conditions and re-design. The data owned from the initial design of the survival is the Uc value of 1525 W/m2.K, Rd value of 0.00032 m2.K/W, efficiency of 82%, and effectiveness of 75%. The actual condition of the heat exchanger has a Uc value of 801.71 W/m2.K, Ud value of 104.62 Btu/ft.h.℉, Rd value of 0.000436 m2.K/W, efficiency of 74%, and effectiveness of 50%. Re-Design shows that increasing the number of passes (4 passes in the shell and 8 passes in the tube) allows single-stage condensation at an outlet temperature of 32 °C without non-condensable gases such as CO. Comparison between the initial design and the re-design results shows an increase in efficiency of 80% and effectiveness of 57.78%, with Uc 725.83 W/m2.K and Ud 102.27 Btu/ft.h.℉. The redesign provided better performance than the original design, although actual efficiency was slightly lower.

Abstract

Heat Exchanger is a device used to transfer heat between fluids to get the temperature operating conditions as needed. This research was conducted to obtain Heat Exchanger design calculations to solve problems and adjust the needs of PT X. The design of the Heat Exchanger is obtained by the Double Pipe Heat Exchanger type with a heat transfer area of 7.37 ft2. The hot fluid, Condensate Steam, will fill the inner pipe while the cold fluid in the form of refrigerant water will fill the annulus pipe. Superheated steam has a temperature higher than its boiling point at the same pressure. Steam condensate is steam that has cooled and condensed back into water after being used to do work or after losing heat.The length and number of hairpin heat exchangers are 10 ft and 1 hairpin. The height of the heat exchanger is 30cm. The designed heat exchanger uses turbulence flow type to optimize and streamline heat transfer. The performance and capability of the heat exchanger obtained Overall Dirty Coeficient Heat Transfer (Ud) 250 Btu/hr ft2 oF, Overall Clean Coeficient Heat Transfer (Uc) 558.027 Btu/hr ft2 oF, Fouling Factor (Rd) 0.002. The pressure drop values for both annulus and innerpipe are 0.99 psi and 2.321 psi, which do not exceed the safe limit. The friction values obtained on the innerpipe and annulus are 0.006 and 0.0105.

Abstract

“Penggunaan pewarna alami pada tekstil dapat ditingkatkan dengan memanfaatkan sumber daya alam seperti daun jati muda dan sabut kelapa, sehingga juga dapat meminimalkan penggunaan pewarna sintetis yang dapat membahayakan kesehatan manusia dan lingkungan. dari penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana pengaruh perendaman sabutkelapa dalam ekstrak daun jati muda terhadap intensitas warna dan ketahanan luntur warna kain katun setelah dicuci dengan sabun, serta pengaruh kapur tohor (CaO) sebagai fiksator terhadap intensitas warna dan daya tahan luntur warna kain katun yang telah dicuci dengan sabun. Penelitian ini meliputi beberapa tahapan. Pertama, daun jati muda diekstraksi dengan teknik perebusan dengan perbandingan 1 kilogram per 10 liter, menggunakan air sebagai pelarut dan memanaskan campuran pada suhu 100°C selama 30 menit. Kedua, merendam sabut kelapa selama 24 atau 48 jam pada ekstrak daun jati muda. Ketiga, cara mencelupkan kain pada ekstrak daun jati muda dengan merendamnya selama 24, 48, dan tidak direndam sama sekali. Keemepat, proses fiksasi menggunakan kapur tohor (CaO) 10gr/1liter air. Kelima, proses pengujian intensitas warna menggunakan spektrofotometer UV-Vis 2401 PC dan pengujian tahan luntur warna terhadap pencucian menggunakan sabun menggunakan grey schale. Hasil penelitian ini menunjukan bahwa sampel tanpa perlakuan perendaman menunjukan intensitas warna yang lebih rendah dengan nilai R% (9,45) dibandingkan dengan sampel pada perendaman selama 24 dengan nilai R% (18,24)) dan 48 jam dengan nilai R% (24,06). Pada pengujian tahan luntur warna ketiganya memiliki nilai luntur warna yang cukup baik dengan nilai (4-5). Pada perlakuan pemberian fiksator dapat mempengaruhi intensitas warna menjadi lebih tinggi sehingga warna yang dihasilkan menjadi lebih cerah, baik pada perendaman menggunakan sabut kelapa maupun tanpa perendaman. Sampel dengan fiksator dan tanpa perendaman memiliki nilai R% yang lebih rendah (26) dibandingankan sampel dengan fiksator dan perendaman selama 24 jam memiliki nilai R% ( 62,38), sampel dengan fiksator dan perendaman selama 48 jam memiliki nilai R% (72,11).

Abstract

The selection of metal as a construction material used for the industrial world is an important factor that is in accordance with industrial provisions. Corrosion is a factor that must be considered due to the corrosion impact of damage can cause losses in various aspects. AISI 304 stainless steel is one of the stainless steel materials that is resistant to corrosion so that it is widely used in several industries. The corrosion protection in AISI 304 stainless steel has to be carried out with the method of using corrosion inhibitors and protective coatings so that it can reduce damage and extend the life of the AISI 304 stainless steel metal material. Electrochemistry and weight loss methods are used in testing so that the corrosion rate of AISI 304 stainless steel material can be known in various temperature, salinity, and electrolyte solution. The results of temperature variations show that the corrosion rate decreases with increasing temperature and immersion time. The results showed that the higher salinity level of the water media produced the higher the corrosion rate. In the variation of electrolyte solution, the best corrosion resistance of AISI 304 stainless steel occurs in electrolyte solutions with low concentrations. In addition, the mechanical loading study indicates that the magnitude of the loading causes the corrosion rate to increase. In this case, to inhibit corrosion by considering temperature factors, water salinity media environment, chemical substances around the material, and mechanical loads, it is important to carry out corrosion protection in order to slow down the corrosion rate so that it is more effective in its application, minimize damage and loss and extend the life of the AISI 304 stainless steel metal material used sector, the selection of metal as a construction material used for the industrial world is an important factor that is in accordance with industrial provisions.
