Abstract

The imperative transition to renewable energy drives the need for innovation. Biomass, particularly wood pellets, has demonstrated poor performance in co-firing scenarios. This study employed pyrolysis to convert wood pellets into biochar with improved fuel quality. The biochar production and characterization were investigated at pyrolysis temperatures of 400°C to 500°C. The findings revealed significant improvements: the observed fixed carbon content increased from 67.2% to 78.8%, and the calorific value increased 1.2 times higher within the pyrolysis temperature increased. On the other hand, as the pyrolysis temperature increased from 400°C to 500°C, biochar yields decreased from 49% to 37%. Thermogravimetric (TG) analysis revealed distinct weight loss during heating, illuminating component volatilization and residue accumulation. Furthermore, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy elucidated structural changes, demonstrating the evolution of cellulose and hemicellulose into aromatic structures. Ultimately, these insights into biochar characteristics informed the optimization of pyrolysis processes, contributing to the production of superior biochar for renewable energy applications. Keywords: biochar, biomass, carbon storage, pyrolysis, wood pellet

Abstract

This study aimed to examine the qualities of bamboo-oriented strand board (BOSB) made from Dendrocalamus asper bamboo strands, both with and without steam treatment. Furthermore, the effect of exposure length to natural weathering on the physical and mechanical characteristics of BOSB was examined. The steam treatment lasted one hour at 126°C and a pressure of 0.14 MPa. Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) and paraffin were utilized as adhesives and additives, with concentrations of 5% and 1%, respectively, based on oven-dried weight. The BOSB was exposed to natural weathering in different exposure durations (0, 1, and 3 months) in Bukit Bogor Raya Pajajaran, West Java, Indonesia. Subsequently, the BOSB was tested for its physical and mechanical properties and retention value. The result showed that steam treatment improved the dimensional stability and mechanical properties of BOSB bonded with MDI adhesive more than untreated BOSB. However, steam treatment has a better protection level against natural degradation than untreated samples. These confirm that BOSB with steam treatment is a durable and sustainable construction material.

Abstract

Betung bamboo (Dendrocalamus asper) and andong bamboo (Gigantochloa pseudoarundinacea) are non-timber forest products that can be used as a substitute for wood. However, both bamboos have light colors that are less aesthetic and susceptible to fungal and pest damage. Therefore, it is necessary to modify the bamboo. One of the modification methods used is oil heat treatment (OHT). This research aims to determine the effect of OHT on the color of betung and andong bamboo. This research was carried out the OHT using palm oil at temperatures of 180°C, 200°C, 220°C and 240°C for 2 hours. Color parameter measurements were observed using a colorimeter that implemented the CIE-Lab color system. The color parameters measured include brightness (L*), red/green chromaticity (a*), yellow/blue chromaticity (b*), and overall color change (∆E*). The percentage of bamboo weight loss after OHT was also observed. The research results show that the brightness value (L*) of betung bamboo and andong bamboo has decreased, so that the color becomes darker as the temperature increased. The a* and b* values decreased at all temperatures and durations. In addition, the value of ∆E* increased at all temperatures with a total change showing a value > 12. The decrease in weight of betung bamboo occurred at all temperatures. This heat treatment can make the bamboo color darker and more exotic, thereby increasing the added value of the product and improving the quality of bamboo from fungi and pests due to cellulose degradation.

Abstract

Calliandra biomass pellets offer a promising alternative energy source to replace fossil fuels. Typically, these pellets are produced by directly processing the stem and bark of the calliandra (Calliandra calothyrsus) plant without separation, aiming for manufacturing efficiency. This study investigated the quality differences between calliandra biomass pellets with and without bark and varying particle sizes. Particle sizes used were 20 mesh, 40 mesh, and 60 mesh. The pellets were made using a 12 mm diameter biomass pellet mold and a manual hydraulic press with a pressure of 3 tons. Characterization involved assessing proximate analysis, calorific value, physical and mechanical properties, and Fourier Transform Infrared analysis. The test results were compared with biomass pellet standards from Indonesia, Japan, Korea, and Germany. Results indicate that bark affects several properties, with higher ash content observed in pellets with bark due to the higher mineral content in bark. Volatile matter decreases with finer particle size, influencing combustion rate. Moisture content is higher in pellets with bark, impacting combustion efficiency and smoke production. Fixed carbon values are influenced by moisture and volatile matter content. Calorific values are generally higher in pellets without bark and smaller particle sizes. Density and compressive strength increase with decreasing particle size. FTIR analysis reveals differences in functional groups between pellets with and without bark, indicating variations in chemical composition. Overall, this research provides insight into the potential of calliandra biomass pellets with bark and without bark along with particle size as a renewable energy source.

Abstract

Sengon (Falcataria moluccana) is a fast-growing species widely planted in Industrial Plantation Forests (IPF/HTI) and has high economic value. The provision of planting material must be well prepared and planned to get the appropriate nursery planting media composition. The Empty Palm Oil Bunches (EFB) biochar application improves soil's chemical and physical properties to provide nutrients for plants. This study aims to determine the effect of the application of EFB biochar on the growth of sengon roots. The experimental design was completely randomized (CRD) by applying four treatment levels and 20 repetitions. The treatments were (A) 100% soil (control), (B) 5% EFB biochar, (C) 10% EFB biochar, and (D) 15% EFB biochar. The data were then analyzed by analysis of variance to see the effect of the treatment on the observed root growth parameters, followed by the 5% Least Significant Difference (LSD) further test to determine differences between treatments. The parameters observed were root length, root volume, root wet weight, and root dry weight. The result showed that the application of EFB biochar increased the growth of sengon roots compared to the control. The greater the dose of the addition of EFB biochar given to the growing media, the more it showed a positive response in improving the growth of sengon roots. In this study, the 15% dose showed the best results compared to other treatments.

Abstract

Community forests provide benefits to their functions and roles in meeting community needs and environmental sustainability based on economic, social, and ecological perspectives. Social indicators play this role in the sustainability of community forest health. This study aims to obtain a weighted value (quality assurance) of social indicators in assessing the health of community forests. The stages of research carried out included, among others, conducting interviews with questionnaire instruments with respondents, determining the priority scale with the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, and determining eigenvalues with the Analytic Networking Process (ANP) method. Based on the results of the study, four social indicators can describe the health condition of community forests: education indicators, employment indicators, participation indicators, and institutional indicators. These indicators have the same level of importance, where the eigenvalues obtained do not have significant differences. It means that community forest farmers have realized that social indicators can support environmental sustainability in aspects of forest health. Thus, the weighted values obtained by social indicators from the highest to the lowest are indicator participation (0.29), education indicator (0.27), institutional indicator (0.23), and employment indicator (0.21). The formation of farmer groups needs to be done to improve local institutions. Therefore, they can support community forest management regulations

Abstract

Sengon (Paraserianthes falcataria) wood is used for various purposes, including furniture, plywood, pallets, and building materials. Consumer demand for decorative wood is increasing, so innovation is needed to make it more productive and efficient. A laser cutting machine is one of the alternatives to answer this problem. Because CO2 gas wavelength and energy density offer the highest cutting quality, CO2 lasers are appropriate for wood processing. This study aims to determine the effect of laser power intensity and cutting speed on cutting plywood to get the best results. The plywood used has a thickness of 12 mm. The laser intensities used were 30 Watt, 35 Watt, 40 Watt, 45 Watt, and 50 Watt with cutting speeds of 2 mm/s, 4 mm/s, 6 mm/s, and 8 mm/s, with nozzle standoff distance set to 10 mm. In each repetition on the same sheet determine the comparison or variation of each variable used. Based on the measurement results, the highest width was obtained at 50 Watt power and 2 mm/s speed, and the lowest at 35 Watt power and 8 mm/s. The highest depth was 50 Watt and 2 mm/s, and the lowest was 30 Watts and 4 mm/s. The overall color change (∆E*) increased with increasing laser power. The higher the laser power, the more the color change increases. The change in ∆E* decreased as the laser speed increased. The optimization of cutting sengon plywood with CO2 laser using RSM method resulted in an optimum combination at 40 Watt laser power and 8 mm/s speed with a desirability value of 0.623

Abstract

Kegiatan pertambangan baik dengan izin maupun pertambangan tanpa izin dapat memberikan dampak buruk bagi lingkungan sekitar sehingga perlu dilakukan upaya pengolahan tailing dengan cara revegetasi ataupun pemanfaatan tailing sebagai media tanam. Biochar menjadi salah satu alternatif bahan pembenah tanah yang dapat digunakan pada lahan purna tambang. Penerapan biochar memiliki potensi untuk meningkatkan kapasitas tanah untuk menyimpan hara dan udara, mengurangi penguapan udara dari tanah, meningkatkan kegemburan tanah, dan mencegah munculnya penyakit tanaman tertentu. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengetahui bagaimana dosis biochar berpengaruh terhadap pertumbuhan mahoni yang ditanam pada media tanam tailing. Mahoni ditanam selama 5 bulan menggunakan rencana acak lengkap (RAL) dengan perlakuan yaitu pemberian biochar pada media tanam tercemar tailing emas. Parameter yang diamati antara lain yaitu pertambahan tinggi batang, diameter batang, luas daun, dan panjang akar. Analisis data menggunakan analisis ragam dan uji BNT. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa perlakuan dosis biochar pada media tailing berpengaruh sangat nyata pada parameter pertambahan tinggi dan juga diameter batang mahoni. Semakin tinggi dosis biochar yang diberikan pada media tailing cenderung meningkatkan pertumbuhan tanaman mahoni.

Abstract

Biopellets from gamal wood (Gliricidia sepium) as a biomass energy resource could be an alternative to replace fossil fuels due to having met standards based on moisture content, ash content, fixed carbon, calorific value, and density. Unfortunately, they still had high levels of volatile matter. Robusta coffee husk was a material with high nitrogen content, which is suspected of being able to bind aromatic substances in volatile organic compounds. This study aims to evaluate the quality of biopellets and determine the optimum composition of the biopellets from gamal wood and coffee husk. The blended composition of gamal wood and coffee husk biopellets studied were 100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, and 0:100. The biopellets were manufactured using the material size of 40-60 mesh with a pressure of 173.51 MPa. The best biopellet was produced in the composition of 75% gamal wood and 25% coffee husk, with a density of 0.85 g/cm3, moisture content of 8.03%, ash content of 3.92%, volatile substances of 78.01%, fixed carbon of 18.07%, and calorific value of 4,176 cal/g. The biopellet quality met the standards of SNI 8021:2014 and EN 14061-2, except for ash content. Adding coffee husk reduced gamal wood biopellet’s volatile matter, increasing the fixed carbon and density of gamal wood biopellets.

Abstract

Biodiversity and local wisdom in mangrove ethnopharmacology are essential to study as a basis for conservation and health development. The study objectives were determining mangroves’ diversity and distribution, their use as herbal medicine, and their trusted medical properties. Vegetation analysis was employed to study the mangrove diversity. An interview and observation were conducted to study mangrove utilization. Mangrove diversity was determined by examining the diversity index. Mangrove utilization was determined by descriptive comparative analysis and calculating species use value, plant part value, and fidelity level. Total 28 species of mangroves from 15 families in Lampung. The highest mangrove diversity is in Lampung Timur (22 species; Shannon Index (H') = 1.93), followed by Pesawaran (21 species; H' = 1.96), Tulang Bawang (12 species; H' = 1.24), and Lampung Selatan (11 species H' = 0.90). Surprisingly, a species was used for different purposes in different areas. S. caeseolaris has the highest species use value of 0.1591. Leaves have the highest plant part value of 58%. R. apiculata, as an antiseptic, and S. caseolaris, as an antioxidant, have the highest fidelity level, 14%. Eight mangrove species trusted by the community have ten medical properties. This finding could be the basis for scientific studies to find new sources of medicine. Keywords: biodiversity, costal area, ethnopharmacology, herbal medicine, mangrove
