Abstract

Heavy metals are known to seriously injure land plants and animals, including humans, as well as marine species when present in contaminated water. For the batch adsorption technique used in this study, Cu(II) ions were removed from an aqueous solution using an inexpensive  environmentally friendly adsorbent prepared from the extracted pectin of ambarella fruit peel. The functional groups of the extracted pectin were studied using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR). Operational conditions like pH, contact time, and initial adsorbate concentration were investigated. FTIR characterization showed that pectin was successfully extracted from ambarella fruit peel with the appearance of the peaks at 3331.36 cm-1, 2924.02 cm-1, 1727.38 cm-1, 1626.20 cm-1, 1329.31cm−1, 1232.43cm−1, 994.18 cm−1 and these peaks have similar characteristic with a commercial pectin. The maximum uptake of Cu(II) ions was obtained at a pH of 4, a contact time of 90 min, an initial metal concentration of 150 ppm. The extracted pectin has an adsorption capacity of 6.5860 mg/g for the removal of Cu(II) ions from aqueous solution under the optimum adsorption conditions. In addition, the data obtained from contacting the extracted pectin of ambarella fruit peel in Batang Arau River water showed an adsorption capacity of 0.0376 mg/g. Therefore, the pectin that was extracted from the peel of the ambarella fruit could be used to filter out Cu(II) ions from aqueous solutions.

Abstract

There has been concealed on the processing of trash fish into animal feed in Nagari Pilubang, Padang Pariaman Regency. The majority of the Pilubang community are fishermen. However, so far the trash fish caught have not been processed properly. Meanwhile, trash fish has the potential to be used as animal feed because it contains high protein. Through this PKM activity, the community receives education and training regarding the application of technology for processing trash fish into animal feed using appropriate technology. The animal feed was made from trash fish is processed using a fermentation process. From the results of this activity, it is known that community knowledge has increased and is very useful for implementation by the community in Nagari Pilubang

Abstract

Glucose is an essential monosaccharide that serves as the main source of energy in the human body. An imbalance in glucose levels in the body can lead to serious metabolic disorders, such as diabetes mellitus. Therefore, effective methods of analyzing and monitoring glucose levels are needed for early detection and more optimal disease management. In this study, a non-enzymatic glucose sensor based on Pencil Lead Electrode (PLE) modified with silver-gold (Ag-Au) bimetallic was developed through electrodeposition method using cyclic voltammetry. This modification aims to improve sensitivity and cost efficiency in glucose detection compared to enzymatic sensors, that are susceptible to denaturation and higher production costs. Electrodeposition is performed in a potential range of 1.6 V to -0.4 V to obtain an optimal bimetallic coating on the PLE surface. The Ag-Au/PLE electrode provided the best electrochemical response in detecting glucose, with oxidation and re-oxidation peaks at +0.01 V in 0.1 M KOH as a supporting electrolyte. The optimal condition was obtained in five electrodeposition cycles, with a correlation coefficient value of 0.9984 and a detection limit of 0.206 mM, indicating high sensitivity and accuracy. These results indicate that Ag-Au/PLE electrodes have great potential as reliable, sensitive and economical non-enzymatic glucose sensors.

Abstract

Pollution of environmental streams and ecosystems is rising. One of the sources of water contamination is the wastewater from the textile, plastics, and mining sectors, which contains both organic and inorganic pollutants. Heavy metals and dyes in wastewater must be treated before disposal to protect the aquatic environment and human health. Due to its effectiveness, low cost, and simplicity of use, biosorption has emerged as a wastewater treatment option. Rambutan waste, in particular, is promising for commercial usage due to its extensive availability and efficiency. In this article, we review the usage of natural rambutan peels, seeds, leaves, and stems for the biosorption of water contaminants. We discuss the factors that influence pollutant removal. A pH of 6 to 12 is advantageous for cationic pollutant removal, whereas a pH of less than 5 is appropriate for anionic pollutant removal. More significant concentrations of pollutants generally result in lesser removal, whereas higher doses of biosorbent result in higher removal. The ideal adsorption contact time for rambutan peels and seeds was less than an hour. We also discuss the isotherms of the adsorption process.
