Abstract

Separation technique by membrane technology has been widely applied for separation and purification of minor  components from vegetable oil. Membrane was prepared and modified in several way in order to improve the filtration performance in purification process of vegetable oil. In this work, the filtration performance of three types of polyethersulfone hollow fiber membrane was investigated. The main objective of this research was to study the effect of membranes type on the filtration performance of tocopherol solution. Three series of filtration experiment were conducted by using fabricated membrane by dissolving of polyethersulfone (PES) in N-methyl pyrrolydone (NMP) with different polymer composition. The membranes was M1 = PES 20 % + NMP, M2 = PES 18 % + NMP, and M3= PES 20 %+ Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP 5 %) + NMP.  The difference structure of membrans was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy measurement. The permeability profile of tocopherol solution of 500 ppm was observed by using a single module of hollow fiber membrane with filtration flow of pressure driven inside (PDI). It is shown that, the permeability of tocopherol solution was maximum and stable using PES membrane was composed by M3 system. Moreover, the improvement of tocopherol concentration in retentate solution was about two times higher than that the original solution that was obtained from filtration system of M1 membrane.ABSTRAKTeknik separasi dengan membran teknologi telah diaplikasikan secara luas untuk pemisahan dan pemurnian komponen minor dari minyak tumbuh-tumbuhan.

Abstract

In membrane preparation process via phase inversion method, the morphology of fabricated membranes are determined by composition and concentration of polymer, solvent, and non-solvent. The basic knowledge of the appropriate composition of those components are needed by cloud point experiment. In this work, the study on cloud point experiment have been done to investigate the solidification process of polymer system of polyethersulfone (PES) and 2-(methacryloyloxy) ethyl phosphoryl chloline (MPC) in N-methyl-2-pirrolidon (NMP) via phase inversion technique. Hydrofilik polymer MPC were used as a membrane modifying agent (MMA) in order to modify the surface property of fabricated membrane. In sum, addition of PVP and MPC into polymer solution brought about reducing amount of non-solvent necessary to obtain the cloud point of solution.

Abstract

Free radicals are one of the factors that cause skin problems. Excessive exposure to free radicals can trigger aging, such as sagging of the skin of the lower eyelids which causes a decrease in the periorbital area, known as “eyelid bags”. Changes in the extracellular matrix and loss of the structurally important proteins collagen and elastin lead to loss of structural support and elasticity. Free radical reactions can be prevented by using eye cream. Eye cream is made to get rid of puffiness or dark circles under the eyes. Eye cream is made from a light, easy-to-absorb formula and contains vitamin C, vitamin E and vitamin K which are good for skin care and rejuvenation. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of the Gayo avocado oil eyecream formulation with the addition of patchouli leaf essential oil. The method used is experimental from the results of research that has been done before. Then three stages of testing were carried out, namely irritation test, organoleptic test and characteristic observation test. Then, for the test results, a comparison of the first and second formulations was carried out to determine which eye cream is suitable for use as a beauty product

Abstract

Plastic debris is one of the serious problems in urban cities, including Banda Aceh city and Aceh Besar district, Indonesia. This waste is degraded into a small particle called microplastics. This waste has the potential to pollute the waters in the coastal area. The objective of the present study was to analyse the microplastic contamination of the sea surface waters of Banda Aceh City and Aceh Besar District. Sea surface water was sampled from three locations, namely Gampong Jawa (Station 1), Alue Naga (Station 2), and Krueng Raya (Station 3) during January to March 2024. The results showed that there were four forms of microplastics found in the sea surface water sample, namely fragments, fibers, films, and pellets with nine colours, namely black, brown, blue, clear, red, yellow, green, pink, and purple. The fragments and black are the dominant form and colour of microplastic in the sea surface water of Banda Aceh city. The highest number of microplastic particles was found in Alue Naga waters (21.04 particles/L) and the least in Gampong Jawa waters (16.6 particles/L). Therefore, it is concluded that the surface of the seawater studied in this study has been contaminated with microplastics.Keywords: Microplastics Sea surface water Plastic waste Banda Aceh City Aceh Besar District

Abstract

Microcrystalline cellulose was first extracted from pineapple crown leaf waste which is used very rarely as an alternative material from agricultural residue and then characterized. Microcrystalline cellulose was extracted from this waste through acid hydrolysis with various concentrations. The effect of acidconcentrations with sulfuric acid (H2SO4) on microcrystalline cellulose properties was investigated to determine its potential application as a material. Pineapple crown leaf was hydrolyzed for 2 hours at 45 along with various sulfuric acid concentrations (1, 2, and 3 M). The properties of the cellulose were evaluated by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transforms infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Among all the hydrolysis conditions carried out, the best hydrolysis condition was 3 M sulfuric acid. At this hydrolysis condition, the microcrystalline cellulose presented a rod-like shape, high crystallinity at 83.16%, and have average crystal size of 17.99 nm. The functional group and morphology analysis showed that the resulted product is maintained cellulose I structure and removal of non-cellulosic constituents and the chemical compositions. As for the thermal analysis, the temperature decreased from 177 (2 M sulfuric acid) to 149 (3 M sulfuric acid) because of the incorporation of sulfate groups after the hydrolysis process. Therefore, microcrystalline cellulose obtained from pineapple crown leaf waste has great potential as reinforcement in the manufacture of composites.

Abstract

Membrane technology has been implemented broadly for clean water treatment. To produce a better membrane, modification is carried out by adding chitosan into a polymer solution. Materials used in this research are polyethersulfone (PES) 18%, the n-methyl pyrrolidone solvent modified with a chitosan solution (at 0.2 1 wt%) as an additive, and deionized water as a non-solvent. The membrane synthesis is carried out with the non-solvent induced phase separation method of blending the polymer. Membrane characterization includes functional group analysis, morphological structure, and water contact angle. Membrane performance is monitored at the filtration process, resulting in the permeability coefficient, and for the rejection of a contaminant (humic acid) with dead-end filtration. Research results show that the modified membrane characterization has an asymmetric morphological structure with a thinner top layer, and the membrane sublayer has a finger-like macrovoid structure with a larger size as compared to the original PES membrane (without the chitosan solution addition). The chitosan additive into the PES membrane improves the membranes hydrophilic property. The highest value of the permeability coefficient is achieved with a 1% chitosan addition, which provides a permeability coefficient value of 10.524 L/m2.h.bar and a rejection coefficient of 70.3%.

Abstract

Kajian penurunan dan rekoveri fluks pada proses ultrafiltrasi larutan natural organic matter (NOM) dengan membran polyethersulfone telah dilakukan. Larutan sodium alginate digunakan sebagai model NOM dalam air, dan profil filtrasinya dipelajari berdasarkan waktu operasi. Proses filtrasi menggunakan modul cross-flow dengan konfigurasi aliran filtrasi pressure driven outside (PDO). Profile permeabilitas larutan SA pada membranpolyethersulfonetelah diamati dengan berbagai perlakuan, diantaranya efek keberadaan ion logam Ca2+ dan Mg2+ serta pengaruh pH larutan (kondisi asam, basa dan netral). Membran polyethersulfone (PES) dengan tambahan Aerosol OT digunakan untuk mengetahui kinerjanya. Flux recovery ratio (FRR) merupakan salah satu indikator untuk mengetahui sifat fouling yang terbentuk pada permukaan membran. Secara umum larutan SA dalam kondisi asam memiliki nilai FRR terkecil, sedangkan sampel dalam kondisi basa memiliki nilai FRR terbesar. Perolehan fluks larutan SA dengan penambahan ion Mg2+ lebih besar dibandingkan dengan penambahan ion Ca2+. Larutan SA pada kondisi pH basa menghasilkan penurunan nilai fluks lebih kecil dibandingkan pada pH Asam dan netral. Rejeksi partikel SA tertinggi diperoleh pada kondisi asam menggunakan membran PES Aerosol OT yaitu sebesar 46,88%.
