Abstract

The aim of this research is to formulate activated carbon monolith from hazardous waste of cigarette filter butts (CFB) for electrode material monolith design in solid-state supercapacitor application. Potassium hydroxide (KOH) was selected for activation. The ratio of CFB to KOH varied in terms of weight between 1:2 and 1:4, thereby obtaining activated cigarette filter carbon (ACFC). The carbon that has been obtained is designed to be solidly in the form of an additive-free monolith. Monolith-activated carbon is physically characterized to examine thermal decomposition profiles (pre-carbonized), structure, composition, morphology, surface area adsorption, and electrochemical measurements. The optimum precursor was marked with high wettability with self-O-doped of 5.44%.in carbon content of 94.56%. Activated carbon electrodes prepared from ACFCs showed an optimum specific capacitance of ~87.17 F g-1, which is a more ecologically responsible method of producing supercapacitors.

Abstract

The biosynthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO) is extensively studied because of its eco-friendly and simple method. Piper ornatum is abundant in Indonesia, and the phytochemical content of Piper ornatum leaves has the potential to be a reductor. The study aims to study the role of Piper ornatum in biosynthesis and the characteristics of the zinc oxide nanoparticles. The sample variations in this study were the volume of Piper ornatum and the precursor solution of zinc nitrate hexahydrate Zn(NO3)2·6H2O in proportions of 1:1, 1:5, and 1:10. Characterizations performed include UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscope and blue methylene degradation test. UV-Vis spectroscopy of all samples showed peak absorption at the interval of 250 – 330 nm, which indicates that ZnO nanoparticles have already formed. The results of characterization using XRD indicated the degree of crystallinity of the ZnO nanoparticles is not perfect because the crystal field (100) or the highest diffraction peak has a very large full width at half maximum value of 0.8187°. Characterization results using SEM indicate an inhomogeneous morphology and the presence of zinc oxide nanoparticle agglomeration where particle size distribution is at an interval of 170 – 758 nm.

Abstract

Environmentally friendly synthesis of barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticles was conducted using natural leaf extracts of Moringa oleifera, Musa spp., Pometia pinnata, and Terminalia catappa as green dopants via the sol-gel method. This study aims to evaluate the influence of different leaf extracts on the optical properties of BaTiO3 characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy. Each sample exhibited distinct absorption spectra, reflecting variations in phytochemical composition among the extracts. The results showed that Terminalia catappa and Pometia pinnata extracts produced the highest band gap values, 3.36 eV and 3.35 eV respectively, indicating optical activity in the ultraviolet region. Musa spp. extract resulted in a band gap of 2.81 eV, while Moringa oleifera extract yielded the lowest value of 2.59 eV. These differences suggest that the type of plant extract significantly affects the optical characteristics of the synthesized BaTiO3. This research highlights the potential use of local biomass in the development of functional BaTiO3-based materials through green synthesis approaches.
