Abstract

THE EFFECT OF PRETREATMENT OF MICROWAVE HEATING ON EFFICIENCY OF HYDROLYSIS TIME AND α-CELLULOSIC CHARACTERISTICS OF PALM OIL WASTE BIOMASS. This research is underlied by the needs of various industries for alpha cellulose, especially for the needs of raw material for cellulose nanocristalline, from fiber derived from the most potential waste biomass in Indonesia, namely oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) and mesocarp fibers. This study aims to find out the effect of pretreatment by microwave heating on the efficiency of hydrolysis time and alpha cellulose characteristics from palm oil waste biomass. To produce alpha cellulose, acid hydrolysis is commonly used with the multistage pulping process method, where the fiber is dissolved into HNO3 mixed acid, 3.5% and NaNO2, heated at a temperature of 90 oC for 2 hours, hydrolyzed and delignified to remove lignin and bleached, then separated from betha and gamma cellulose by dissolving it with NaOH 17.5%. In this study, a preliminary treatment (pretreatment) with microwave heating was carried out before the fiber was hydrolyzed so that the hydrolysis process was more efficient without reducing the characteristics of the alpha cellulose produced. The research results showed that pretreatment with microwave heating can streamline the hydrolysis time from 2 hours to 1 hour, without reducing its characteristics, where the degree of fiber crystallinity (XRD) and the yield of alpha cellulose remain high. Microwave heating with 450 watts for 5 minutes (treatment A) is better than 300 watts of heating for 10 minutes (treatment B). From the results of the study, it can be concluded that the pretreatment with microwave heating can streamline the hydrolysis time of the fiber to obtain alpha cellulose and increase the yield of the produced alpha cellulose.

Abstract

Pectin has been widely used as a gelling agent, thickener, and stabilizer, especially in the food industry. Pectin is obtained by extracting plant parts such as orange peel. Solvents are needed in the pectin extraction process. Usually, inorganic solvents used, such as HCl and H2SO4, have negative impacts on researchers and the environment. In this study, NADES (Natural Deep Eutectic Solvent) was used with citric acid and sucrose, which are safer and more environmentally friendly. Pre-treatment by pressing was carried out to reduce the water content so that the orange peel could be changed into a simplex and ready to be extracted from its pectin. This study aims to see the effect of pre-treatment pressing temperature and the ratio of materials and volume of NADES on the characteristics of the pectin produced. The results showed that pre-treatment pressing temperature and the ratio of materials and volume of NADES had a significant effect (p <0.05) on the equivalent number, methoxyl content, galacturonic acid content, degree of esterification, and water content.

Abstract

Formulation in making tea is necessary to produce quality products with a distinctive taste and optimal health benefits. Cascara is a dried tea product produced from coffee skin waste. It has been reported to have potential as a natural antioxidant because it contains secondary metabolite compounds such as polyphenols. Dayak onion bulbs are reported to contain flavonoids that are useful for preventing and alleviating complaints due to degenerative diseases such as hypertension and controlling blood sugar levels. Stevia is a plant known as sugar leaves or non-calorie natural sweeteners whose dried leaves have 30 times the sweetness of sucrose. The purpose of this study was to combine coffee fruit skin (cascara), Dayak onion, and stevia in herbal tea formulations to explore health potential and see the effect of differences in cascara, dayak onion, and stevia tea formulations on pH values, moisture content, and ash content according to the Indonesian National Standard (SNI). This study used a Factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The results of this study indicate that the moisture content of herbal tea bags ranges from 9.05%-11.48%, with certain formulations (C, D, E, and F) meeting SNI standards. The ash content of herbal tea bags ranges from 3.58%-7.35%, reflecting the mineral content, with higher stevia concentrations correlating with increased ash content. The pH value of the brewed herbal tea ranges from 4.34-5.12, indicating that higher concentrations of Dayak onion produce higher pH values while increasing stevia concentrations lower pH.

Abstract

This study examines the preparation of bioactive extracts from celery leaves (Apium graveolens L.) and their transformation into nanoparticulate forms for potential application in antiaging formulations. The celery leaves were extracted using the maceration method with 96% ethanol. The phytochemicals of celery extract were examined using a unique reagent, which shows the celery extract contains flavonoids, alkaloid, and triterpenoid. These compounds are usually used as active agents in antiaging creams. We employed the ultrasonication probe-homogenizer to produce nanosized particles of celery extracts. The particle size analyzer data showed that the particle size significantly reduced from 6,757.2 nm (bulk) into nanoparticle when probe homogenization was employed, with average sizes of 583.8 nm (30 minutes homogenization), 219.9 nm (60 minutes homogenization), and 161.7 nm (90 minutes homogenization). These values indicate that within time, the bulk active compound in celery could be used to formulate an antiaging cream for the next applicationContribution to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production
