Abstract

The increasing proportion of elderly individuals globally underscores the need for safe and ergonomic mobility aids that support independent living and enhance quality of life. This study presents a structural analysis of a multifunctional walking cane prototype, NeoMossa, which integrates an umbrella mechanism, aimed at addressing both mobility and environmental protection needs for elderly users. The analysis employed the Finite Element Method (FEM) using SolidWorks simulation software to evaluate the mechanical performance of the cane under static loading conditions of 300 N, 500 N, and 700 N. Key parameters assessed included Von Mises stress, strain, displacement, and factor of safety. The results demonstrated that all measured values remained within acceptable limits, with the highest stress recorded at 75.98 MPa and a minimum safety factor of 1.72 under the maximum load. These findings confirm that the cane structure is capable of withstanding typical user loads without risk of mechanical failure. The study affirms the feasibility of integrating multifunctional features into assistive devices without compromising structural safety, contributing valuable insight to the design and development of innovative mobility aids for the elderly.

Abstract

Abstrak: Dinas Lingkungan Hidup (DLH) Balikpapan memperingatkan bahwa kapasitas Tempat Pemrosesan Akhir Sampah (TPAS) Manggar diperkirakan akan mencapai batas maksimal pada tahun 2026 apabila tidak dilakukan upaya pengelolaan yang lebih optimal. Beberapa cara mengkonversi limbah padat menjadi bahan bakar telah dilakukan untuk mengurangi volume sampah padat yang semakin meningkat. Namun, tidak menunjukkan hasil yang signifikan, sehingga upaya pengolahan sampah padat terus dilakukan. Kegiatan pengabdian masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan kemampuan masyarakat, khususnya komunitas pengelola sampah TPAS Manggar, dengan melatih mereka membuat produk biopellet menggunakan mesin pelletizer yang berbasis sistem penggerak roller. Kegiatan pengabdian dilakukan dengan melibatkan 25 peserta dari komunitas pengelola sampah TPAS Maggar. Kegiatan ini mencakup penyampaian materi teori, yang meliputi sosialisasi mengenai sampah padat, pemilahan sampah, dan manajemen pengolahannya. Selain itu, dilakukan demonstrasi penggunaan alat pelletizer, praktik langsung pembuatan biopellet, serta evaluasi melalui pre-test dan post-test. Dengan menggunakan analisis statistik Paired Two Sample for Means, terdapat peningkatan yang signifikan dalam tingkat pengetahuan serta keterampilan anggota kelompok pelatihan. Perbedaan rerata skor pre-test dan post-test yang secara statistik signifikan mengindikasikan bahwa program pelatihan tersebut memiliki dampak yang positif terhadap kemampuan para peserta. Dengan hasil evaluasi ini, pelatihan serupa diharapkan dapat direplikasi di komunitas lain sebagai upaya peningkatan kesadaran lingkungan dan penerapan teknologi ramah lingkungan dalam pengelolaan sampah.Abstract: The Balikpapan Environmental Agency (DLH) has issued a warning that the Manggar Final Waste Processing Site (TPAS) may reach full capacity by 2026 unless more effective waste management strategies are implemented. Although various methods of converting solid waste into fuel have been attempted to address the growing waste volume, these efforts have yet to produce significant results. Consequently, solid waste processing initiatives remain ongoing.In response, a community service program was initiated to enhance the capabilities of local residents, particularly members of the Manggar TPAS waste management team. This initiative focused on training participants in the production of biopellets using a pelletizer machine equipped with a roller drive system. A total of 20 community members took part in this program. The training included the presentation of theoretical material covering topics such as solid waste management, sorting procedures, and waste processing techniques. It also featured hands-on sessions where participants practiced operating the pelletizer and producing biopellets. To assess the program’s effectiveness, participants underwent pre- and post-training evaluations. Using the Paired Two Sample for Means statistical method, the data revealed a significant improvement in the participants’ knowledge and skills. The measurable increase in average test scores demonstrates the positive impact of the training. Based on these findings, it is advisable to implement similar initiatives in other communities to encourage environmental awareness and the use of sustainable waste management technologies.

Abstract

Limbah cair industri kelapa sawit (palm oil mill effluent atau POME) di Indonesia menghasilkan volume yang tinggi dan berpotensi mencemari lingkungan. Mikroalga dapat dimanfaatkan untuk mengurangi limbah sekaligus menghasilkan produk biomassa yang bernilai tambah. Penelitian ini bertujuan menentukan konsentrasi optimum POME bagi pertumbuhan mikroalga Galdieria sulphuraria 009, mengevaluasi produksi fikosianin, serta menilai aktivitas antioksidannya. Penelitian ini diawali dengan penapisan awal menggunakan 5–50% POME untuk mengidentifikasi kondisi pertumbuhan mikroalga yang optimum; budi daya dalam bioreaktor dengan variasi konsentrasi (2,5; 5,0; dan 7,5%) untuk mengevaluasi kinerja pertumbuhan; dan analisis aktivitas antioksidan serta kandungan pigmen dalam biomassa. Penapisan awal menunjukkan bahwa POME 5% merupakan konsentrasi optimal, sedangkan konsentrasi lebih tinggi menghambat pertumbuhan akibat berkurangnya penetrasi cahaya. Pada budidaya lanjutan, mikroalga dalam POME 2,5% menunjukkan hasil sebanding dengan kontrol (Allen pH 2), sedangkan konsentrasi lebih tinggi menghambat pertumbuhan akibat penaungan dan toksisitas amonia. Produksi fikosianin per volume kultur tertinggi diamati pada mikroalga yang dibudidayakan dalam POME 2,5%, dengan hasil yang sebanding dengan media kontrol. Uji aktivitas antioksidan mengonfirmasi bahwa semua ekstrak fikosianin memiliki aktivitas antioksidan yang signifikan, dengan aktivitas tertinggi pada POME 7,5%. Kandungan karotenoid dan klorofil a dievaluasi dalam biomassa segar dan residu setelah ekstraksi. Karotenoid lebih melimpah dalam biomassa segar, sedangkan klorofil a lebih tinggi dalam residu biomassa. Penelitian ini menunjukkan bahwa G. sulphuraria 009 berpotensi sebagai sumber fikosianin yang layak dalam budidaya berbasis POME, serta memberikan wawasan mengenai pemanfaatan limbah industri dan pengembangan produk bioteknologi berkelanjutan.

Abstract

Since plastic and food waste are both types of non-lignocellulosic biomass, these must be handled and managed correctly to avoid pollution problems and damage to the environment. Bio-oil, made from recycled materials, including plastic and food waste, is one focus of these attempts. The co-pyrolysis method is being investigated in this study as a technique of recycling plastic waste and food waste to produce biofuels with reduced environmental impact. In terms of energy efficiency, bio-oil is unequal to other fuels like coal or natural gas because of its high acidity, high oxygen content, and low thermal stability. Therefore, a vacuum distillation process is required to improve bio-oil quality by adjusting the distillation temperature from 300 to 350 OC and the percentage of plastic waste used from 30 to 50%. The bio-oil was analyzed using a Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer (GC-MS). The general compound showed that acids (60%) and alcohols (20%) were the most prevalent chemical compounds, followed by phenol (4%), aldehyde (14%), aliphatic (5%), Furan (14%), and ketones (11%) at maximum temperature (350 oC) for 30-50% plastic waste. Meanwhile, the final product is affected by temperature and plastic waste (PET) ratio factors. At 350 °C and a plastic waste addition of 50%, the highest bio-oil yield is 45%.
