Abstract

Permasalahan polutan dan kondisi lingkungan seperti cahaya, kelembaban, sinar matahari dapat merusak dan memperpendek usia bangunan yang tersusun oleh bebatuan. Dengan demikian, perlu adanya teknologi self cleaning untuk melindungi bangunan dari kerusakan. Dalam penelitian ini, digunakan MTMS-nanosilika-nanotitania sebagai material self cleaning superhidrofobik yang dilapiskan pada batu andesit. Nanotitania disintesis menggunakan metode sol gel. Nanosilika disintesis menggunakan metode Stöber. Metiltrimetoksisilan (MTMS) ditambahkan sebagai coupling agent dan agen hidrofobik. Metode pelapisan yang digunakan adalah dip coating. Karakterisasi nanotitaniadan nanosilika hasil sintesis dilakukan menggunakan X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) dan Particle Size Analyzer  (PSA). Batu andesit yang terlapisi di uji sudut kontak, dikarakterisasi menggunakan Spektroskopi Infra Merah (FTIR) dan Vickers, serta diuji kemampuan self cleaning. Penelitian menggunakan komposisi nanosilika/nanotitania 7:3 dan dengan waktu perendaman selama 5 menit. Kondisi optimum yang diperoleh untuk uji self cleaning adalah MTMS-nanosilika-nanotitaniakarena menghasilkan sifat superhidrofobik pada permukaan batu dengan sudut kontak 169,76˚. Batu andesit yang dilapisi MTMS-nanosilika-nanotitaniamemiliki kemampuan self cleaning dengan mendegradasi methyl orange sebesar 91,46%.

Abstract

Community empowerment and household waste processing are two issues that need to be resolved by the government. An independent and educated society is an important pillar to support the development of country. Meanwhile, waste that continues to accumulate without processing has a negative impact on health and the environment. Public education about household waste processing can be a solution to the two problems above. Education was carried out at Junior High School YBPK Surabaya and residents of Dukuh Kupang Surabaya, and other participants who joined in a hibrid meeting with a total of 116 participants. Activities at YBPK Surabaya took place on 25 March and 5 August 2023 and activities at Dukuh Kupang Surabaya took place on 27 May and 26 August 2023. The types of waste processed are organic waste and used cooking oil, which are then converted into eco-enzymes and used cooking oil Activities are divided into 2 stages. there are community education activities and program sustainability monitoring activities. The community education activities includes presentation and workshop were hold in March 2023 at YBPK Surabaya Middle School and May 2023 at Dukuh Kupang Surabaya. The evaluation of sustainability program including individual practice and monitoring of activities was carried out in August 2023 at Dukuh Kupang Surabaya. Methods for implementing activities include presentation, practice accompanied by a mentor, individual practice, and monitoring program sustainability. Based on the analysis of participants' ability, the participant scores before and after the activity was increase. It means that this training succeeded in increasing participants' knowledge and skills in processing waste, especially organic waste and used cooking oil waste. A total of 72 out of 116 participants (62%) had processed household waste either individually or in groups. Activity evaluation data shows that these activities are necessary and on target to create an independent and creative society.

Abstract

Carbon paste electrode-modified imprinted zeolite X has been developed as a potentiometry and voltammetry sensor to monitor cholesterol levels in the body. This is crucial to detect early health risks caused by high cholesterol levels. The modified electrode was fabricated with a mass ratio of activated carbon, paraffin, and imprinted zeolite X of 12:7:1. Potentiometric measurement produced a linear dynamic range of 10−6–10−3 M, Nernst factor of 27.12 mV/decade, a detection limit of 1.12 × 10−6 M, precision of 99.7% (n = 3), and accuracy of 99.8% (n = 5). Using the electrode for up to 56 measurements over 6 weeks did not significantly decrease its performance. The presence of glucose did not interfere with cholesterol analysis by potentiometry. The modified electrode was applied to analyze cholesterol voltammetrically at the optimum deposition potential of 0.4 V, deposition time of 60 s, and a scan rate of 100 mV/s. Voltammetric analysis of cholesterol resulted in a detection limit of 7.2 mg/L (1.86 µM), precision of 96–99%, accuracy of 74–114%, sensitivity of 7.1 nA.L/mg/cm2, and recovery of 87.2% (n = 3). The glucose and urea in various concentrations cause less than 5% current deviations.

Abstract

Superhydrophobic silica coatings have gained enormous attention due to their significant contribution to self-cleaning, anti-fouling, anti-icing, anti-corrosion, and moisture-resistance. This mini-review provides an overview of silica surface modification, including functionalization, roughness control, and deposition methods. Functionalization aims to reach hydrophobic properties by the application of low surface energy compounds. Surface roughness control at the micro- and nano-scale across different scales also results in various surface topographies. The type of deposition technique also influences the coating surface properties, including roughness texture, adhesion, and coating thickness. This paper also explains the challenges and gaps of research rarely reported by previous studies, such as the stability of coating in harsh environments, scalability, cost-effectiveness, and sustainability. Furthermore, this article also addresses promising future innovations in developing long-lasting coatings, multifunctional properties, and economic points of view.

Abstract

The coastal community of Sine Beach, Kalibatur Village, Tulungagung, Indonesia, has long thrived on fishing activities. In response to this, a community development service explores the alternative utilization of coconut, particularly the production of Virgin Coconut Oil (VCO), as a means of economic diversification. By integrating scientific principles with local traditions, the community learned to extract VCO and create various coconut-based products. This initiative not only broadened economic horizons but also fostered environmental sustainability. The programs aims to give economic impact to residents in Pantai Sine Tulungagung.
