Abstract

Air pollution generated from airport activities has become public concern and the subject of more rigorous government regulations.  The Airport Operators are stipulated to control the pollution and for the accountability of air quality that might affect public health. The main objective of this study is to establish a model for the distribution of air pollutants and to predict their concentrations generated by the runway and apron operations at Sam Ratulangi International Airport (Manado) until 2024, in accordance with the airport expansion program. The data was collected in the airport surrounding area in 2018, while the climate data over a span of 10 years, from 2009 to 2018, was obtained from Sam Ratulangi Meteorological Station. The modeling on dispersion of air pollutant gases was developed by the Gaussian Plume Equation. The simulation was performed using AERMOD software, and the results visualized by GIS software. AERMOD software was recommended by the US-EPA to predict the impact of air pollutants. The results predicted that the maximum concentrations of NOx; HC; and CO generated by runway activities modeling in 2024 were 250 μg.m-3; 6.4 μg.m-3; and 87 μg.m-3 respectively. The results also predicted that the maximum concentrations of NOx; CO; and PM10 due to apron operational activities in 2024 were 260 μg.m-3; 892 μg.m-3; and 2.5 μg.m-3 respectively. The model predicted that in 2024 the air pollution at Sam Ratulangi International Airport will remain under the limit as defined in Indonesian Government Regulation No. 22 of 2021. To mitigate the future increase in air emissions due to the increase in airport capacity, the recommendation were proposed in the several areas, which were including operation management, technology, policies and airport regulations, as well as the provision of green area.

Abstract

Air quality simulation has been performed for additional capacity of Banten 1 x 600 MW Coal Fired Power Plant toward air quality degradation in its surrounding environment. The simulation was based on pollutant gas dispersion calculated using Gaussian Plume equation. The research has involved climate secondary data on Cengkareng climatology Station for last 10 years. Besides, the primary data has also been taken in 7 point sampling locations to determine initial ambient air quality of existing 1 x 600 MW Coal Fired Power Plant. The data of existing 1 x 600 MW coal fired power plant has been taken from Adipala Steam Power Plant while the gas pollutant dispersion simulation has been done well using Gaussian Plume equation. The result showed that gas emission for NO2, and TSP parameter in all scenarios and SO2 gas parameter in several scenarios were exceeding the Threshold Limit Value. Thus, a technology is needed to minimize produced emission gas. The increase of gas pollutant in all sampling locations was not significantly increasing and those gas pollutants were not generally exceeding the Threshold Limit Value permitted by the government regulation.

Abstract

Analysis of Fe3+ ion present in aqueous solutions is always of interests. Recently, this ion has been analyzed by colorimetric methods using colloid of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in capping agents of polymers. The reaction mechanism between AgNPs and Fe3+ is still subject to the further investigation. In this work, 1,10-phenanthroline was used to probe the reaction mechanism between AgNPs and Fe3+ ion in the solution. The colloids of AgNPs were prepared in the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) solution and reacted with Fe3+. The colloid surface plasmon absorbance decreases linearly along with the increase in Fe3+ concentration. The addition of 1,10-phenanthroline to mixture changes the solution to red, indicating that the reaction produces Fe2+. This suggests that the reduction of the AgNPs absorbance is the result of oxidation of the Ag nanoparticles along with the reduction of Fe3+.

Abstract

The modification of TiO2 using rare earth oxide (La2O3) to increase the photodegradation activity of TiO2 under visible light has been conducted. The goal of this research is to identify the influence of La2O3 on the TiO2 to the photocatalytic activity of TiO2. The mixed oxide of TiO2/La2O3 was prepared using the precipitation method. The as-prepared catalyst was then calcined at 923 K. The photocatalyst was characterized using SRUV, XRD, FTIR, and SEM-EDX. The results showed that the photocatalyst activity of TiO2/La2O3-923 under visible light in the degradation of methylene blue was higher than pristine TiO2. The decrease in bandgap energy of TiO2/La2O3-923 from 3.2 eV to 3.01 eV was not the main factor in the increase of photocatalytic activity of TiO2/La2O3-923. The optimum condition of photodegradation of MB was obtained when the ratio of TiO2/La2O3 was 5, the concentration of MB was 10 ppm, the reaction time was 300 min, and the mass of the photocatalyst was 0.25 g. The reusability of TiO2/La2O3-923 was stable up to 3 sequent runs with the MB photodegradation of more than 90%. The mechanistic study of the mixed oxide TiO2/La2O3 showed that the hydroxyl radical played an important role in its high photocatalytic.
