Polylactid Acid (PLA) is a biodegradable polymer made from natural ingredients so it is safe to use for biomaterials. The purpose of this study was to determine the biodegradation characteristics of the addition of chitosan powder and Hydroxyapatite to PLA. There were 4 variations in this study, namely PLA 100 (pure PLA), PLA-chitosan-Hydroxyapatite 94-3-3 (Composite 1), PLA-chitosan-Hydroxyapatite 94-0-6 (Composite 2), PLA-chitosan-Hydroxyapatite 94-6-0 (Composite 3). Samples were prepared using the extrusion method to form filaments, then the filaments were injected with a temperature of 170-190°C and an injection pressure of 5-6 bar. Characterization was carried out using the Immerse Test, FTIR Test, and SEM-EDS Test. The results of the Immerse Test showed an increase in sample mass of 1.04%, 1.1%, 1.05% and 1.14% respectively. FTIR test results did not show any new functional groups in the composite. The results of the SEM test indicated the presence of Na and Cl deposits on the sample surface as evidenced by the results of the EDS test that all samples contained Na and Cl elements. So that the weight gain occurs because the three materials are not chemically mixed which easily separate and cause cavities, these cavities are filled with HBSS liquid.

Water electrolysis promises the capability to produce green hydrogen in the future. The efficiency and hydrogen evolution reaction rate (HER) of water electrolysis can be improved through magnetic field assisted electrolysis. External magnetic field exposure improves hydrogen production without requiring complex catalyst synthesis technique. The purpose of this study is to introduce chaos into a magnetic field assisted electrolysis system which disturbs the water molecules stability. The chaos effect was triggered by irregular flux reflection technique. The flux reflection was generated using diamagnetic tourmaline stones which sticked all over the electrolyzer wall. Consequently, the rotational speed of DMF does not reduce the effectiveness of chaotic flux. As a result, the hydrogen bond of the water molecules is destabilized irregularly. In conjuction with that, the bonds are unable to be reformed which make the water molecules continuously in movement. The critical effect of chaotic flux is the shear force that experienced by water molecules. The paramagnetic OH- ion movement is also slowed down so that H+ ion and electrons interaction were occurred in less restrictive manner. Hence, the chaotic magnetic field able to improve HER. The chaotic flux reflection improves hydrogen production in magnetic field assisted water electrolysis through water properties and ion transfer mechanism modification.

Rice husk is a type of agricultural waste that generated from rice production activities. The number continues to increase in line with the increasing food needs of the people in Indonesia. This study aims to determine the effect of the addition of natural zeolite as a catalyst and to determine the effect of natural zeolite mass percentage variation in the mixture on rice husk waste catalytic combustion by using the thermo gravimetric analysis method. The results of this study show that there is an effect of adding natural zeolite catalysts with the mass percentage of natural zeolite variations on the combustion characteristics and activation energy of each mixture. Increasing the mass percentage of natural zeolite catalysts can affect the reaction process become faster and minimize the effort required, but it was found that if the amount of natural zeolite catalyst is too much, it only adds to the heating load which causes slower reaction. The mixture of rice husks with 10% natural zeolite catalyst is the most optimal mixture because it has the lowest required activation energy value and the combustion reaction phases are achieved at a lower temperature than 5% and 15% mass percentage variations.

The technology of paint and its application develop fast, driven by the increasing cost of energy, raw material and labors. In this study, paint was used as a corrosion inhibitor on the surface of API 5L while saltwater is used as the corrosive media. The coating was varied for three different cases, i.e. primary coating only, primary and color coating as well as primary, color and glossy coating. Meanwhile, surface roughness was varied for 0.6, 0.7 and 0.8 μm. It is concluded that surface roughness and coating influence the corrosion rate. Smoother the surface and more coating layers lower the corrosion rate. Based on the study on API 5L steel, the lowest corrosion rate was obtained at 0.6 μm with 3 paint coatings (primary, color paint and clear/gloss)

Water electrolysis is a method that utilizes direct electric current to decompose water into O2 and H2. The productivity of hydrogen produced in the electrolysis of water is low. One of the main reasons for the low electrolysis efficiency of water is the resistance of the electrode material. The electrode that is often used in the electrolysis of water is a graphite electrode. The coating on graphite electrodes can be a solution to minimize material degradation at the electrodes. With the condition that the coating material is able to slow down the damage to graphite electrodes and is a good electrical conductor. In this study, we used polycarbonate material as a material for coating the electrodes. The polycarbonate material that will be used is obtained from electrical waste, namely CD-R. The polycarbonate was separated mechanically and then ground to a powder with a size of 400 m. Polycarbonate powder will be coated on the cathode surface by the thermal coating method. Polycarbonate contains Bisphenol A compound which has an aromatic ring. The presence of a magnetic field caused by the delocalization of electrons in aromatic compounds will affect the hydrogen bonding in water. The positively charged surface charge of Bisphenol-A-Polycarbonate is able to reduce the acidity of the solution and accelerate the decomposition reactions of H2 and O2 by the water electrolysis method. Bisphenol-A-Polycarbonate coating is a good inhibitor for graphite electrodes. Coated graphite electrodes have a lower corrosion rate than pure or uncoated graphite electrodes. The layer inhibits the degradation of the material caused by electrochemical events during the water electrolysis process. Bisphenol-A-Polycarbonate (BPA) layer, which acts as an inhibitor and a catalyst simultaneously during the water electrolysis reaction, causes hydrogen production to increase.

In producing hydrogen, various methods can be used, one of which is the electrolysis of water. Electrolysis is a method for breaking water molecules into oxygen and hydrogen by using an electric current. Electrolysis does not require complicated equipment and systems, so it can be said to be the easiest method of producing hydrogen. But of the various methods for producing hydrogen, the electrolysis method is not widely used because of its low efficiency. Because of this, many efforts have been made with the aim of increasing hydrogen production in the electrolysis of water. In this paper, we use Bisphenol-A-Polycarbonate (BPA) compounds obtained from unused CD-R layers. BPA has aromatic compounds that have been tested by FTIR. Aromatic compounds can generate their own magnetic field; this magnetic field is used to disrupt hydrogen bonds in water so that the electrolysis process can be more optimal. It is also known that, on the surface of BPA, it has a tendency to be positively charged by FESEM testing. The predominantly positive BPA surface works effectively to attract OH- ions. This causes a lot of H+ ions to move freely so that the solution becomes more acidic, which results in easier mobility of electric currents. With the addition of 3 grams of BPA, it can produce 46% more ppm of hydrogen than conventional.

This study explores the prediction of Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) performance in Dynamic Magnetic Field (DMF) assisted water electrolysis using Artificial Neural Networks (ANN). The integration of ANN models with experimental data from DMF-assisted electrolysis provides valuable insights into the complex interplay between magnetic fields and electrochemical processes. The results show significant enhancements in HER rates compared to conventional electrolysis, with static magnetic fields also contributing to performance improvements. The ANN models developed exhibit high accuracy in predicting HER performance under varying DMF rotational speeds, as evidenced by low Mean Squared Error (MSE), Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), and high R-squared values, demonstrating their strong predictive power and reliability. However, caution is advised regarding overfitting, and future research should focus on incorporating techniques like regularization and cross-validation to enhance model generalization. This study lays the foundation for further optimization of efficient hydrogen production technologies in the context of sustainable energy solutions.
