Abstract

The aim of this research was to investigate the influence of catalyst on the flash point, viscosity, density, and iodine value of biodiesel. The raw material used in biodiesel production was waste cooking oil. The transesterification process was employed by reacting the catalyst and methanol, followed by mixing them with the waste cooking oil simultaneously. The catalyst concentration variations used in this study were 0.25% and 0.5%. The resulting transesterification mixture was left to settle for approximately 10 minutes. The biodiesel and glycerol were separated after settling, and the biodiesel was washed with distilled water at a temperature of 50°C and then evaporated at 100°C. The flash point test results for catalyst concentrations of 0.25% and 0.5% were 58°C and 48.5°C, respectively. The viscosity test results for catalyst concentrations of 0.25% and 0.5% were 4.567 x 10-6 m2/s and 4.625 x 10-6 m2/s, respectively. The density test results for catalyst concentrations of 0.25% and 0.5% were 889 kg/m3 and 888.3 kg/m3, respectively. The iodine value test results for catalyst concentrations of 0.25% and 0.5% were 112.2 g I2/100g and 114 g I2/100g, respectively. Based on the test data, the flash point, viscosity, density, and iodine value were obtained. The test results indicated that the flash point values from both experiments did not meet the biodiesel quality standards. However, the viscosity and density test results from both experiments met the biodiesel quality standards and were suitable for use. Regarding the iodine value test, the characteristics of the biodiesel from both experiments did not fully meet the biodiesel standard, although the results obtained were not significantly different from the quality standards set by the Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources

Abstract

A hydroelectric power plant (PLTA) uses the flow of water as a source of energy. Evaluating the output of hydropower facilities, including the optimal height of the waterfall, turbine torque, electrical power, generator power, and generated efficiency, was the aim of the study. This study intends to investigate the power, torque, and efficiency that may be produced by a hydroelectric power plant with a whirlpool-type turbine, as well as how the height of falling water influences the operation of the plant. The experiment in this study measures three different waterfall heights with five different blade configurations. The study on the hydropower prototype involved three trials that collected data on torque, power, efficiency, waterfall height, and water discharge. The PLTA Prototype's best potential head in Test 3 was determined to be 0.01143, with a height of 0.67 meters, no sluice, and a diameter of 0.0625 meters. The lowest water outflow was discovered at a head of 0.55 meters with a water debit of 0.01036. The third attempt, which featured a sluice opening with a diameter of 0.0625 meters and a height of 0.67 meters (head), used the most water power in the experiment. The testing yielded the following results: 75.13 watts of water power, 5.16 watts of generator power, 0.233 N.m. of torque, 2.63 watts of turbine power with a generator load 3.73 watts without one, and 6.87% efficiency. Data gathered from the hydropower prototype's operation can be used to construct testing instruments for use in laboratories

Abstract

The scarcity of fossil fuels, environmental concerns, and the sharp rise in fossil fuel prices have driven scientists to search for alternative fuels. The characteristics of biodiesel have made the quest for high-quality biodiesel production particularly appealing. The use of waste cooking oil is a key component in reducing biodiesel production costs by 60-90%. Researchers have employed various types of transesterification reactions with both homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts for biodiesel production; in this study, a 0.5% NaOH catalyst is used. The objectives of this study are to produce biodiesel fuel based on waste cooking oil, evaluate the impact of reaction time variation on the oxidation value and acid value of biodiesel produced from waste cooking oil, and statistically test the effects of reaction time on the oxidation value and acid value of biodiesel produced from waste cooking oil using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The optimum yield was obtained at a reaction time of 90 minutes, achieving 97%. The results for acid number and oxidation value for various reaction times complied with ASTM, EN, and SNI standards. Linear regression analysis of ANOVA for the acid number concluded that the P-value t3 is 0.399, which is greater than Alpha = 0.05, indicating that the variation in reaction time does not have a significant effect on the acid number. Linear regression analysis of ANOVA for the oxidation number concluded that the P-value t3 is less than Alpha (0.047 < 0.05), indicating that reaction time has a significant effect on the oxidation number.

Abstract

This Community Service activity addresses sheep manure waste issues at Umroh Farm, Patumbak Village, Deli Serdang. Waste buildup causes odor and environmental pollution despite its potential as biogas material. The solution was implementing appropriate technology by constructing a household-scale biogas reactor. Activities included participatory training, equipment assembly, and field trials. The digester, with a ±200-liter capacity, was made from plastic drums and equipped with input-output, cleaning, and gas collection lines. The implementation produced an average of 0.015 m³ of biogas per hour, with fire ignition lasting 1–2 seconds. The program reduced livestock waste, improved farmers’ awareness and skills and supported clean energy and climate change mitigation goals. Its success shows that simple biogas technology can provide an integrated solution for environmental management and community empowerment.

Abstract

Bipolar plate is a key component that determines a fuel cell's performance and service life. Carbon-based polymer composite materials were developed as lightweight, easy-to-process alternatives to metal. The use of carbon-based fillers in polymer composites has grown rapidly as an alternative to bipolar plate materials in fuel cell applications, especially to meet performance targets set by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). DOE requires high electrical conductivity (≥100 S/cm in the in-plane direction and ≥10 S/cm in the through-plane direction), low density, adequate mechanical strength, and good corrosion resistance and chemical stability. Recent studies have shown that the addition of carbon fillers, such as graphite, carbon black, graphene, and activated carbon (AC), can increase electrical conductivity by forming conductive percolation networks in polymer matrices. This study evaluates the potential of AC from household waste in the form of coconut shells as fillers in polypropylene (PP) composites for bipolar plate applications. AC is synthesized through carbonization and activation processes, then mixed into a PP matrix with PP/AC compositions of 100/0, 90/10, 80/20, and 70/30 percent by weight. The focus of the study is the effect of composition variation on density and bending strength. The test results show that increasing the AC fraction tends to decrease the composite density. The maximum density was obtained at a 90/10 (by weight) PP/AC composition of 0.9 g/cm³, indicating more effective filling of the pore matrix by AC particles. On the other hand, bending strength shows a downward trend. The maximum flexural strength is achieved at an AC composition of 34.58 MPa at 10% weight, indicating optimal dispersion and stress transfer between the matrix and the filler. The addition of AC above the composition causes a decrease in bending strength due to potential particle agglomeration, cavities, and the limited mobility of polymer chains. Electrical conductivity tends to increase with the addition of AC due to the formation of a network of electrical currents between carbon particles within cavities, reaching a maximum of 5 S/cm at 30% by weight of AC. The electrical conductivity obtained showed better improvement than several research results on polymeric materials using the hot-press method, with a value of 1.7 S/cm, using graphite filler materials up to 60% by weight. These findings confirm that AC from coconut shells has the potential to serve as a sustainable filler for fuel cell bipolar plates, with an optimal composition that balances density and mechanical properties.

Abstract

This study aims to optimize biodiesel production from waste cooking oil using ultrasonic technology combined with Response Surface Methodology (RSM). The investigated variables include the methanol-to-oil molar ratio (6–12), alkaline catalyst concentration (1–3 wt%), and ultrasonic reaction time (480–1440 s). Based on 17 experimental runs, a two-factor interaction (2FI) linear regression model was developed. ANOVA results indicate that all variables significantly affect biodiesel yield (p < 0.05), with catalyst concentration as the most influential factor. The model demonstrates high predictive accuracy (R² = 0.937; adjusted R² = 0.900; MAE = 2.24%; RMSE = 2.84%). Optimization results indicate optimal conditions at a methanol-to-oil ratio of 10.96, a catalyst concentration of 1.03 wt%, and a reaction time of 1414.79 s, yielding 96.84% FAME. Ultrasonic technology effectively enhances mixing and accelerates reactions via cavitation. This study provides practical operational guidance to improve the efficiency of sustainable biodiesel production and support carbon emission reduction.

Abstract

This study aims to this study was to examine the effect of polypropylene (PP) plastic and activated carbon (AC) composition in a plastic composite material. The composite material was mixed using an internal mixer at a processing temperature of 220°C and a speed of 50 rpm. The mixture was then molded with dimensions of 100 mm in length, 15 mm in width, and 2,5 mm in thickness. The sample molding was performed using a compression molding method with a pressure of 1500 MPa at 250°C and a holding time of 300 minutes. Subsequently, the samples were cut according to the bending test dimensions following ASTM D790-03 standards, with dimensions of 100 mm x 12.7 mm x 2.5 mm. The test results for the polypropylene-activated carbon composite in the first composition showed a maximum stress point of 36.95 MPa and an elastic modulus of 4.3096 MPa, while the second composition showed a maximum stress point of 34.58 MPa and an elastic modulus of 3.371 MPa. These findings indicate that increasing the activated carbon composition in polypropylene polymer results in a reduction in bending strength.

Abstract

In general, every livestock needs feed in the form of a mixture of livestock feed. The livestock feed fermentation process is currently phenomenal because it provides benefits that are felt by farmers. Maybe many people know the fermentation as a process of making supplement drinks only. It turns out not, the fermentation process can be used as an alternative to making high-quality livestock feed. In addition to being very simple to make, making feed by fermentation also saves time and money, because farmers are no longer busy with herding or grazing. This horizontal mixer machine has a capacity of 100 kg / Batch. In making this machine includes manufacturing processes such as: welding, grinding, drilling, bending, cutting torch or gas cutting, and non-permanent joints, namely nut and bolt joints. The components of the machine are: frame, tube, double screw, axle shaft, bossing, gear box, housing bearing, block bearing, pulley, v-belt, and electric motor. And then assembled and put together into a machine. From the above explanation, the following conclusions can be drawn: 1. Horizontal mixer machine with a tube diameter of 60 cm and a width of 90 cm, is capable of mixing 100 kg/batch of animal feed. 2. Horizontal mixer machine using a double screw produces a more homogeneous mixture compared to using the manual method.

Abstract

This Community Service Program focuses on managing micro-business-scale food production waste. The activity was carried out at Pakcik Tanjung Morawa Roti MSMEs in the Tanjung Morawa area. These MSMEs produce used eggshell waste and cooking oil every day. The waste has not been managed systematically and could pollute the surrounding environment. This program aims to increase partners' awareness of the value of organic waste. The program also introduces the concept of waste utilization as an alternative energy source.  The activity's approach is educational and informative through field visits. The methods used include observation, interviews, and two-way discussions. The team conveyed the potential of eggshells as a source of calcium oxide.  Calcium oxide serves as a biodiesel catalyst from waste cooking oil. Activities do not yet include technical training or process demonstrations. The activity results showed an increase in the partners' initial understanding. Partners show interest in sustainable waste management. This program results in a mapping of potential waste and partner needs. The output of the activity is documented in reports and follow-up plans. This program is the foundation for the next stage of technology assistance. A simple approach is assessed based on the partner's capacity. Activities support waste reduction and community-based environmental education.
