Abstract

This review critically examines the burgeoning field of research focused on the environmentally benign synthesis of metallic nanoparticles exploiting the unique properties and diverse array of marine macroalgae species. Harnessing macroalgal biomolecules as reductants and stabilizers, numerous findings have discovered the biosynthesis of silver, gold, iron oxide, zinc oxide, and other nanoparticles through a sustainable "phycosynthesis" technique without toxic chemicals. Extensively characterized for their morphologies and properties, these algae-mediated nanoparticles exhibit notable photocatalytic activities in degrading various organic dyes and pollutants. Particularly, over 90% degradation efficiency has been achieved for dyes like methylene blue, methyl orange, and rhodamine B utilizing nanoparticles produced from macroalgae such as Sargassum horneri, Syringodium isoetifolium and Ulva lactuca. The mechanism is hypothesized to involve photoexcitation generating reactive oxidative species on the nanoparticle surface that rapidly cleave dye molecules. Improved understanding of the roles of macroalgal biomolecules and optimization of synthesis conditions may enable enhanced catalytic performances. With their widespread availability and biodiversity remaining largely untapped, marine macroalgae prove promising as renewable resources for developing eco-friendly water remediation technologies through metal/metal oxide nanocatalyst design.

Abstract

Concrete production contributes radically to global carbon dioxide emissions. Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation (MICP) is an evolving technology that allows calcium carbonate to be precipitated on concrete through microbial metabolic activity. This review paper aims to present an overview of contemporary findings on the solicitation of MICP for advancing the properties of concrete, reducing carbon emissions from cement production, and elevating carbon sequestration. The results of previous studies have expounded that MICP treatment can enhance the compressive strength, stiffness, and durability of concrete. More importantly, MICP technology propounds the potential to moderately supersede cement content in concrete, thereby lowering carbon emissions from cement production. The microbial precipitated calcium carbonate may also accelerate the sequestration of carbon dioxide. While more research is still needed, MICP shows capacity as a sustainable technique for developing low-carbon concrete materials.

Abstract

Seconomy has become an integral part of the Indonesian economic system, especially after the implementation of policies that support the sustainability of this sector. In an effort to accelerate the growth of the sharia economy, Bank Indonesia (BI) plays an important role with various strategic policies implemented to strengthen this sector. The strategies implemented by BI not only include monetary policy, but also financial inclusion, development of the sharia capital market, and strengthening of sharia financial institutions. This study aims to explore more deeply the efforts of Bank Indonesia in encouraging the development of the sharia economy and its impact on overall economic growth. The research method used in this study is a qualitative descriptive approach with analysis of literature studies and relevant secondary data. Based on the analysis conducted, the strategies implemented by Bank Indonesia have proven effective in increasing the contribution of the sharia economy sector to Indonesia's Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Bank Indonesia, through comprehensive policies, provides significant impetus for the growth of the sharia economy, both in terms of macroeconomic policies and the real sector.

Abstract

This study assessed climate classification, hydrological conditions, and agricultural vulnerabilities in Pangkalpinang City, Bangka Belitung Province, Indonesia, using a 65-year (1959-2024) daily meteorological dataset. Climate classification revealed a dominant Af (Tropical Rainforest) type by the Köppen-Geiger method (occurring in 56 out of 66 years) with high precision (0.89-1.0) and a C1'As (perhumid mesothermal) classification predominating according to Thornthwaite (64 out of 66 years). Trend analysis showed a likely not significant temperature increase (approximately +0.02°C/year) and shifting precipitation patterns, with mean annual rainfall at 2289.84 mm and an annual precipitation concentration index (PCI) of 8.924, indicating a moderately irregular rainfall distribution. Hydrological analysis showed an average potential evapotranspiration (PET) of 0.284 mm, a soil moisture content of 99.751 mm, an average surface runoff of 4.577 mm, and 51 annual flood risk events, exhibiting a humid regime. Mean crop water requirement (CWR) was 4.857 relative units, and we observed a strong positive correlation (r=0.969) between the water requirement satisfaction index (WRSI) and crop water needs. The model validation exhibited a root mean square error (RMSE) between 0.1-0.5 and showed a stable Thornthwaite classification even with perturbations and the time series data analysis revealed the variability of parameters and a shift in temperature around the year 2000. These results emphasize the urgent need for localized climate adaptation strategies in Pangkalpinang.

Abstract

The vast quantities of rice straw residue generated every year present both a challenge and an opportunity. To address the challenge, this work took the opportunity by transforming rice straw waste into eco-friendly silica gel. Synthesis of rice straw-based silica gel was via sol-gel method with the calcination temperature of 700 oC for 2 h and the addition of sodium hydroxide 2 molar. Characteristics of silica gel and its raw material have been investigated using several techniques such as FTIR, XRD, SEM, and BET surface area. The synthesized silica gel showed obvious peaks of Si-O-Si and O-H, aggregated smaller particles, crystal nature, and high surface area. This innovative work contributes to agricultural waste management and the circular economy for a sustainable future.

Abstract

Marine macroalgae, or seaweeds, have emerged as promising sources for the green synthesis and stabilization of nanoparticles, offering remarkable potential in photodegradation processes. These abundant and renewable resources harbor a diverse array of bioactive compounds, including polysaccharides, proteins, flavonoid, and pigments, which can act as reducing, capping, and stabilizing agents. The integration of macroalgae-derived stabilizing agents into nanoparticle synthesis confers unique properties, enhancing photocatalytic performance and stability. This review comprehensively examines the role of marine macroalgae as stabilizing agents for bio-fabricated nanoparticles in photodegradation applications in particular for toxic azo dye degradation and organic compounds. It explores into the mechanisms of nanoparticle synthesis and stabilization, explores the diverse macroalgal species employed, and evaluates their photocatalytic efficiency against various organic and inorganic pollutants in wastewater. Furthermore, the review critically analyzes the challenges and future perspectives in this field, offering insights into the development of green, sustainable, and efficient remediation strategies for environmental contaminants.

Abstract

Yogyakarta is a densely populated province in Indonesia. In order to maintain the comfort and health of the people of Yogyakarta, this study aims to analyze the quality of drinking water sources used by residents of Depok District with a population density of 3691.76 people/km2 in 2021, by taking water samples in Condongcatur Housing. The research was conducted by water intake survey method and testing experiments based on SNI No. 01-3554-2006 through test parameters of odor, taste, turbidity, pH, TDS, nitrite, nitrate, chloride, iron, and manganese levels. Based on the results of organoleptic and instrumental testing, the tested water samples were found to have met the quality standards set by PERMENKES RI No.492/MENKES/PER/IV/2010. Thus, the source of drinking water used by Condongcatur residents has met the required qualifications. This may be because local residents were able to maintain their water quality from human activities that can pollute the water quality. Nevertheless, water quality must always be maintained at all times considering the population in the area is increasing. Keywords: Water, drinkable water quality, populated residential environment
