Abstract

Research on the effect of cellulose and kaolin addition to alginate-cellulose-kaolin composites' characteristics as a slow-release agent of urea fertilizer has been done. The technique used in composites' preparation is an extrusion technique using 2% CaCl2 solution as a cross-linker. The compositions of alginate-cellulose-kaolin were varied to determine their effect on composites' characteristics such as diameter, color, swelling ratio, entrapment efficiency, and release of urea. The results showed that the diameter of beads in wet condition produced ranges from 2.98 to 3.54 mm, whereas the diameter of dry beads ranges from 1.22 to 1.92 mm. The addition of cellulose and kaolin affected the color of the beads produced based on CIE Lab analysis. The value of the swelling ratio decreased with the addition of cellulose and kaolin. The entrapment efficiency of urea in beads obtained ranged from 37.25 to 45.06%. The release of urea in aqueous media showed that cellulose and kaolin's addition into the alginate affected the amount of released urea.

Abstract

Sasirangan liquid waste contains contaminants that are quite dangerous, characterized by high values of total dissolved solids and dyestuffs. This study aims to determine the effect of dose and pH on chitosan-epichlorohydrin macropore beads. The parameters of the measured waste are total dissolved solids and dyestuffs. The process of absorption of sasirangan liquid waste characterizes by FTIR. The results showed that chitosan-epichlorohydrin beads that interacted with sasirangan liquid waste had optimum results at a chitosan dose of 600 mL/L, with a decrease in the total value of dissolved solid by 2161 mg/L and a decrease in dye by 84.78%. Chitosan-epichlorohydrin beads at pH against total dissolved solid gave optimum results at pH 7 with a reduction in the total dissolved solid value of 2269 mg/L, while pH against dyestuffs gave optimum results at pH 3 with a decrease of 94.09%. The interaction between chitosan and chitosan-epichlorohydrin beads occurred a shift in wave numbers from 943 cm-1 to 932 cm-1 showing the C-O-C group and the chitosan-epichlorohydrin beads spectra with waste at wave numbers 3013-3618 cm-1 to 3007-3631 cm-1 the O-H vibration group overlapped the N-H vibration and showed the result that the beads Chitosan-epichlorohydrin/adsorb sasirangan liquid waste.
