Abstract

This research was conducted to study the effect of catalyst type of CoMo/USY and the reaction time on the deoxygenation reaction of 4-methoxyphenol. The catalyst type used were CoMo/USY, Co-Mo/USY, and Mo-Co/USY. The product was analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The activity of the Co-Mo/USY catalyst is higher than CoMo/USY and Mo-Co/USY, it can be seen from the value of total yield and the selectivity. The Co-Mo/USY catalysts shows a significant increasing on the total yield percentage (from 3.71 % to 9.41 %) during catalytic testing. The Co-Mo/USY catalyst has a highest selectivity toward 1,4-dimethoxybenzene product when the reaction time was one hour (0.92 %) and selectivity toward 1,4-dihidroxybenzene when reaction time two hours (0.43 %).

Abstract

The preparation of geopolymer from coal fly ash (CFA) solid waste of Jepara PLTU has been carried out by activating CFA using a 10 M NaOH solution and Na2SiO3. Characterization of CFA and geopolymer using X-ray fluorescence (XRF), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) spectroscopy. The adsorption process was studied under parameters including pH, geopolymer mass, contact time, and initial adsorbate concentration. The optimum conditions for the adsorption process of basic yellow 2 dye with fly ash-based geopolymer were optimum at solution pH of 11; adsorbent mass of 0.15 g; contact time of 120 minutes; and initial concentration of 80 ppm, while methylene blue adsorption was at solution pH of 11; adsorbent mass of 0.15 g; contact time of 120 minutes; and initial concentration of 60 ppm. Coal fly ash, a solid waste product from the Jepara PLTU, can be used to produce geopolymers through geopolymerization in the presence of activators such as NaOH and Na₂SiO₃. The adsorption capacities of these geopolymers for basic yellow 2 and methylene blue dye solutions are 26.55 and 19.825 mg/g, respectively.

Abstract

Electro-ion exchange was carried out to synthesize Ni2+/natural zeolite at room temperature using various concentrations of Ni(NO3)2 of 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, and 2.0 M, zeolite wetting times of 0 and 24 hours, electrolysis times of 1, 2, and 3 hours, and voltages of 7.5, 15, and 28.4 V. The amount of Ni2+ that can be impregnated in the zeolite was monitored with Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS). The Ni2+/zeolite formed was characterized for its total acidity. The optimum conditions for this process are 28.4 V, 3 hours, and 0.1 M Ni(NO3)2. Under these optimum conditions, the Ni2+ content of the natural zeolite was 0.04 mmol/g, with a total acidity of 2.5 mmol/g. The increasing trend in the amount of Ni2+ content matched the trend in the total acidity. The synthesized Ni²⁺/natural zeolite is expected to be applied as a catalyst in reactions such as hydrogenation and hydrocracking.
