Abstract

Indonesia's renewable energy penetration (12.3% in 2022) lags significantly behind 2030 targets (19-23%), with Cilegon City facing 1,167 unelectrified households and rising waste generation. This study assessed renewable energy development potential through LEAP-based electricity demand modeling (2023-2033) and technical-economic evaluation of solar photovoltaic and Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) systems. Meteorological and waste generation data informed engineering calculations and financial feasibility analysis. LEAP projections indicate residential electricity demand reaching 728.1 MWh per household by 2033, driven by 13.9% population growth. Off-grid solar PV systems demonstrate viability with Rp. 5,774/kWh levelized cost for unserved households. The proposed UPTD 3 Merak RDF facility shows strong economics: 22 tonnes/day capacity, 2-year payback, Rp. 12.5 billion NPV, and 3.01 benefit-cost ratio. Findings reveal that institutional rather than technical barriers impede deployment, highlighting needs for standardized subsidies, clarified jurisdictional frameworks, and municipal-utility partnerships. This research advances urban renewable energy planning by integrating bottom-up energy modeling with localized assessments, providing replicable frameworks for Indonesian cities pursuing energy transition and environmental sustainability goals.

Abstract

The Asteraceae family has a wide distribution supported by its adaptive capabilities, including seed morphological traits that influence physiological performance. This study aims to determine the morphological characteristics, physiological performance of seeds, and their correlation in members of the Asteraceae family at the foothills of Mount Ungaran. The findings of this study can also be applied and provide opportunities for further research on seed physiology, particularly in Asteraceae species. The observed parameters in this study include morphological traits (growth habit, achene type, achene length, pappus type, and pappus length) and physiological traits (maturation period, imbibition, germination percentage, germination rate, mean germination time, and vigor) in Asteraceae species at the foothills of Mount Ungaran. The study employs analysis of variance (ANOVA) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to assess the significant influence of species differences on seed physiological traits and the strong correlation between morphological and physiological characteristics. Species variation significantly affects seed trait diversity, with morphology playing a crucial role in determining physiological performance and supporting adaptive strategies for survival.

Abstract

This study investigates the performance improvement of an induced draft, counterflow cooling tower after replacing the existing Cleanflow fill with Cleanflow Plus. One cell (E) was upgraded while four cells (A–D) served as the baseline under CTI ATC-105 procedures. Measurements included outlet temperature, wet-bulb temperature, circulation flow, and fan power. Results show that Cell E achieved a higher cooling range (9.20°C vs. 8.63°C average) and a lower approach (6.29°C vs. 6.87°C average). Heat-transfer capacity increased from 37.12 MW average to 39.60 MW (+6.68%). Tower capability improved from 89.00% average to 94.47% (+5.47% absolute, +6.1% relative). Number of Transfer Units (NTU) increased significantly from 2.341 to 2.889 units (+23.4%), and effectiveness improved from 71.5% to 75.9% (+6.1%). Evaporation increased from 1.21% to 1.29% (6.6%), while electrical fan power was 149.65 kW (+2.4% relative to baseline). These enhancements are attributed to the higher specific surface area (140.7 m²/m³ vs. 127.0 m²/m³, +10.8%) and improved wettability of Cleanflow Plus fill. The findings support phased implementation and further optimization across remaining cells.

Abstract

Klanceng honey is a type of honey produced by stingless bees. The characteristics of klanceng honey are a liquid texture and a more sour or bitter taste. The content of honey is influenced by the honey's food source, which can be seen from the pollen contained in the honey. Identified pollen can be used to indicate the characteristics of the plants that serve as bee food sources. The purpose of this study was to determine the diversity of pollen sources in klanceng honey from Penggung Village, Boyolali Regency; Kebonrejo Village, Magelang Regency; Ceper Village, and Ngemplak Village, Klaten Regency, which can be used to identify plants that serve as bee food sources and be used to label honey based on its food source. The sampling method used exploratory sampling with purposive sampling. The pollen analysis method used acetolysis. Data analysis used descriptive analysis. The results of melisopalinology showed that there were 26 plant pollen families contained in the four klanceng honeys, with coconut (Cocos nucifera) pollen being the most dominant. Klanceng honey from Ceper and Kebonrejo villages is monofloral, while honey from Penggung village is bifloral, and honey from Ngemplak village is multifloral. The conclusion of this study is that the plant diversity of klanceng bees' food sources is diverse.

Abstract

Shallots are bulb-shaped commodities that are difficult to maintain in new conditions because they are easily damaged. An effective effort to prevent deterioration of food quality during storage is by coating it using nano chitosan. The effectiveness of nano chitosan is influenced by particle size which related to the ratio of chitosan and STPP (sodium tripolyphosphate). This study aimed to determine the effect of nano chitosan coating with the addition of different ratios of chitosan and STPP and the appropriate ratio of chitosan and STPP on nano chitosan as a coating to maintain the quality of shallot bulbs (Allium ascalonicum L. var. Bauji). This study used a completely randomized design (CRD) method with four treatments and five replications. The treatments of this research were P0= Control, PI= Nano chitosan ratio of chitosan: STPP 1:3, P2= Nano chitosan ratio of chitosan:STPP 1:4, and P3= Nano chitosan ratio of chitosan:STPP 1:5. The variables of this study were the percentage of damage, the percentage of diameter shrinkage, weight loss, color, hardness, and moisture content. Data were analyzed using the ANOVA test and continued with the DMRT test. The application of nano chitosan coating on shallot bulbs could reduce damage, shrinkage of tuber diameter, weight loss, color, hardness, and decrease in water content better than the control treatment. The best results were shown by treatment P3 (1:5) with a percentage of damage of 8%, diameter shrinkage of 20.20%, weight loss of 18.40%, total color change of 54.45, hardness of 226.23 N, and a decrease in water content of 4.65% at the final water content of 79.09%.

Abstract

Indonesia, as the world’s largest palm oil producer, generates significant quantities of oil palm frond (OPF) biomass that remain underutilized. This study evaluates the technical characteristics and economic feasibility of converting OPF into energy products in the form of chips and pellets. Laboratory analyses including proximate, ultimate, and calorific value tests were conducted to assess fuel quality, followed by a techno-economic evaluation using a 15-year investment horizon and an 11% discount rate. Results show that pelletization improves fuel properties, particularly by reducing moisture content and increasing calorific value under actual conditions. The higher heating value (HHV) of pellets reached 3,962 kcal/kg under air-dry conditions, compared to 1,746 kcal/kg for chips. On a dry ash-free basis, the calorific values of both products were comparable, indicating that moisture content significantly influences actual energy performance. Economic analysis indicates that pellet production under coal price equivalence schemes does not achieve attractive financial returns, with internal rates of return (IRR) below the discount rate and payback periods exceeding project lifetime. Sensitivity analysis suggests that a selling price of Rp1,000,000 per ton or a calorific value above 5,300 kcal/kg is required to reach financial feasibility. In contrast, chip production with low calorific value is economically unviable; however, improving chip quality to 4,060 kcal/kg results in a financially feasible scenario, achieving an IRR of 32.3% and payback within four years. The findings highlight that product form, energy quality, and market pricing mechanisms critically determine the viability of OPF-based bioenergy development.

Abstract

The increasing electricity demand in the operational area of PT Freeport Indonesia, particularly at the Amamapare Coal-Fired Power Plant, has encouraged the integration of renewable energy systems to reduce fossil fuel dependency and carbon emissions. This study aims to evaluate the technical, economic, and environmental feasibility of utilizing the coal stockpile roof area for a rooftop solar power plant installation. The research employed a quantitative descriptive approach using field observations, operational data, and PVsyst simulation. The results indicate that the available roof area of 18,825 m² can accommodate a 2.57 MWp photovoltaic system consisting of 4,720 bifacial modules and 25 inverter units. The system is capable of generating 3,809 MWh/year with a performance ratio of 83.86%. Economic evaluation shows that the project is feasible with a levelized cost of energy of 0.0987 USD/kWh and a net present value of 1,437,413 USD. In addition, the system has the potential to reduce carbon emissions by 50,299.7 tCO₂ during its operational lifetime. Therefore, the implementation of a rooftop solar power plant at the Amamapare coal field area is considered technically reliable, economically feasible, and environmentally beneficial.
