Abstract

Pabrik gula aren Masarang Tomohon saat ini memiliki masalah rendahnya efisiensi produksi akibat pembentukan bongkahan gula selama tahap akhir pemprosesan gula. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk meningkatkan efisiensi proses produksi gula di pabrik dengan penekanan pada sorpsi air oleh gula dan pada penghancuran bongkahan gula selama produksi serbuk gula aren (gula semut). Umur simpan gula merah aren diestimasi dengan kurva isoterm absorpsi menggunakan rumus Labuza. Penghancuran gula dilakukan mula-mula melalui penentuan jenis gilingan, diikuti dengan membuat desain gilingan dan membangun konstruksi gilingan. Perhitungan umur simpan gula menghasilkan angka 6,4 tahun umur simpan. Konstruksi gilingan gula dibuat didasarkan pada gilingan martil (hammer mill) dengan kapasitas untuk mengurangi sisa produk hingga 1,28 persen.The Masarang Palm Sugar Factory in Tomohon is currently facing to the problems of the low efficiency production due to the crumble formation during the last step of sugar processing and the question of the shelf life of the product. Therefore the goal of this research is to improve the palm sugar processing at the factory by focusing to the understanding the water sorption by the sugar and to break down the sugar crumbles during the brown sugar powder production.  The shelf life of the brown palm sugar was estimated by the isotherm absorption curve followed by application of Labuza formula.  The sugar milling was processed by firstly determined the milling type, followed by designing the mill and then constructed it.  The calculation of shelf life of the sugar product was found as 6.4 years.  The sugar milling was constructed based on the hammer mill with the capacity to reduce the crumbles as low as 1.28 percent.

Abstract

Telah dilakukan penelitian pengaruh metode transesterifikasi minyak kepala ikan tuna (Thunnus albacares) menggunakan pereaksi metanol dan etanol.  Tujuan penelitian ini untuk menentukan pengaruh pereaksi metanol dan etanol pada proses transesterifikasi. Metodologi penelitian yang digunakan pada transesterifikasi minyak ikan tuna yaitu dengan menggunakan dua reaktan sumber alkil yaitu metanol dan etanol. Alkil ester asam lemaknya dianalisa dengan kromatografi gas. Transesterifikasi menggunakan pereaksi metanol dilakukan dengan katalis asam BF3 dan pereaksi etanol dilakukan dengan katalis basa NaOH dan KOH. Hasil penelitian menunjukan bahwa kandungan asam lemak utama dalam minyak ikan pada kepala tuna adalah DHA, palmitat dan linoleat. Transesterifikasi minyak ikan dengan metode asam ( BF3 dan metanol ) dan basa ( NaOH dan etanol ) menghasilkan komposisi beberapa asam lemak yang berbeda. Asam lemak DHA memiliki nilai tertinggi pada pereaksi etanol dengan katalis KOH yaitu 33.55%. Asam lemak palmitat 23,09% lebih tinggi pada pereaksi etanol dengan katalis NaOH. Asam lemak linolelaidat lebih tingi pada transesterifikasi menggunakan pereaksi metanol dengan katalis BF3 yaitu 20,98%Research on the effect of the transesterification method of tuna fish head oil (Thunnus albacares) using methanol and ethanol reagent has been carried out. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of methanol and ethanol reagents on the transesterification process. The research methodology used in the transesterification of tuna fish oil (Thunnus albacares) is by using two alkyl source reactants, namely methanol and ethanol where the fatty acid alkyl esters were analyzed by gas chromatography. Transesterification using methanol reagent was carried out with BF3 acid catalyst and ethanol reagent was carried out with alkaline NaOH and KOH catalysts. The results showed that the main fatty acid content in fish oil in tuna's head was DHA, palmitate and linoleic. Transesterification of fish oil using acid (BF3 and methanol) and alkaline (NaOH and ethanol) methods resulted in the slightly different of fatty acid composition. DHA fatty acid has the highest content in ethanol reagent with KOH catalyst, namely (33.55%). Palmitic fatty acid (23.09%) was higher in the ethanol reagent with NaOH catalyst. And linolelaidic fatty acid was higher in transesterification using methanol reagent with BF3 catalyst, namely (20.98%).

Abstract

This research was focused on the discovery of new environmentally friendly sensors based on nanoscale materials whose main purpose was to detect the presence of heavy metals in aqueous solutions. The environmentally friendly extracellular biosynthetic technique was applied to produce silver nanoparticles (AgNps). The reducing agents used were distilled water and ethanol extract obtained from fresh leaves of Lantana camara. The silver-containing extracts (Ag-extract) were then used to detect the presence of Hg2+, Cu2+, Pb2+, and Mn2+ in aqueous solutions by the colorimetric method using UV-visible spectroscopy. The colloidal synthesis of AgNPs was then monitored by the same method. The spectrum obtained showed peaks between 430 and 450 nm according to the Plasmon absorbance of AgNP. AgNPs' size and shape were characterized using the Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) technique, which showed the average size varies from 1.6 to 25 nm. The colorimetric data showed that Ag-extract, both of distilled water or ethanol solvents, was the best for detecting the presence of Hg2+ followed by Mn2+. On the other hand, Ag-extract in distilled water cannot detect Cu2+, Pb2+, and Mn2+ ions, while almost all Ag-extracts in ethanol solvents could identify the presence of these metals.

Abstract

KINETICS OF GASEOUS TOLUENE ADSORPTION ON CANDLENUT SHELL ACTIVATED CARBON ABSTRACT Adsorption kinetics of gaseous toluene on activated carbon prepared from candlenut shell had been studied. The research was performed by examining adsorption data, which was obtained in previous research, over several rate equations, which were: (1) Lagergren’s pseudo first order rate equation, (2) Ho’s pseudo second order rate equation, (3) Elovich’s equation, and (4) persamaan Ritchie’s equation. The result showed that the data of toluene adsorption on candlenut shell activated carbon fits the Ho’s pseudo second order rate equation and, hence, the model is the most applicable model for the adsorption. Calculation from linear regression of Ho’s pseudo second order rate equation gave the equilibrium adsorption capacity value of 56,069 mg g-1, second order rate constant of 3,54x10–4 g mg-1 min-1, and initial adsorption rate of 1,112 mg g-1 min-1. Keywords: adsorption, candlenut, activated carbon, toluene KINETIKA ADSORPSI GAS TOLUENA PADA KARON AKTIF TEMPURUNG KEMIRI ABSTRAK Studi mengenai aspek kinetika adsorpsi toluena pada arang aktif yang terbuat dari tempurung kemiri telah dilakukan. Penelitian dilakukan dengan menguji data adsorpsi yang telah diperoleh pada penelitian terdahulu menggunakan empat persamaan laju adsorpsi, yaitu (1) persamaan laju pseudo order pertama Lagergren, (2) persamaan laju pseudo order kedua Ho, (3) persamaan Elovich, dan (4) persamaan Ritchie. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa model kinetika dengan persamaan laju pseudo order kedua Ho adalah yang paling sesuai diaplikasikan untuk adsorpsi gas toluena pada arang aktif tempurung kemiri. Dari persamaan linear untuk model kinetika pseudo order kedua Ho diperoleh nilai kapasitas adsorpsi pada kesetimbangan sebesar 56,069 mg g-1, konstanta adsorpsi sebesar 3,54x10–4 g mg-1 menit-1, dan laju adsorpsi awal sebesar 1,112 mg g-1 menit-1.
