Abstract

Has done research about the system of purification of sea water into drinking water using solar energy. Utilization of solar energy as power naturally adopts the system of evaporation that occurs in a siklur water. Design and construction of tools created in the shape of a pyramid so that the absorption of thermal energy from the Sun can be maximum. Methods of work of the system is very simple, namely the souls imprisoned in the air that the pyramid would experience an increase in temperature significantly along with the searing Sun. The temperature of the hot air in the space pyramid is causing sea water which is at the bottom (floor) pyramid will evaporate and stick on the wall side of the inside of the pyramid. With the help of gravity, the water vapour will fall in the form of green ears water down the wall of the pyramid. The water will flow through the channel leading into the shelter is. This water is not already contain salt and pure water is so that it can be consumed directly. The results showed that the pyramid with size 160 cm x 160 cm 3 mm fiberglass-wall capable of producing fresh water as much as 2,100 mL. These results have been tested in the laboratory with a result salinity = 0,0 at T = 29,4 °C; TDS = 11 mg/L, 22.2 ms/cm conductivity, at T = 29.3 °C, no taste and no smell.

Abstract

The needs of electrical energy that increase year by year cause electrical energy crisis. Alternative energy sources which are potential to be developed as a substitute of fossil fuels are organic solar cells or DSSC (Dye Sensitized Solar Cell). The purpose of this study is to determine the value of efficiency resulting from Ketapang leaf extract and to determine the effect of compound content in Ketapang leaf extract toward the value of DSSC efficiency. This study investigate the efficiency value of the DSSC which are senzitized by the N-hexane, ethyl acetate, methanol extract of the Ketapang leaf and the mixture extract. The compounds from each axtract are characterized used UV-Vis and FTIR. The measurement results of the efficiency value from n-hexane of Ketapang leaf extract, ethyl acetate, methanol and the mixture were respectively 0.0051%, 0.09%, 0.12% and 0.22%. The results of UV-Vis characterization with maximum wavelength were respectively 667 nm, 665.9 nm, 665.9  nm and 209 nm. The FTIR identified an auxchrome group such as -OH,  C-N, -NH, and C-O as well as chromophore groups such as C=O and C=C. These data support that the existence of flavonoid and alcaloid compound in the mixture extract generate significant efficiency value.

Abstract

The availability of energy sources is dwindling so a renewable energy which has a  potential chance to be developed, such as solar panels, is needed.  The use of solar panels is still quite expensive in terms of manufacturing process. For this reason, a cheap solar panel based is developed, and it is called DSSC (Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell). The use of DSSC is developed in Indonesia, a country which is famous for its biological richness. In this study, pare leaves were used as photosensitizers obtained from the extraction process of maceration by various solvents. The DSSC test was done on four extracts including N-hexane extract, Ethyl Acetate, Methanol, and Combination of the three extracts. The highest value of efficiency obtained from each extract respectively are 0,03%, 0,04%, 0,14% and 0,30%. Characterization was done by examining the UV-Vis and FTIR spectral data. The result of UV-Vis analysis shows that wavelength for N-hexane, Ethyl Acetate, Methanol, and Combined extracts are 269,1 nm, 668,0 nm, 663,9 nm, and 6631 nm, respectively. FTIR results found that the chromophore and auxochrome groups were identified on all four tested extracts, namely; C = C, C = O, -OH, and -C-H groups.
