Abstract

Acoustic materials such as plastic carpet, gypsum board, styrofoam and plywood can be used to reduce sound intensity. Nevertheless, the existing research has generally focused on single-ingredient studies. In this research, the optimum thickness of each material will be sought based on its efficiency in reducing the sound intensity level. Besides that, the efficiency of various types of materials will also be tested for reducing the level of sound intensity. In this study, a resonator tube was used in making measurements. Acoustic materials used as test materials, both single materials and combined materials, can be placed in the resonator tube. The distance between the sound source and the detector is 30 cm, with the position of the detector right behind the acoustic material. Tests on a single material show that the measured sound intensity level decreases in proportion to the thickness of the acoustic material, with styrofoam has the lowest efficiency. Meanwhile, the combined material that combines plastic carpet material at a frequency of 2000 Hz has an efficiency value that tends to be higher than the combination of materials without carpet with efficiency >30%. However, at a frequency of 1500 Hz, all combined materials have efficiency values that are not significantly different. All models of material combinations are proven to be able to reduce sound intensity levels compared to single materials. Thus, it can be concluded that the combined material has the potential as an efficient acoustic material.

Abstract

Reduced graphene oxide (rGO) is a carbon-based material with high surface area and chemical stability, making it an effective adsorbent for water purification. This study investigates the green synthesis of rGO using Aloe vera extract as a natural reducing agent and its application in treating surface water from the Kapuas River, Indonesia. Graphene oxide was reduced with Aloe vera extract under varying time conditions, and the resulting rGO samples were characterized to confirm the reduction process. The structural and compositional analyses revealed that increasing reduction time enhanced oxygen removal and improved surface morphology. The application tests showed that rGO substantially improved water quality: color decreased from 225 to 95 PCU (57.8% reduction), turbidity dropped from 16.2 NTU to 1.2 NTU (92.4% removal), and dissolved iron concentration decreased from 0.65 ppm to 0.37 ppm (43.07% removal), with pH remaining stable near 6.5. Among all samples, rGO reduced for 120 minutes achieved the highest purification efficiency. These findings demonstrate the feasibility of Aloe vera-reduced rGO as a sustainable adsorbent for surface water purification.

Abstract

Activated carbon (AC) composited with TiO2 photocatalyst can be used as a material that can purify wastewater. This research aims to obtain the optimum particle size of AC as a buffer for AC. The work began by making AC from oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) waste with various particle sizes, namely 50 mesh, 100 mesh, 150 mesh, and 200 mesh. AC was synthesized by carbonizing the raw materials at 500 °C and then activated using a microwave oven at 500 watts for 15 minutes. Furthermore, AC/TiO2 composites were synthesized using a microwave oven under similar conditions. Spectroscopy Electron Microscopy (SEM) characterization was done to see the morphology of AC and AC/TiO2 composites. To determine the performance of AC and AC/TiO2 composites, the degradation process of methylene blue (MB) solution was carried out. Characterization with a UV-Vis spectrophotometer was done as a quantitative method to measure the level of MB degradation. The results of MB degradation for 6 hours of irradiation showed that 200 mesh particles achieved the highest efficiency of 86.19%. Thus, using TiO2 has been shown to improve the performance of AC, with those of 200 mesh degrading MB the most.
