Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of TiO? photocatalysis with varying UV light intensities in degrading color, reducing iron content, and improving pH in peat water, which is naturally acidic and rich in organics. Methodology: Peat water was treated using TiO? doses of 1.5 g and 2.5 g under 24 W and 32 W UV lamps for 3–6 h. The analyzed parameters included color (TCU), pH, iron (Fe), and E. coli counts. The experiments used a batch reactor with multiple UV sources to enhance the photocatalytic activity. Results: Color was completely removed (100%) under all treatment conditions. The highest Fe reduction (97.8%) occurred using 1.5 g TiO? under 24 W UV irradiation for 4 h. The highest pH increase (62.33%) was achieved using 2.5 g TiO? under 32 W UV for 6 h, raising the pH from 3.00 to 4.87. E. coli was fully eliminated in all variations. Conclusion: TiO? photocatalysis effectively removed color, iron, and bacteria from peat water. However, although the pH improved, it remained below potable water standards, indicating the need for further treatment. Limitation: The study was limited to laboratory-scale conditions and did not achieve neutral pH levels, requiring additional post-treatment and field validation for practical application. Contribution: This study highlights TiO?/UV photocatalysis as a promising method for advanced peat water treatment. This study offers insights into optimizing treatment parameters for improved water quality in future applications.

Abstract

The amount of used cooking oil is increasing along with human activities. Used cooking oil that is disposed directly into the environment will give a negative impact on health and the quality of the environment, therefore it is necessary to purify the used cooking oil so that the used cooking oil can be reused. In this study, used cooking oil that has been used with heating time of 3 hrs, 5 hrs, and 7 hrs was used. The used cooking oil was purified using activated carbon made from 100 mesh bagasse with variations in weight of 2.5 g, 5 g, and 7 g, soaking time of activated carbon in used cooking oil were 24 hrs, 48 ​​hrs, and 72 hrs. The analysis used is the analysis of water content, free fatty acid content, and the amount of saponification. The results showed that the water content and saponification rate decreased with the length of contact time and the weight of activated carbon. The lowest free fatty acid content was produced when using activated carbon 7.5 g and contact time for 24 hrs.

Abstract

Indonesia as a large population country has the potential to become one of the largest consumers of sugar in the world. Indonesia's national sugar needs amounted to 3.2 million tons per year while domestic production was around 2 million tons. In the sugar industry, the benefits of evaporator tools are to thicken clear juice whose dissolved solid number is 7 - 11 oBrix into a thickened syrup with a dissolved solid of 55 - 60 oBrix, this process occurs through the process of evaporation of water content contained in the material. In one sugar factory, the type of evaporator used is a Semi-Kestner Evaporator with the quintuple effect principle. One of the biggest challenges of evaporators is the decrease in heat value of the evaporator due to the onset of mineral crust that inhibits heat transfer. On September 7th, 2021 Q evaporator 1 is at 135874.8 Kw and on October 26th, 2021 Q evaporator 1 is at 121399.2 Kw. Based on the results of data observations on the evaporator carried out in September 2021 and October 2021, it can be concluded that the decreased heat transfer will cause the evaporator's performance in evaporating water from the sap material (clean juice) so that the material flow rate is getting bigger. Efforts that can be made to overcome this are to carry out mechanical cleaning or chemical cleaning per 28 days of the grinding process, to remove crusts on the tube calandria evaporator.

Abstract

An eggshell is estimated to have around 10,000–20,000 pores; this condition created a chance for the eggshells to be used as an adsorbent. This research aims to activate egg shells used as an adsorbent. Egg shells were applied as an adsorbent in solutions of lead (Pb) and iron (Fe). Test parameters for adsorption capacity were carried out on the optimum mass and absorption contact time with lead (Pb) and iron (Fe) while using the eggshell waste as an adsorbent. The adsorbent quality of egg shells was tested using parameters such as ash content, water content, and adsorption capacity towards methyl blue. This research aims to utilize egg shells as an adsorbent to absorb lead (Pb) and iron (Fe) content using an adsorption process. There are 3 stages of a method for this research to establish: adsorbent preparation, adsorbent activation, and the adsorption process. The adsorption process was carried out with variations of the mass sample, which are 0.75 grams, 1 gram, 1.25 grams, 1.50 grams, and 2 grams and time variations when contact occurred in 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 minutes. The outcome of this research showed that the highest adsorption capacity at the optimum mass of Pb metal was 1.5 grams at 98.914% and for Fe metal at 96.386%. The highest adsorption capacity results were influenced by Pb metal contact time in 40 minutes, which was 99.30%, and the best capacity for adsorption of Fe metal was at a contact time in 50 minutes, which was 99.82%.
