Abstract

Biodiesel can be produced from plant and animal oils by transesterification reaction using homogeneous or heterogeneous catalysts. In this study, we prepare a biochar-based catalyst, as a heterogeneous catalyst, for transesterification of used cooking oil. The biochar was made by the pyrolysis of the solid waste from the oil extraction of Papuan red fruit (Pandanus conoideus). After the pyrolysis, the solid was immersed in KOH solution to provide the kalium in the produced biochar. The biochar was then sulfonated by H2SO4 5M for 15h at 120°C. Afterwards, the catalysts were characterized by BET for surface area measurement, FTIR for functional groups on the catalyst surface determination and XRD for successive crystallography characterization. The catalytic performance was studied by conducting transesterification of used cooking oil using methanol with the prepared biochar-based catalysts. The transesterification optimum conditions were found to be oil to methanol molar ratio of 1:15, temperature of 60°C, reaction time of 2 hours and the catalyst amount of 3% of the oil weight. Furthermore, the highest biodiesel yield was obtained by the catalyst prepared from biochar that was sulfonated with 5M H2SO4 solution

Abstract

Sub-Surface Flow Constructed Wetland (SSF-CW) is one of the engineered of sewage treatment systems built and designed involving aquatic plants, soil or other media and related microbes, with more controlled treatment using sub-surface flow types. The purpose of this study was to determine the ability of aquatic plants to reduce of chromium (Cr) in wastewater, to understand the effect of fly media ash and gravel media in the constructed wetland system in reducing chrom  in wastewater. The Constructed Wetland was designed made of plastic with the Sub-Surface Flow Constructed Wetland (SSF-CW) model with 3 zones, zone 1 which is inlet zone and zone 3 which is outlet having dimensions of 37 x 54.5 x 60 cm, while zone 2 which is a reaction zone with dimensions 75 x 52.6 x 43.5 cm. The results showed that overall chrom removal from wastewater in RI, RII, RIII was 85.76, 93.24, and 74.69%, respectively. During the study, there was a growth of the plants, indicated by the presence of new shoots and an increase in the weight of plants. The kinetic model for reducing chromium content in wastewater at the RI, RII and RIII reactors follows the first order equation with a value of k value of 5.3411; 2,4006; and 0.1330.
