Abstract

Indonesia is one of the salt producing countries that use sea water as a source of raw materials, the quality of salt produced is influenced by the quality of sea water. The resulting average salt quality contains 85-90% NaCl. Those salt quality are still below of the Indonesian National Standard (SNI) for human salt’s consumption sodium chloride content is 94.7 % (dry base) and for industrial salt 98,5 %. The improvement of seawater salt quality can be done by several methods: leaching (hydro-extraction), re-crystallization without chemicals or with chemicals, and ion exchangers. In this study we studied the improvement the quality of seawater salt by hydro-extraction method. The objective of this research to improve the quality of seawater salt by hydro-extraction method. The hydro-extraction is a method to improve the quality of salt by washing with saturated salt solution, this method influence by size of salt (diameter), time of hydro-extraction, saturated salt solution concentration and recycle time of saturated salt solution. Based on the results of the research, the hydro-extraction method can produce salt with purity 99,34 % NaCl. The condition is achieved at 30/40 mesh salt size and the time of use of saturated salt solution 5 times.

Abstract

Precipitated silica is a silica product, containing silica, a white powder, a large enough porous and nano particle sized. The precipitated silica products are needed to support the operation of various types of industries such as automotive tire industry, rubber industry, cosmetics industry, electronics industry, agriculture and others. This precipitate silica can be produced by a chemical reaction process between the sodium silicate solution and various types of acids such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, acetate and other acids. In this study, the source of silica was obtained from a pumice while precipitation formation was carried out with the use of carbon dioxide gas (CO2). The sodium silicate solution was obtained by extracting the silica contained in a pumice with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution and heated to 100C for 1 hours. The carbon dioxide gas is injected into the aqueous solution of sodium silicate in a bubble column reactor and there is a reaction to form a precipitated silica. Based on research results found that the quality of precipitated silica has a quality: white colors, 85-90% silica content, 12-20% aluminum oxide content and surface area 108-227 m2/g. The

Abstract

The separation of heavy metals, zinc (Zn) and chromium (Cr), in biosolid waste can be carried out by an extraction process using H2SO4 as a solvent. The extraction process was carried out with a variation of time agitation and sulfuric acid concentration. The extracted cake was then analyzed using the atomic absorption spectrophotometry (AAS) method. The most effective reduction in Zn and Cr levels was obtained at 120 minutes and a solvent concentration of 1.5M with an efficiency of 98.80% and 97.89%, respectively.
