Abstract

This study aims to optimize the performance of fuel-injected motorcycles through the application of a Deep Neural Network (DNN) in the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) and the use of ethanol-pertalite fuel blends. The ethanol blends used in the study were 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%. Fuel consumption tests were conducted using the standard ECE/324 driving cycle, and emission tests were performed according to Euro 4 standards. Tests were conducted on a real track to evaluate fuel consumption performance and exhaust gas emissions. The results indicate that the 15% ethanol blend (E15) provided optimal engine efficiency, while the 20% ethanol blend (E20) resulted in the largest reduction in carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions. Furthermore, the DNN model with 50 neurons and a Sigmoid activation function demonstrated the best balance between accuracy (R=0.9868) and generalization (MSE=0.3843) in optimizing ignition timing and injection timing. In conclusion, the ethanol blends and the application of DNN in the ECU have proven effective in enhancing fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions, supporting the development of more sustainable transportation technologies.

Abstract

Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) is a critical aspect of agricultural activities that is often overlooked by farmers, particularly in rural communities. In Waturempe Village, West Muna Regency, most farmers depend on patchouli (Pogostemon cablin) as the primary raw material for essential oil production. However, manual patchouli processing not only results in low productivity and suboptimal yield quality but also exposes farmers to a high risk of workplace accidents. This community service project was designed to: (1) provide education and promote the implementation of OSH among farmers, (2) introduce and train farmers in the use of patchouli chopping machines as an appropriate technology, and (3) enhance farmer welfare by improving efficiency and productivity. The program was carried out through OSH awareness sessions, technical training on machine operation, and field assistance. The outcomes demonstrated an increase in farmers’ knowledge of OSH, improved skills in operating the machines, and up to a 60% increase in chopping efficiency compared to manual methods. Moreover, the more uniform chopping quality contributed to better essential oil quality. Overall, this initiative made a significant contribution to enhancing productivity, income potential, and the welfare of local farmers.
