Abstract

Until now, the application of a combination of biological, physical, and chemical methods to eliminate contaminants from the rubber industry wastewater has not been reported. The purpose of our investigation is to analyze the use of membrane techniques and the effect of pre-treatment of industrial rubber wastewater—pre-treatment by ozone on the performance of the modified PES-nano ZnO membrane. Modified PES-nano ZnO membranes were made with phase inversion techniques and membrane performance based on flux and rejection. Filtration processes with cross-flow filtration systems and ozonation time variations were 1, 2, 3 hours. The ozonation process influenced membrane rejection. The membrane rejection value increased to 89.6%, and ammonia decreased to 4.3 mg/L. The flux value increased to 10.2 L.M-2.h-1 in 1h Ozonatian and decreased with the increasing of filtration time. Pre-treatment with ozonation can increase membrane selectivity and extend membrane life during the filtration process due to reduced fouling. The pre-treatment process time with 3 hours-ozonation was the most violent rejection even though the flux value has decreased

Abstract

Polyethersulfone (PES) is the most common material in various medical and water treatment applications because of its excellent mechanical and thermal properties. The hydrophobicity of polyethersulfone is considered as one of the main drawbacks because the hydrophobic surface causes a high biofouling effect on the membrane, so it has limitations in using Polietersulfon PES membrane technology. Modification of PES membranes is an important topic to be continuously developed to improve the properties of PES membranes. Membrane modifications focus on increasing the hydrophilicity, selectivity, and stability of membranes that are expected to be used commercially. Modifications were made to change the hydrophobic membrane surface into a hydrophilic membrane with good mechanical properties by introducing hydrophilic properties and functional groups to the polyethersulfone membrane surface. This review includes reviews and discussions on modifying PES membranes by mixing, coating, and grafting methods. In particular, adding functional groups to polyethersulfone is a suitable method for introducing hydrophilic properties. The addition of nanomaterials to the surface of the polyethersulfone membrane by mixing, coating, grafting, and combinations significantly increases the surface of the membrane, and all modifications affect the surface roughness of the membrane.

Abstract

In crude palm oil (CPO) processing industries, bleaching is important to remove unwanted impurities. Most industries use various bleaching earth with 0.8-2% w/v concentration during the bleaching process. As bleaching earth is single-used for the bleaching process, materials with higher adsorption ability are preferable to reduce the use of bleaching earth. This study aimed to evaluate the performance of bentonite/nano SiO2 composite (BE-SiO2) as bleaching earth in the bleaching process of CPO. The prepared BE-SiO2 was used in the bleaching process with various BE-SiO2 concentrations (0.1-1.3% w/v), process duration (0-2.5 hours), and process temperature (70-150°C). From the results, the rise in BE-SiO2 concentration during the CPO bleaching process initially led to a decrease in the β-carotene concentration, acid content, free fatty acids (FFA), and DOBI number up to 1% w/v of BE-SiO2. Subsequently, these parameters exhibited an increase with the addition of BE-SiO2. The bleaching process effectively reduced the β-carotene concentration, acid content, FFA, and DOBI number within the first 1.5 hours of operation. While a higher amount of β-carotene was adsorbed during the adsorption process at higher temperatures, the bleached palm oil (BPO) quality was compromised due to the heat. The results showed that the most effective condition of the bleaching process was performed with 1% w/v BE-SiO2 concentration for 1.5 hours at 90°C. From those conditions, the BPO had a β-carotene concentration of 312.311 ppm, water content of 0.112%, acid number of 0.0076, FFA of 4.864%, DOBI number of 1.311, and red/yellow of 1.5/15.

Abstract

Torch ginger (Etlingera elatior) contains secondary metabolites that have antibacterial potential. The production of torch ginger extract in Indonesia is still limited. However, market demand increase because pharmaceutical industry is starting to use the torch ginger extract. Furthermore, the growing utilization of torch ginger will enhance the economy of torch ginger farmers. This study aims to compare the extraction efficiency of maceration and soxhletation methods in obtaining bioactive compounds from torch ginger using ethanol, methanol and n-hexane as solvents. The results showed that in the maceration method, ethanol solvent produced the highest yield of 15%, methanol 7% and n-hexane 3%. In soxhletation method, ethanol and methanol solvents produced yields of 15% and 13% respectively, higher than n-hexane only 1%. Overall, soxhletation method with ethanol solvent was the best condition for torch ginger extraction. GC-MS characterization showed the presence of bioactive compounds such as 2-Chloropropionic acid, Boric acid trimethyl ester, Silane dimethoxymethyl and Octadecanoic acid methyl ester which contribute to the antibacterial activity in torch ginger essential oil.

Abstract

Waste from the tofu industry is a byproduct of the tofu production process that can have negative environmental impacts if not managed properly. CV. Dapur Tahu still discharges liquid waste directly into the river, posing a potential threat of river water pollution. Although a new reservoir and waste disposal channel are under construction, there is currently no effective waste treatment facility in place. To address this issue, a tofu wastewater treatment facility utilizing filtration technology is proposed due to its simplicity of operation, durability, and high efficiency in removing organic contaminants. The technology comprises a multi-stage filtration process involving sand filters (pumice, zeolite, and activated charcoal) combined with ultrafiltration membrane technology, complemented by a monitoring system consisting of TDS, pH, and temperature sensors. The multi-stage filtration process is capable of reducing TDS levels to 160 ppm, resulting in visibly clearer wastewater compared to the initial turbid white condition. The installation of IoT-based monitoring devices in the wastewater treatment process significantly aids in real-time water quality monitoring, accessible via mobile phone screens.

Abstract

Indonesia is one of the leading Pulp and paper producers globally, with an estimated annual growth rate of 3.5%. However, domestic production has not yet fully met the domestic needs and export demand for paper. Currently, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and chlorine dioxide (ClO2) are the primary bleaching agents used in Pulp and paper production. This research aims to evaluate the effects of H2O2, ClO2, and temperature on product quality parameters, specifically the tensile and tear indices. The variations of ClO2 used are 2%, 0.4%, and 0.7%; H2O2 concentrations are 0.1%, 0.2%, and 0.4%; and the temperatures used are 75°C and 85°C. The study found that the addition of ClO2 at a concentration of 0.7% resulted in the highest tensile index of 76.9 N.m/g and a tear index of 3.5 m.N.m²/g. The addition of H2O2 at a concentration of 0.1% resulted in a tensile index of 83.9 N.m/g and a tear index of 9.4 m.N.m²/g. Temperature variations did not significantly affect the tensile and tear indices, with the tensile index reaching 9.35 m.N.m²/g. The addition of H2O2 is essential as it enhances the bleaching process and improves the mechanical properties of the Pulp, which is beneficial for optimizing bleaching conditions to enhance product quality, thus meeting both domestic needs and export demands.

Abstract

Fermentation in coffee provides new modulation to the taste and sensory profile of coffee, thereby enhancing its flavor quality. Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) strains are used for fermentation in the wet process and have been proven to improve the overall flavor of the coffee. Therefore, in this study, coffee fermentation will be carried out using Lactococcus lactis subsp. to improve coffee flavor quality. The study begins with preparing the starter medium, starter culture, and fermentation. Subsequently, proximate analysis and a cupping test are conducted to assess the flavor profile of the coffee. The results of this study show that coffee fermentation can increase the number of LAB with longer fermentation times. Furthermore, proximate results indicate that fermented Robusta coffee contains 7.86% less fat compared to non-fermented Robusta coffee, which has 15.02% fat. The cupping test results for fermented Robusta coffee reveal a total score of 81, with the clean cup and uniformity aspects scoring 10. This total is higher than that of non-fermented Robusta coffee, thus proving that fermentation using Lactococcus lactis subsp. can improve coffee flavor quality.
